Using lavender in your home

Lavender needs testing beside trim because some whites make it look gray. Use it in bedrooms, baths, dressing rooms, or ceiling color with warm white, cream, light oak, pale gray, or sage. North light emphasizes the blue undertone. South light warms it slightly. Stay practical. Mauve and Pastel Mauve references can become sweet if the room also has frilly fabrics.

Frequently asked questions

Is Lavender blue or purple?

Lavender is purple with a blue undertone. That blue side is why it often feels cooler than lilac.

Can Lavender go on a ceiling?

Yes, pale lavender works well on bedroom and bath ceilings. Keep the wall color calm so it does not compete.
