Weathered Bark!
Sedate colors, evocative of weathered woods, make an excellent backdrop for calming interiors with great pops of color. "Taos Taupe" by Benjamin Moore is a favorite of mine; the colors in the images above are unknown. As always, you can click on the images above for a bigger version!

How festive. And brown.
Really though, nature knows color, and the desaturated, graying, worn browns of bark are the ultimate neutrals. In various shades of taupe, charcoal, rust, and dirt, these are colors that are as versatile as they are comforting. Bark colors aren’t really the same as the ever-popular reclaimed wood look we’re seeing so much of; bark is more of an ashy ying to reclaimed wood’s often red-tinted yang. Want to pair a vibrant turquoise with a bark-inspired neutral palette? — Go ahead. What about a tangerine infusion? — That works, too. These neutrals have so much potential, and are inspired by nature as all best neutrals are.
Enjoy your regularly scheduled Color Friday!

Paint It What I Tell You 
You need to come re-design my house for me. Seriously.
I suppose there could be some good things about opening a branch in KY…
