I had been looking for that perfect shade of paint for our living room for a while now. The paint we had on our walls is called Comforting by Behr. You can see in this picture what Comforting looks like compared to Tobacco Road.
I edited to add that the color Tobacco Road is not a Behr paint. It is a a Duron paint but you can have it mixed at Home Depot. Here is the formula in case you are interested. :) This is the formula for a quart.
and this is the formula for a gallon.
I really wanted a deeper color full of warmth. I thought about painting a shade of green but when I saw this paint color called Tobacco Road, I immediately knew this was the color for me. My sweet hubby didn’t think it was going to match the carpet we have or the shade I painted our fireplace. In case you’re wondering what I am talking about, Here is the link for my fireplace makeover.
Look at the after pictures! I am in love with this color! It gives off such a warm feeling. It is like a tannish (is that a word?) gold color. So pretty!
There is a lot of light coming in thru the window because I took off the blinds to clean them. I apologize for the glare on that picture.
Oh I love it! I can’t stop staring at my walls! ha ha!
It makes everything just “pop” on the walls!
So here I am jumping on the bandwagon of Tobacco Road fans. I love this color and I told hubby that I am so happy with this color that I won’t be changing the color again. He didn’t believe me. (rolling my eyes) Seriously though, I am so happy with this color!
I hope you have a wonderful day! Thank you for stopping by!
TA TA FOR NOW!

Woo Hoo! Sandra!!! I love it. It's the perfect color. I'm so glad you linked - I was wondering if maybe you didn't have time to finish the painting. I was ready to drive to Texas, take some pictures, and link for you :) Don't make me go looking for you, lol!
Thank you so much for adding your beautiful home to Woo Hoo! Wednesday.

Looks awesome Sandra!
Hi Sandra!
I agree... your new color Tobacco Road is perfect! Your room looks great! Is this color also a Behr paint? Thanks so much for stopping by!! Have missed ya!! Hugs!
Oh, Sandra, I so agree. Its perfect. It makes the room warm without making it too dark. Its just gorgeous. Mind if I steal that color for my living room, too?
I'm so happy you have found a color that 'makes you happy'.. I totally understand, I've changed my downstairs color three times in the last 5 years... can't seem to find it.. I'm going to go look at this color.. "Tobacco" you said....let me go read it again....
thanks

Hi Sandra, You chose a great color for your walls... Cozy and warm yet fresh! Just Beautiful,

I think it looks SO good, Sandra. I can see why you're thrilled! It is warm, and it looks good with your things. Love it!
Hope to see you soon, or as soon as the workmen finish and leave. I'm still tied up with men, and I hope it won't be for much longer. They hit snags they are trying to iron out. Hopefully soon and very soon.
XO,
Sheila :-)
Woohoo is right! Sandra this is a gorgeous color for your beautiful home! Love it! :)

Your room looks lovely!
