[quote=Anonymous]Vienna Paint (a Ben Moore store) also has a colorist on staff. I've never had her to my home, but she's given me good advice in the store. Also, for what it's worth, my kitchen designer recommended sticking with the Ben Moore historical colors palette for our colonial. These are the colors whose code starts with HC. We used Edgecomb Gray as the base neutral for our main floor - love, love, love it. It's also helpful to search for specific colors on Houzz and see how they look in photos of other peoples' rooms (I know monitors will vary in how color presents, but it still gives you an idea of depth and how the color presents/reflects when on all 4 walls). Finally, once you narrow your choices, make sure to test colors on a poster-size piece of foam core and look at them in a variety of places throughout the day to see how they look/change in the light.
