Babel’s Introduces Benjamin Moore’s New Color Stories Paint
Every color tells a unique story……

What do Lilianna, Summer’s Day, Perfectly Pesto, and Granny Smith have in common? They are paint color names for some of the new shades of green from the new Color Stories Paint Collection from Benjamin Moore.

Wait until you see this new palette of colors which has just arrived exclusively at Babel’s Paint and Decorating Store in Norwood, Ma.

What makes the Color Stories Paint System so extraordinary? “It’s all about the colors” says Jeanne Babel, of Babel’s Paint and Decorating Stores, “each one is truly unique.” These new paint colors reside in their own universe between current, existing shades and the range of hues is limited to 200. These new colors by Benjamin Moore have been carefully chosen for their versatility, compatibility, and dependability with a variety of architectural styles and lighting environments.

And unlike most other colors in the design industry these colors are formulated without black or gray tints and so many more pigments are required per color. The result is that these colors just work better with our customer’s fabrics and other décor elements.

With such an unprecedented array of truly unique and natural hues to choose from, creating your own color story has never been easier or more exciting. Inspired by nature, the senses, moments in time, found objects and pure imagination, each color tells its enticing tale. For example, one of our favorite gold tones is called Fireside Chat and on the back of the painted chip the color is described with these words “The fire’s cheery glow illuminates the room with a soft light, wrapping you in a blanket of warmth and happiness.” And now you can combine them into a personal palette and let them tell your story. So, we invite you to stop by Babel’s Norwood Paint and Decorating Store location for Benjamin Moore’s Color Stories Paint and take a look at our new Color Story Display – we think you’ll love it!

March Color of the Month


              March Color of the Month


The color of the month for March, Nantucket Fog AC-22, was chosen by designer Lynda Holich. Lynda says, “Nantucket Fog is a great color for a young man or teenager’s bedroom. Transitioning a teenage boy’s bedroom from the baby blue of his nursery into a mature and more livable space can be complicated and I am often asked for help in choosing the right color. Nantucket Fog is a beautiful, inviting blue that pairs well with a gray color palette. Not exclusive to a boy’s bedroom, this would make a beautiful color to compliment white cabinets, black granite, and stainless steel in a kitchen.”
