Sherwin Williams Color of the Month, Commodore, June 2021

Every month Sherwin Williamschooses a color to highlight—usually a trending color that has risen to the top. I've found it one of the best ways to stay current with my wall colors. Currently, I have 3 of their "color of the month" choices in my home—with one of my absolute favorites for any room, Cavern Clay. When there's so many paint colors to choose from, it truly helps to have the experts share a favorite.

So this month's color? Commodore —a rich, slate shade of blue. With this color top of mind, we're sharing a handful of pieces that would perfectly pair with this wall color. It's fun to dream!
