Color Mixing and Combinations with Orange

Orange is such a fun color to use! On the color wheel, it is the mix of Red and Yellow. Depending on the tint or tone that you are looking at, orange ranges from being very bright and vibrant to a dark rust. In the Amy Howard At home line, we have a great One Step Paint color called Massey Hill and additionally have a Lacquer called Kumquat. Here is a sample color chart that I did mixing the Massey Hill and Bauhaus Buff One Step Paint colors.

One Step Paint in Massey Hill

When I am making a color chart, I usually pour out just enough paint for the palette

I like using a palette to see all the colors

For this color chart, I mixed Massey Hill and Bauhaus Buff adding 50% more for each

*When creating color combinations, it is always great to look at the 

color wheel to see what complimentary colors work well together

One of our Retailers, Joyce Shelton used the Massey Hill and Paige Blue 

One Step colors for her display cabinet

I love how this room feels very neutral with the tan, blue, and orange 

complimenting each other

Even pattern to mix the colors works well

How we see this color combination in nature

Great headboards

Fun flower arrangement

Great mix for wallpaper

How gorgeous is this crystal 

Love that lamp

With just a bit of the orange appearing, I love the pop that it adds to the room!
