Sixteen Best Shades of White Paint

In which we compare 16 of the best shades of white.

I'm searching for the perfect shade of white trim for our new house. I had no idea that there were so many different variations! Yellow-toned, blue-hued, bright, warm, cool, etc.

I read a bunch of articles online and put the top 16 most-recommended shades of white into Photoshop. Hope it helps someone else out there. :)

Choosing a House Color

Choose a house color, they said.
It'll be easy, they said.

Exciting and scary, all at the same time! What if the color I choose turns out to be hideous?!!
(My husband says we can just wear sunglasses and plant very tall trees around the new house. Awesome.)

After hours of research, breakdowns, comparisons, chocolate breaks, and throwing darts at color chips on the computer monitor, I've narrowed it down to 4 colors that I like. Our neighbor's house is also blue, so we're taking that into consideration. :)

Any help would be very welcome! (Click on a picture to view larger)
