1. Good tips! The apartments we are renovating were in a creamy shade, which we had intended to keep. But the building, from the 1600s, is historically classified, and the historic monuments authorities, not us, get to choose the colors, at least of the outside. The windows and shutters had to be a pale gray. Let me tell you, the gray made the cream curdle. It no longer looked creamy but dingy and dirty. We decided not to fight the tide and did everything in shades of gray. It looks great.
    My point is that if you have something whose color you can’t change–maybe a large piece of furniture–make sure your paint colors work with it.
