Walnut Hill Paint Company, located in North Dallas is, without a doubt, the best place to visit if you are embarking on a home decorating project, for your Dallas home. The large showroom includes displays of custom finishes designed by professional painters.

Some of the paint brands carried in the store are:

• Benjamin Moore Premium Paints
• Benjamin Moore NATURA Zero V.O.C. Coatings
• Pratt & Lambert
• Pittsburgh Paints
• Martin Senour
• Cabot Stain
• Olympic Stain
• Cook's Oil Glazing Liquid

You can sign up for wall glazing classes, color theory classes and more! I have spent many hours learning techniques from some of the area's well known faux finishers. Working as a designer, for many years, I depended upon the talented people at Walnut Hill Paint to guide me in my product choices and color selection.

Stop by the next time you need help with your next painting project. They are the best of the best!
