Teal Ocean

Color Inspiration
Written By Miss Mustard Seed's Milk Paint Team

Let’s chat about May’s MMSMP Color of the Month. It’s our green-blue, Teal Ocean! 

Teal Ocean is the darkest color in our Coastal Collection. This dreamy shade of teal is more green than Flow Blue and is the color of the ocean's depths. It will grab your attention like the flashy tail feathers of a peacock. Let your cares drift away as you sink into its tropical beauty!

 
 

Teal Ocean is available in our new 100% natural, eco-friendly formula.

 
 

So, how do you finish your painted pieces? Teal Ocean changes colors from raw (no finish) to applying finishes. To see how this teal changes with each finish, take a peek at this photo:

 
 

Teal Ocean and the Coastal Collection

Teal Ocean pairs well with the colors of the Coastal Collection: Aqua Sky, By the Sea, Carolina Dune, Linen, and Sunkissed. 

 
 

Now, let’s look at a few pieces painted in Teal Ocean!

Add a Pop of Color

Teal Ocean is the perfect pop of color for any style! It pairs well with neutrals and wood tones. For a high-contrast look, pair it with bright colors like Sunkissed for a cheerful look! Vintage 61 Storehouse paired this Teal Ocean painted piece with yellow accents for a cute contrast look.

 
 

Or pair with dark brown wood tones or black for a sophisticated look. This piece by Flipped and Chipped Co. looks stunning with the body of the piece painted in Teal Ocean and the legs stained in a dark brown.

 
 

Teal Ocean and the Rustic Look

We love the look of distressed Teal Ocean pieces! The Upstream Home refinished this cabinet. It looks perfectly rustic with a white-washed top and drawer. 

 
 

Make your piece chippy for the ultimate rustic look, as seen in this dresser. You can create this look by sanding or using a resist.

 
 

This next piece, by For the Love Creations, is another beautiful rustic piece. They created this raised stencil using a thick mix of Curio. The entire piece was then painted in two coats of Teal Ocean, sealed with MilkWax™ Clear, then highlighted the raised stencil with MilkWax™ White, Saddle Brown, and Antiquing.
