Shabby Chic Paint colors should be warm and calming, while lending an open and airy feel to the room. Soft pastels and muted colors are popular shabby colors. A few ideas are antique white shabby blue, green and pink.
When choosing a paint color pick up a couple paint samples and tape them to walls and live with them a few days, see what they look like during the day and at night.
Add texture and visual impact with the use of decorative accessories and fabrics in complimentary colors. Shop flea markets for accessories, such as time worn wood photo frames, anything with flowers painted on it, vintage bottles and vases, wicker chairs and baskets. Basically anything that is worn with time. You be the judge of how worn you want it to be, items can be anywhere from gently worn to very rough worn.
The best thing about this style of decorating is that it easily fits in even the smallest budgets.
