Lick do A4 low-tack stickers you can try in a room.
Also: white

We have a bunch of those sticky test cards on various walls to view at different times of day. Sadly I’m colourblind and can hardly tell the difference between the swatches anyway

How do folks on here choose and test colours?
Try loads of tester pots, lose the will to live. Pick one at random (sometimes a new one that you didn't even try) because you just want it done.

You can also just paint a sheet of A4 paper, then you can move it around and see how the light looks in different spots etc

Ugggh... We've repainted our first room - bluey-grey to purbec stone which is a taupe-grey. After leaving it a day we've decided we don't really like it in the evening as it goes properly taupe. Now the curtains and other bits don't match - they all now look blue.
Such a ball ache after smashing through on Sunday. The blue/grey was always a bit cold in the day and didn't quite work with the lighter floor in that room. But if we go back then it means I don't think we can go blue in the dining room.
