The Man and I used the Sherwin-Williams Harmony paint (10 Best Non-VOC, Low-Toxic Interior Paints) in our house and it's pretty cool. Low odor, covers pretty well and comes in pretty colors, but you're out of luck if you want something dark.

I just painted my bedroom w/ Ben Moore Eco-Spec. I thought the coverage was pretty lame - but I was painting white over yellow... eventhough the yellow was very pale, perhaps it is the color choice and not the paint. We slept in the room the same evening - no odor AT ALL.
And now - now I MUST ave a reveal light.
I am in lust

Oooh, I like the pretty glass version of Plant Nanny called Aquaglobes. http://aquastakes.com/aquaglobes.htm
Has anyone seen them locally (Seattle)?
