Blue, Blue-Gray paint colors? Pix?
Comments (3)We are going with Sherwin Williams Rain in our dining room, laundry, and a half bath. It is a blue with gray undertones, in my opinion. I bought one of the small sample sizes from sherwin williams to try it out to be sure and it is beautiful! I got the inspiration from this house...http://hallmarkhomesinternationalblog.wordpress.com/2011/05/03/wilson-bridge-wine-dine/...See MoreNeed a perfect Dark Navy/Slate Grey-Blue
Comments (9)Ellen Kennon has a range of gorgeous Full Spectrum Paint colors. Full Spectrum and Ellen Kennon have been discussed on this site many times. A search may turn up some helpful threads. If you are not familiar with FSPs they are fabulous colors produced without using black. The effects can be absolutely stunning! If you are wanting to create something special I urge you to check out FSPs and also take a look at the photos on Ellen's website. EK's colors are made with ICI paints. Ellen sends the formula for your chosen color to your local ICI dealer to mix for you to pick up. Mine is always ready within an hour or so of placing the order! I am linking Ellen's website below.

Comments (16)Oldbat2be, thank you so much for the mock ups! This was the kick in the pants I needed to talk to my contractor. I forgot to mention that our w/d will be white too so the cabs will likely clash with those, so I think we've got to paint. mdln, good suggestion -- I'm pretty sure they are warm. I'll check and see if cool lights help. daisychain01, thanks, reveal hopefully coming soon! raven, I just looked at Krypton and it is beautiful. I'm going out to get some samples tomorrow and will paint a sample board of my top 3 colors and put it in the room and report back....See MoreSearch for the perfect GRAY/GREY paints!!
Comments (10)lizziesma My current paint colors (2 out of 3) have LRV of 25 or lower, and the plan is to find light neutral grays with LRV above 50 (ideally, around 60). I think that should brighten up the room :) Karen Rose You have a beautiful house!!! Love your paint color. I need to run and grab (another) sample pot!! Rory, SW, PA Love your colors as well! so you have used 2 paints, like I am hoping to. :) They seem to go really well together. cat_ky I have been buying sample pots and paint few boards in each shade, and spread around the house. It is amazing to see how the colors look different, depending on the light, angle AND (surprisingly) size of my paint board!! I have well over a dozen sample pots, and now I find myself not letting my DH know that I have purchased yet another one. lol I wish I could find a good use for the sample paints. What a waste....See Moredecor64
