I like your inspiration pic very much. If you know anyone that has the BM Color Preview deck take a look at the OC color's. What color is your daughters furniture? If it's white take a look at colors near and around BM Halo. The white furniture will show that the walls aren't white but the wall color will still read almost white but w/ color if you know what I'm trying to say. Grey is tricky. So is white, blue, red, pink, green....and so on. Whenever you are trying to pick a color that color is tricky! Heck - black was tricky when I was trying to pick the right shade of black! Good luck1 Great quilt - great inspiration pic! Oheck out this site: She used many pale shades of greys on her walls and has a complete list of what she used where. Here is a link that might be useful: For the Love of a House

Yes, I have the actual chip of Herbal Escape. When I do look online at paint colors I don't look at the digital swatches, I look at photos of people's living rooms, bedrooms, etc. You are correct, monitors can't depict the colors accurately but it usually gives me a general idea. It can be very misleading also, as I saw several photos of SW Acier that looked like a beautiful Gray green but my actual chip is very dark gray with a slight purple hint in my house. I also remember being set on BM Gray Owl for the main area until the swatch went up...it was almost white with a very blue undertone.

I'm doing the same thing!! I wish people would comment because it's a big decision:). I've been researching gray's...pussywillow by SW, Benjamin Moore galveston gray (too dark for my taste but people say it's a good one), Harbor Gray...good luck to you

FWIW we had our whole house painted passive until a few years ago. It’s a nice grey. In our house it was on the cooler (but not blueish) side and we loved it. I also really like Zurich White which I guess is maybe more of an off white but that can look like a very very light grey/griege depending on the light. BM classic gray is another in that same area that might be worth a look.
