You want to use gray with GO granite? i have GO and can't see gray working with it. To my eyes, the dark gray mirrors don't look right in that bathroom. Sorry. I have BM Lenox Tan on the walls and SW Rain on the ceiling. I matched the Lenox Tan perfectly with the tan color found in the GO.

My initial reaction was also that I don't think gray will work, but I think there are some "greige" colors that many here mention that just might. I think BM Edgecomb Gray for example (and hopefully others will chime in with more suggestions) which is very light and beige/gray cross, could work. In the photo you posted, the lighting itself looks very dark and I suspect that it's not a true representation. I think with a lighter wall color that the mirrors and all will come together nicely.

I would paint the walls first and once you have that color nailed down (not grey but maybe a warm pale blue-grey), then I'd pick a different mirror frame color. I would even consider going flat black. Do you really need the mirror in the middle?

You can't just incorporate "new" scheme into the "old one" when it's about existing hard finishes. It will look exactly what it sounds: new on top of old. Most such updates don't look successful.

I wouldn't attempt gray. But. I would attempt to find a greige, a really warm nice greige, the one that's leaning beige more than gray. This can work. This has even a potential to work out beautifully. But you'll need to find that color..

I would find that color first. Then, I'll see what to do about the mirrors. I'd either tie them with the general scheme(cream might work), or make them the color of the wall when you find the one you're pleased with, or maybe go for different frames altogether. These are a bit heavy..especially as there are three of them.

It's a nice bathroom. Don't fight it too much, tweak it just a little bit, bring in later accessories that will tie the colors together..say, cream and greige and some color..maybe a green plant that goes with everything:) it all will fall into place

PS I see you try to sample paint on the walls..don't do that, you'll never see the true representation off the color, because the existing background tweaks your perception of that color. The background should be pure white. Try all our samples on the pieces of white paper..either type the sample to the bigger piece of white paper and then on the wall, or just leave a white border around your sample where painting. Oh, and don't forget to write down in the corner what is what..you''ll be surprised how easy it is to get confused with all the names, when you're looking for the perfect shade of paint.

And. There is always an option to mix up custom paint. (Which I did for one of the rooms, couldn't find that perfect shade). The important thing is to ask the store to save the formula, under your account and name. So you'll be able to get more of it when needed.

I had GO in my previous house in both kitchen and master bath and used practical beige SW. It went perfectly and was not too dark.

I have the same GO in my kitchen. Yours and mine are the dark version. The picture that My3dogs posted is the light version and really is very different than the dark.

My GO has cream, brown and taupe. I agree that the gray mirrors don't work.

We used BM Power Buff in our kitchen, but I wouldn't recommend it in your bathroom. I agree with Monica. All the GO's seem to have differences, so go with the lightest color in your granite for the paint color.

I have Giallo Ornamental Light in my guest bath. I used BM Silver Mist to pull out the gray areas and cool down the warm colors. It's a little too blue though. I was shooting for a gray with slight blue undertone. I didn't like the blue greens as they can look minty, but now I think it needs a little green.

I'd like to repaint it in BM Wales Gray. When I was comparing paint samples, this color strip was less green than popular spa bath colors like SW Sea Salt.

Thank you all so much for your great input, I felt very underwhelmed with the bathroom once the gray mirrors went up, they just seem to overpowering. I also agree that I am fighting the color and style of what I have going on. So I can either paint the mirrors cream (I paid to have them installed) or paint them a soft cream (perhaps eliminate middle mirror) and find a nice greige color. Has anyone used BM revere pewter or can recommend light greige colors for bathrooms with GO?

If I eliminate the mirror in the middle, any suggestions on what to place in the middle? So I paid my handyman to hang these mirrors, are they worth painting cream or the same color as my trim or should I just start over with the frames? My husband will kill me if I change frames because I paid to have them hung however I want it to look right :(.

You could use a taller piece of art in the middle.

I would not remove the middle mirror. It has a function as a makeup station. If it was just a base cabinet than maybe I would remove it.

The mirrors need to be painted. The gray is throwing everything off. I would do that first before changing them. I am wondering why you didn't have mirrors made to match your cabinets?

I know you are frustrated, but you are not the first to make a "mistake" when renovating. It happens to everyone. Yours is an easy fix.

The mirrors would have needed cutting in order to be framed and because of the medicine cabinet on the side the mirrors me to be slightly smaller so I went to home goods and found mirrors and my contractor is there an offer to hang them so I just went with it LOL I should've taken my time with us

I agree with eld..there's a reason the middle mirror is there.

Can you paint the frames while they're on the wall? I mean, without taking them off?

I wouldn't know, but it's not like am a big specialist in painting. If yes-then maybe makes sense painting them first too. Logistically speaking.

I still would try to at least find the wall color by the time I'm painting the mirrors...to know what I will be working with.

Color of trim/your blinds will work nice; but what if you want to paint them in your wall color, just in different sheen? Will make them less prominent too.

Although I suspect they are much more proportional that they seem; the color is throwing them off, because it's very different from the rest, and it makes you concentrate on it=the mirrors seem heavier than they really are.

All the greiges that other people describe as perfect greiges-were too cool for me. No Elephant Breath, no Dove Wing, no Revere Pewter-they were very nice when I put them on the paper. Very greige. The moment I taped the paper to the walls-they became simply gray. And I didn't want gray. I wanted greige.

Well. Long story short-The room I wanted to be greige turned out to be the room when I mixed my own custom color..:) I don't know how it's called, I named it myself. I just went warmer and warmer until I loved what I saw.

I'm afraid it's trial and error.

Forget how they call the color, at some point...just try shades that might work, to your eye. You'd be surprised how little resemblance some paint colors bear with their names.

And I agree with eld that your mistake is an easy fix. Really.

I'm stuck with a prison-cell-looking-window in one of the rooms, because my husband insisted the grids of the window should be proportional to the grids of another window:) Now he agrees with me the grids should be proportional to the window itself, but it's too late lol.

Two threads?

no, three

Well I posted pics in the other thread and also gave a comment on the mirrors in that same thread, lol. Oh well.

Veronica your granite is beautiful. That pic is just lovely.

I apologize for multiple threads, I have never posted before or used this site and did it in error:(. All of yoir feedback and suggestions have helped a great deal.

Take a look at BM smokey taupe. It's a yummy beige, grey that goes well with most everything.

@Yayagal that sounds nice, do you have it in your house?

My daughter upgraded two bathrooms a couple of years ago and used the dark GO vanity tops. Even though I don't think a gray is the right direction for this granite, she actually used Revere Pewter in her husbands bathroom and it actually looked like a brownish gray in there and looked great. I have read many comments on here where Revere Pewter does not look gray, but leans more earthy/tan based on the light. You might want to look at that color.

She used Sea Salt in her bath and it looked good also. The odd thing is, her pieces of GO granite did not look like some that is see in pictures. It had a lot of different color flecks including a tiny bit of greenish blue which made the Sea Salt work.
