I recently used BM Quiet Moments in a small (windowless) bathroom. Very pleased with the color; it reads more gray/green in our room.

BeverlyFLADeziner I appreciate your taking the time to offer your advice, and I realize I need to look for a lighter color for the ceiling. But I found the tone of your answer offensive. Would you like it if I commented on your design work using that same tone while pointing out - from a professional organizer's standpoint - that your ideas were impractical and lacked consideration of storage needs? Perhaps you would be willing to edit your answer to make it more professional. BM recommends Blue Veil to go with Stunning. Blue Veil is quite similar to SW's Upward but was too light and grey for my taste for a whole house wall color - but I can see where blue veil would be nice as a ceiling color for a room painted in Stunning. As it is, Stunning is an accent color and was picked to match our navy AGA range which is a focal point of the home. The 2'x4' board painted Upward doesn't look as awful as BeverlyFLADeziner makes it out to be - it actually looks lighter and more subtle than the SW color visualizer makes it out to be. We will have white shiplap wainscotting throughout, so that also neutralizes the Upward. I did switch from Sea Salt to Silver Strand for the den because Silver Strand works best with the couch and painting I have. I'll try Snowfall next for a ceiling color. Lori A. Sawaya I like Heron Plume by itself but next to the paint sample boards it looks too beige for my taste and didn't work with the wood beams and floor samples I have. Lynne Mysliwiec I like Ice Mist but it's almost identical to the trim color. I've never liked the feel of white ceilings so we've always had color on them. I've used silver strand and divine white for ceiling colors in past homes which had different color schemes. I did use ceiling bright white for a dark condo so I appreciate why everyone is recommending it.

See my remodel pictures in my profile if you’d like to see what Classic Gray looks like throughout my entire house. I wanted a neutral “white gray”, I tried many colors before landing on it. It’s truly neutral!

Thank you for thinking of my post Kitch4me, I love that combination and the colors I’ve chosen fit in that arena. Thanks JT, I love the Cornwall Slate. I was considering something very close to that for the shutters, but am going light because I’m not able to sample my colors, at least that way they’ll be easy to change if needed. Wood doors are nice, but I’m not in a position to change the one I have. Painting the house is the last project on the list for a while. This is the palette I ended up going with….Svelte Sage for the siding, Ancient Marble from the same strip for the shutters, Moody blue for the door color and Rainwashed for the porch ceiling. The card in the pic is Dove White, but I’ll take a look at the Antique White for the trim. That was my Mom’s favorite white! Thanks!!
