Would gray wall color look good in my bathroom? & advice on countertop
Comments (13)Thanks priairiemom. I picked up a sample of the Repose Gray & am anxious to try it on the walls. It is a very pretty color! Oh Wow! Thanks Tibbs! It's great to see a mockup. Wish I was that talented. It has me quite torn. But I'll start with trying the light shade first. Thank you to everyone for suggestions! :) I think maybe I should loose the valance? I looked at Lowes tonight to see if they carried the Delta champagne gold color so I could see if it could work with the polished brass on the shower door handles but they didn't have it (: Is there any other finishes you think could work with the polished brass?...See MoreGray Owl Cabinets - Kitchen wall color help!

Comments (3)I would start with your lighting. What kelvin bulbs are you using? We used SW Alabaster in my daughters house. It is the main wall color throughout but she has mixed it with gray accent walls in her kitchen/dining room. All ceiling, base and door trim is SW Extra White. The kitchen cabinets are an off white and island is dark gray with white subway tile. The Alabaster looks fine in her house and doesn’t appear yellow like yours though that can be the photo. It’s difficult to capture the true color. I do know we had to change from her initial gray choices as they were way off once we did samples and checked throughout the day with different light. Once you try different bulbs, I would ask your SW store for a paint deck to bring home to choose several to get samples. I always paint samples on large panels and move around in different light. You might also go to a tile store and check out sample boards. Google the term “grays that go with SW Alabaster” and you’ll find many colors go beautifully with Alabaster. Can you take another photo further back so we see more of the room? What rooms are adjacent?...See Morewhat colour to paint walls..white/grey kitchen cabinets
Comments (8)You need some warm accents. Right now it is a very “chilly” scheme. Your whites are different…floor is a stark white, your upper cabs are creamier and you're adding another white for the counter. I’d start with a backsplash, blending all the tones, going as warm as possible. For the walls, give a thought to red…specifically B.M. Burnt Russet…a delicious warm red....See Morerickie95
