Grays, Grays and Grays OH MY!

Lets talk paint  c o l o r ...and with that comes a conversation I have almost everyday, GRAYS! When someone asks me "What's your favorite gray?" I simply reply "Take a seat". (with a smile of course) Up here in north country we are about 5 years (if not more) from the trends coast to coast. We also endure cold weather for about 9 months out of the year. YIKES! This in turn translates to being forced inside, loving our homes and of course warmer colors! Because of this, my favorite Benjamin Moore color is #984 out of the classic collection, Stone Hearth. It's more of a greige (grey-beige) so it keeps its warmth yet updates the space. 984 Stone Hearth I've learned the important thing with gray is to know your undertone and know what you would rather see.

Just because you like a color in an image doesn't mean it will look the same in your space! These colors (all colors) will change with lighting so be cautious and have fun playing with color!

To each their own : choose a color because you like it  not because it's on trend or because I told you it's the right one.  You have to live there not me! Trends aren't always right  either, for example GRAY.  Grays have been trending for many years now but in the  perfect scenario they are paired with white trim and often  have a cooler feel to them.  Remember, look at the color choice in your lighting before painting. 2. Find Inspiration : It could be in the form of fabric, tile, flowers, pillows, anything! Explore websites like pinterest  and houzz for ideas. Ask yourself what type of "feel" you are after  for this room? Dramatic, bold, cozy, neutral, calm, quiet, etc. 3. Create a flow : consider threading one color throughout your main living spaces.
