Life in the Gray Area

In honor of me plucking out my first gray hair, which apparently sprung forth from the top of my head overnight and was sticking up so proudly, I would like to introduce you to:
An assortment of my Gray Haired friends
Meet Storm Cloud Gray

Which turned this -

into this.


And Gray Horse (love the name - I always bet on the gray horse at the races!)

Which I painted my bathroom and entryway

And Smokestack Gray

Which I bought a sample of, I guess for my kitchen?  I am not sure.  But I didn't end up using it.  It is a really beautiful color, though.

And Colorado Gray

Ditto - have a sample but it didn't materialize into anything in the house. 

And Silver Gray

Which I also apparently just bought for my collection.  Why purchase a fan deck when you can just keep collecting actual samples of actual paint?  I thought it would make a pretty ceiling color in the kitchen, but ended up just paining the ceiling the same color as the walls.

And Dior Gray

Which I used on some woodwork in the kitchen but I am not really that pleased with it. Why does it look so blue?

Blue Wainscot?  And hello Roomba.

Finally, this is Ozark Shadows -

Which transformed Carly's room from this -

into this (scroll down - it is a long post!)

I love Gray!

  1. Love the Chevron rug in the dining room! And, will you come paint for me for a few days this summer? I'll pay you...a little...
