My walls are currently cork wedge by sherwin Williams. A new hardwood floor is making them read too gold. I’d like to go more gray. Which gray would would go with drapes that are a cork wedge color, white woodwork, medium brown floors & lots of natural light from east, west & north.

I have used Edgecomb Gray extensively in our home and it works everywhere. But even though I love the rooms that are shown with Revere Pewter, is seems to "read cold" whenever I try it. I wonder if it is due to the number and direction of windows in most of my rooms. I used Stonington Grey for the dining room that has west and north windows, and that really pulls out the blue. Now I'm trying to find a blue for my kitchen that will work with Volga Blue granite & make the iridescent blue in the stone "pop". If anyone has a good idea for that, I would love to hear it!

What a great post – I'm a paint color junkie! We painted our old home office Martha Stewart's Zinc and I loved it! Also love, love SW's Keystone Gray – a brownish gray that I used in our old house and again in this one!

Great inspiration photos! We are looking at gray here too. Under another Winter Storm Warning. So ready for spring.

One I keep going back to is B.M. Revere Pewter. I just bought bedding for the master bedroom and am trying to find the right grey

In reply to Lisa @ Shine Your Light. I'm really loving what I'm seeing with these light grays. It's nice to find a light gray that is truly warm, since that seems to be my biggest worry when looking at light grays for my home.

In reply to Gwen. Thanks Gwen - I'll make note of it. Balboa Mist is another great color out there in the light gray family!

thanks! Just a note though; the first photo under 'Abalone' is actually BM Balboa Mist, per the designer at Houzz.com. They list several photos of that room/adjoining kitchen, all under BM Balboa Mist.

I'm deciding between Balboa Mist or Edgecomb Gray for our downstairs dining room/living room open space. Love a warm light gray; the cool light grays are too cold/sterile to me. I will be accenting with turquoise (beach decor area)...very excited, and thanks for bringing more options to me!
