Blue Gray Paint color recs?

JuneBrideNJ

Does anyone have a blue gray paint color they've used that they could recommend?  I wan't something on the lighter side, gray with blue undertones.  I looked in the paint bio and found samples of the ones I liked in there but when I got them home they weren't right.  Thanks!

I love Valspar's Woodlawn Silver Brook.  I'm pretty sure that's the name.  We painted our master bedroom and home office with the color.  It's the perfect blue gray. 

This is a very old pic of our Master but gives you an idea.

We just used SW's Tradewind in our bathroom.

It has a lot of gray in it but it might be more blue than your looking for.  Interior designer Phoebe Howard has a list of light blue paints she likes:

It's best to google the colors to see how they look in people's rooms because the small swatches she has posted don't really show the true color.

I just used BM's Eternity (AF 695) in DS's big boy room.  I originally wanted it in my DD's nursery, thinking it was just gray, but after I painted I saw a lot of blue undertone in it! LOL  It's a beautiful color though!

Thanks all!  I have some new research to do. )

I used Benjamin Moore Pewter in my Dining Room. I had it color matched at Lowe's though and it looks a little more blue than gray.. but the actual color is really nice (luckily for us, the color still worked in the room).

Sorry, no pics on my work computer, but we have Behr's Dolphin Fin in our bedroom - exactly what you described - light gray with blue undertones.

Benjamin Moore's Pebble Beach is blue-gray.  Depending on the light, it may look more blue, though.

We painted our laundry room this color.  I loved it so much that I plan on using it in our kitchen!

Ditto this.  You actually recommended this color to us, and we just love it.  It's the perfect blend of blue and gray, IMO.
