Rec's for gray paint colors please

vanillacourage

Now that life is relatively sane again I want to use the rest of my maternity leave to do some D&R stuff around the house. For our MBR I think a light gray would look nice - something that doesn't read too blue, or too silvery (to keep it away from being too feminine). Any recommendations? Bonus points for pics or google-able specific paint names. TIA!

We just did a bunch of our house in SW Light French Gray (we had Lowes color match it). It really is a true gray. I'm going to try to paste this, sorry if it doesn't work. There are more pics on my blog here: http://keepsonringing.wordpress.com/2012/04/30/ta-da/

 I love this gray, it was exactly what I wanted. Very classy.

I'm learning towards SW Revere Pewter.

I used Valspars Wet Pavement at our last house and was very happy with it.

You mean BM?

We used Coventry Grey by BM (though mixed in SW) in our kitchen, hallway, mudroom, kid's shared bathroom and a guest bathroom. 

It looks a little different in each room. I really love it in the kitchen - it is so clean looking with our white moldings. 

I know it is considered a trendy been there, done that color but no one I know has ever used it including our builder. So it works for us

While a color may not sit on the wheel as a blue - purple - etc ... most of that depends on the room you have the color in - the lighting, etc.

It's not light gray, but we love the color we painted our living room. It's called Wood Smoke (Behr).

We used Valspar's Stony Path for my H's office.  It has a greenish undertone to it.  It's a really nice soothing color.  Sorry, no pics.

Oh yes, sorry. BM Revere Pewter, sorry. Lots of colors we are pondering over here.

We have Benjamin Moore's Pashmina.  It looks beige-ish on the swatch, but a nice warm gray on the walls.  The room was previously painted Revere Pewter, and for our room it was just too light...it looked more like a dirty white than a "color."

I love Martha Stewart Cement Gray - I used it in our dining room. Its more of a mideium gray though.
