Re: What about paint color

First, what is a dream pillow?

If the walls are grey, they are grey. I prefer a neutral backdrop for me to be able to change out the decor with pictures, bedding, curtains and the like to create color. Light grey will work well. Light colors are best for bedrooms. I don't see grey as a fad, but some do. It, like beige, white, black, browns, charcoals, and navys are neutrals in fashion and in decor. The grey can be warmed up with blues and browns. Grey can be crisped up with whites. White will make the grey and other colors pop. I like a white kitchen for the same reason of opening up the space, filling it with light, and accessorize with food and colored appliances. I like a light and airy bedroom, spa like with light. What do you want in a bedroom? Identify that, then you can move forward with your design.

We have so many windows in the new house the white is going to make it so bright. My mom wants to use red as her pop of color in couch pillows and stuff. I think it will look beautiful.
