The carpet looks like it's not a super blue-grey, so I think if you want grey, you want one with a little more taupe in it. I love Valspar's Cathedral Stone (darker) and Linen (lighter-midtone). </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-paint-with-grey-carpet-pics#post-2102871 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 16:32:40 +0000 raspberries 2102871@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyPenguinXO: Ohhh, that's more fun then! What kind of furniture do you have/what's your decorating style? You could do a tan color like this: <a href="http://www.houzz.com/photos/1687411/Hawthorne-Hills-Contemporary-Craftsman-craftsman-living-room-seattle" rel="nofollow">http://www.houzz.com/photos/1687411/Hawthorne-Hills-Contemporary-Craftsman-craftsman-living-room-seattle</a> or maybe a dark gray on the top and bright under the chair rail like this: <a href="http://www.houzz.com/photos/7523256/Afton-Blvd-traditional-living-room-minneapolis?" rel="nofollow">http://www.houzz.com/photos/7523256/Afton-Blvd-traditional-living-room-minneapolis?</a> </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-paint-with-grey-carpet-pics#post-2102857 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 16:16:57 +0000 BabyPenguinXO 2102857@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@raspberries: we are moving IN to this place :) sorry!

That looks awesome. Is your carpet more grey or tan!? The light plays so many tricks! I don't get to see our place before we move! Moving from MN to IN! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-paint-with-grey-carpet-pics#post-2102359 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 12:18:59 +0000 autumn865 2102359@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Here it almost looks blue in full light but you can see in the more shadowed areas it is grey. </p> [attach=1605/15/nl0arn.600x450.image.jpg] https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-paint-with-grey-carpet-pics#post-2102274 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 11:47:13 +0000 BabyPenguinXO 2102274@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@autumn865: I worry about it being to dark but that was kinda my thought too! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-paint-with-grey-carpet-pics#post-2102243 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 11:33:04 +0000 Anagram 2102243@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@BabyPenguinXO: I would probably do a super neutral white with a gray tinge--like a cool white.</p> <p>ETA: and then you could do the trim in a traditional white. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-paint-with-grey-carpet-pics#post-2102233 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 11:28:06 +0000 autumn865 2102233@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We have a light grey carpet in the master and we painted the walls a darker grey/ blue. I love the color so relaxing :) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/how-to-paint-with-grey-carpet-pics#post-2102170 Tue, 10 Mar 2015 10:49:58 +0000 BabyPenguinXO 2102170@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are moving soon and need to do some painting. The living room carpet is a grayish neutral color. We would like to paint the trim white or another color because somehow there managed to be a few different colors of trims. </p> <p>Any color theme ideas!? Love pictures! :) </p> [attach=3705/15/nl06na.600x450.image.jpg]
