It's slightly darker than the Abalone. The rest of our rooms are dark blues and darker grays so probably too overpowering in larger spaces. </p> <p>[attach=231/13/mgyafr.580x435.living-room-paint-2.JPG]</p> <p>[attach=231/13/mgyaft.580x387.IMG_3024-copy.jpg] </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-dark-hardwood-floors-what-color-are-your-walls#post-516433 Sun, 20 Jan 2013 17:29:53 +0000 Bao 516433@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@REESE: Thanks for pointing that out, I will make sure I do that when we bring the swatches home, if we decide to do a gray! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-dark-hardwood-floors-what-color-are-your-walls#post-516424 Sun, 20 Jan 2013 17:21:19 +0000 Reese 516424@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We are going through the process of picking a new wall colour to go with our dark wood floors.. I currently have 5 grey samples on the wall and it seems I may need to pick out a few more to make a final decision.. Grey can be a real PITA.. make sure you put the samples in all different lighting in the same room.. It is hard to find one that doesnt look too blue, too green, too purple ...etc..etc. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-dark-hardwood-floors-what-color-are-your-walls#post-516389 Sun, 20 Jan 2013 16:55:35 +0000 loveisstrange 516389@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I love a gray or a light blue with dark floors. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-dark-hardwood-floors-what-color-are-your-walls#post-516366 Sun, 20 Jan 2013 16:47:35 +0000 autumnlove 516366@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>We will have dark laminate and our walls are ivory! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/if-you-have-dark-hardwood-floors-what-color-are-your-walls#post-516308 Sun, 20 Jan 2013 16:11:36 +0000 Bao 516308@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrs. Pen: I love grey too and DH loves Beige...haha this may be interesting ;) We both love both, but to agree on one will be difficult.
