........grey area.............



A few (ok, maybe a couple) months ago I posted some laundry room inspiration pictures.

I have a spacious laundry room in my cottage that looks moderately 'ok' (I'm being generous). It has all the makings of one kick-butt laundry room - a half bath right off it, a generous sink, cabinets, a closet and most of all space.

When we moved here well over a year ago, I had the entire interior of our cottage painted....except the laundry room. I dreamed of doing a fun color in the laundry room...what exactly that would be escaped me as I prepared for yet another move across country.

And now, after living here well over a year (as I mentioned above), I have finally decided what that fun 'color' will be.....if you can call steel grey a color. See the picture above for what I am talking about!

Seems a little bold for me - given that my most of my house is painted BM 'Gentle Cream'. What do you think??

I have lots of other plans too, so stay tuned!

  1. It sounds like a fun color to try out!! I wish I had a laundry room!!! Mine is in the garage and there's only so much you can do to make it "pretty" ;)

  2. I'm jealous you have a laundry room worth making over - mine is so small it's hardly worth calling it a room. I think the steel grey could be amazing mixed with white accents...

  3. I like the idea of grey... seems "clean" for some strange reason. Will it be a sad color in the winter though? I've never lived in snow.

  6. Hi, Jill! I'm so glad you are coming to the Junkologie Blog Party at Oronoco!! I look forward to meeting you in person!

    As far as the grey...go for it! The best thing about paint is that it is easy to fix if you change your mind!! I can't wait to see the transformation!!
