50 Shades of Gray

Hi Loves,

I’m finally ready to reveal to you a project I’ve been working on .. renovating my bedroom! It took a few weeks but I’m so glad I’m finally done now! The hardest thing was choosing the right color palette for the bedroom, because your wall colors are so important in affecting the ambiance. I’m extremely grateful to Valspar for being so helpful in the process of choosing the perfect color, Apollo. When I was deciding on a color at the new Paint Studio at Ace Hardware, I felt like I was choosing colors at a cosmetic store, thank you for making things so easy and fun!

Once I found my bedroom color, the rest was a breeze. After you have the main color, the rest is just complementary colors and accents. I chose white, cream, and gold to complement and liven up the gray. The great thing about choosing gray is that it’s light enough to liven up your room, but also moody enough to create depth in the room. Now that it’s finally done, I don’t know who’s happier with the results, me or my frenchies!
