Re: Light Gray Gender Neutral Paint

    I can't find the exact color we used, shoot!  Selecting a great grey color was really hard.  We painted it once and it turned out way too blue.  So we picked a grey with no blue undertones, and repainted.  It looks great now.  Soooo, I guess what I am saying is to stay away from blue-grey colors.

    The color is called ashes and I'm almost positive the brand is Behr (its from home depot).  It took a long time to find the right gray but this one is perfect!

    I've been searching for one as well because I don't want it to look to boring. We are pairing it with soft yellow and blue

    DH is painting our little girl's nursery on Saturday. Originally, we were going to use the color scheme gray, yellow and white to be more gender neutral. Ultimately, I changed it to a light pink (Behr "Old Fashioned Pink") instead of the yellow for the accents. The gray we bought was Behr "Annonymous". I do agree try to stay away from the blue undertones. Hopefully, the color looks great the first time around and no blue undertones :)

    We have a gray in our house from Benjamin Moore called "Horizon Gray". I love it, and it could be gender neutral for sure.

    Big chill by Sherwin Williams is a white undertone gray. It even looks white in the jar but once it's on the wall it's definitely gray. Gray clouds by SW is a little darker than big chill and has a neutral undertone instead of blue, purple or green. If you have time, you can pick up samples, by a primed board or piece of sheet rock and test them out.

    I know there are lots of options but...our family room is Behr's "Porpoise" and we LOVE it!  I would've totally used this in our Team Green nursery if DH wasn't dead set on having different colored rooms.

    I just painted the room Thundercloud Gray by Benjamin Moore. I really love it and it was a recomendation from pottery barn based off of some bedding I had gotten.
