Grey with a hint of lilac

[mmmdelicious]

Can anyone recommend a grey paint that has a lilac tint to it? I want to pick up on the lilac colour in a wallpaper but without actually painting the walls lilac, if that makes sense! A pale grey with lilac tones would do the trick if I could find one.

Dulux frosted steel is a grey with a definite hint of lilac. My SIL has used it in her living room with plum accessories and it looks fab I think.

We used dulux dusted moss 2 in our old bedroom. It looked grey usually but slightly pinky-lilac, although in some lights could also look quite greeny. Not sure if that was the paint or the light in our room.

Try dulux mulberry silk, it's beautiful and I think it's what you're looking for

Staverton got there before me. In some lights LG Welcome is grey, some lilac. Really lovely, but you have to want the lilac - which we didn't. Got probably 2L sitting in a cupboard in London if you want it.

Ive been looking too, and found Zoffany beauvais lilac

But now I think staverton and grumbelina have solved the issue for me. The LG colour is lovely.

Homebase Soft Clay if you can it NOT in the bathroom type. Good colour, rubbish paint which falls off at a sneeze!

Dulux frosted steel looks very lilac without even a hint of grey in our house . I tried a tester in an east-facing room without much sunlight.

Dulux polished pebble also looked lilac in our house (west facing room so lots of sun).

Dulux Mineral Haze. I have a 2.5 litre tin you can have if you live in the south! It didn't look lilac till I started putting it on :(. Not what I wanted.

[Nepotism]

Actually, 2 5 litre tins....what a waste.

I have one wall of the Little Greene Welcome Deep in our bedroom and it's lovely. We have it with a slightly blue-tinged LG one that I can't remember on the other walls, which I think brings out the grey a little more. If you have purple elsewhere then it might almost come out a tiny bit too lilac...

F & B Dove Tale - we have it in one of our rooms & it is a lovely grey with a hint of lilac/ purple.
