Thrilling Saturday night decor thread!

Walls are Elephant Breath.

Personally I don't like grey sofas and it might blend into your walls a bit. It won't clash with beige though if that's what you're worrying about.

I've got a lovely grey sofa and in my old house I had a beige-y carpet, they looked great.

Well, Elephant’s Breath is the ultimate greige, so it should tie your sofa & carpet shades together nicely. As long as it isn’t a cold, blue-grey sofa.

But personally, I’d go for a deep purple. Sofa, that it Grin

I’ve got grey carpet and a beige sofa. Swap??!

Elephant breath is a brilliant name for paint, ours is 'a whisper of steel' or something similar. I think as long as you mesh the accessories well it looks lovely.

I want a career in naming paints.

I do, with off-white walls. Wall and carpet colours are from the previous house owners and I wasn’t sure whether buying a grey sofa would work but I have long cream and grey curtains, which I think tie the colours together, and also cushions in another colour, to lift it a bit.
