To ask successful greys you have painted your bedroom

I love the grey paint colours around at the moment but cannot decide what colour to do our bedroom. Just done the dc's Dulux Oyster Bay (pale grey blue) and Goose Down. Main bathroom is Chic Shadow, Landing is a grey/green so I feel like all the good greys have been taken! Would love some ideas please.

Cornforth white from F&B is gorgeous.

GreyBird84 · 12/05/2017 16:39

Goose down is beautiful. I have it in the bathrooms, toy room & cloakroom. Everyone comments on it.

catmumof1 · 12/05/2017 16:41

Laura Ashley Dove Grey, its beautiful and they do matching everything if thats your style!

We used Johnstone's China Clay throughout our house. Bought from B+M but looks like Homebase sell it too.

We've just painted our baby girls nursery a beautiful "warm" grey. We loved it so much we now have it in our bedroom too. It's Vespars "Anchors Aweigh". You can find it at b and q. X

Sorry Confused that was meant to say Valspar! X

Goose Down for the bedroom, its lovely and calming and Chic Shadow and Luscious Lime for the kitchen.

BringMeTea · 12/05/2017 17:14

We have FnB Dove Tale in the bedroom. Love it. Warm.

SafeToCross · 12/05/2017 17:17

Used Valspar Graceful Grey on all our internal doors

RoseGoldProsecco · 12/05/2017 17:24

My dad has just used farrow and ball's "elephant's breath", that's nice!

My bedroom is Dulux's Polished Pebble.

It's lovely.

Teardropexplodes · 12/05/2017 17:41

F&B ammonite it lovely - you can have it colour matched if you don't fancy the price tag.

AnnaNimmity · 12/05/2017 17:43

i have F&B Cornforth white on the walls - it looks really lovely I think. I have another white on the woodwork.

AnnaNimmity · 12/05/2017 17:44

Yes I have ammonite in other rooms and it's also really nice.

ghostyslovesheets · 12/05/2017 17:47

Valspar Shrouded Lace in the living room

wildone81 · 12/05/2017 17:49

Just finished our nursery with chic shadow...loving it Smile

Another vote for Dulux polished pebble - have it in a couple of rooms and love it.

Rioja123 · 12/05/2017 17:58

We have polished pebble too it's beautiful

Bellaposy · 12/05/2017 17:59

Cornforth White F&B (colour matched at B&Q). I love it and get asked loads by others what colour it is.

SureJan · 12/05/2017 18:00

We've just painted our bedroom in Johnstone's Moonlit Sky - like a pale silvery grey colour

NapQueen · 12/05/2017 18:01

We have Goose Down in the kids bedroom and the living room. Id paint my whole house in it and my car, and my face if I could.

TruJay · 12/05/2017 18:04

Napqueen that really made me laugh 😂😂 I love greys so will be making some notes of these suggestions

littlepeas · 12/05/2017 18:05

We have purbeck stone, which is the same tone as cornforth white but stronger - works really well in our sunny, south facing bedroom.

fiorentina · 12/05/2017 18:10

We have F&B blackened in one room and a darker of their greys in our room. I love them both.
