Help me pick the right colour blinds (with pictures)

We're redecorating our bedrooms and I've got stuck with the last thing to source - blinds.

Originally I was thinking darker blinds (the top sample), now thinking it could be a bit too dark and leaning to the sample on the bottom. DH likes the sample on the left. The plank they're on is the new flooring (wood flooring in the bedroom - controversial on MN I know 😬).
Walls will be brilliant bright white (traders version).

All hardware is brass (including door and window handles).

I'd like some sheer white beautiful curtains to complement but will need to decide that once we decide the final furniture room layout

The other two pictures are just around the "inspo" we're basing the redecorating on. Bright and airy but not clinical.

Do I stick to my "new" gut instinct and go with the bottom greyish sample?

I like your second choice.

@NancyBotwinBloom thank you! The more I look at it the more I'm thinking it could be the right one. Why has this become so hard - too many shades of everything. 🙈

I agree with your second choice ( bottom) - The tone seems better with the floor sample. The one your husband likes on the left, I think has too much of a yellow tone , so yes I would go with your new gut feeling - definitely. Smile

I think the bottom one too! I can see why you liked the idea of the dark one but the lighter would look better I think!

Thanks everyone!
Yes the dark one I think has its merits but probably needs quite a big room with lots of light to make it work so it doesn't make the space look dingy and small!

The more I look at the left the more "wrong" it feels!
I think I'll be going with the bottom one!! Thank you for all your help!!
