A Gray Day
The day has finally come to choose the new paint color for my office!!
I decided to take the plunge and revamp my office after a rep for Dutch Boy paints contacted me a few weeks ago about trying out a sample of their Refresh paint line – woohoo!! That was just the kick in the pants I needed to get me going! I’m extra excited to be trying this paint line because it’s zero-VOC so I won’t be hurting my body or the environment when I use it {big props to Dutch Boy for that!}.
I’ve decided to go with gray walls {see this post}, but now the hard part – what shade?? After much deliberation I narrowed it down to four choices, and I think I finally picked a winner.
Route 66 in a flat finish – it’s a gray with a fair bit of brown in it so it should look dynamite next to the beige carpet and wood desk that I already have in the room.
I can’t wait to start the transformation! Seriously, my office is in such a state that I can’t even bring myself to show you a pic right now – no joking. I’m excited to take the first step into turning it into an office that I truly love to spend time in. Hopefully I’ll have my new paint in a few weeks!
Do you have any room revamps on the horizon? Or maybe you’ve just finished one!! Fill us in on the details, or maybe send it in to Show Off Your Space!
Woohoo! Room revamps are always so exciting! Love that shade of gray you chose – you’re right – it will work perfect with any brown shades in the room, too. Right now we are remodeling our master bedroom – it’s exciting, but hard work, too! I have to keep reminding myself that it’s all worth it in the end. :) Can’t wait to see your office redo!

I think you chose a fabulous color. It will be really easy to change the feel of the room as well. A nice neutral gray lets all your furnishings and accessories shine.
Looking forward to seeing the before and afters.
Warm regards,

I love the paint color! Reminds me a lot of the greige I have going in the main part of my house in fact. And yes, my next big project is the master bedroom. Woohoo!
Have a wonderful 4th, Liz!

Fun, fun! Can’t wait to see it and I never met a gray I didn’t like! : )
I love gray walls! Especially for bedrooms. I also love to see them in action so I can’t wait to see how your office turns out!
