My Favorite Gray Paint Colors

One of the most common questions I get from my followers, friends, and family is what paint color would I recommend for their interior walls. Gray walls are ALL the rage lately and I am definitely loving that trend. David and I are Sherwin Williams people. We love the quality of their paint, the customer service, the sales they have, and the convenience of their locations to us. So below I have compiled a list of my favorite gray wall colors at Sherwin Williams.

Zircon (SW 7667)

Zircon is probably my favorite gray color from Sherwin Williams. This gray color has a cooler side to it. I don’t recommend this color for houses with trim/woodwork that has an orange or yellow based stain. This color is best for houses with white trim/woodwork like mine. I used this color in my powder room and upstairs bathroom.

Knitting Needles (SW 7672)

I used this gray color in our master bedroom. I don’t have any pictures of our master bedroom yet so below is an image of Julie Blanner’s beautiful bathroom using Knitting Needles. This color is a little darker gray than Zircon, but along the same cooler shade.

Repose Gray (SW 7015)

Repose Gray is a warmer gray and would look great with homes trimmed in the yellow or orange based stains, but also looks fabulous with homes trimmed in white:) Plus this paint color is all over Pinterest so you know it’s a good one!

Mindful Gray (SW 7016)

Mindful gray is one shade darker than Repose Gray. So if you are the type of person that is scared of light colored walls, try this color! Mindful Gray is another great gray color for a home trimmed in yellow or orange based stains.
