Looking for a blue-Gray paint color

Hi there, i am new to the forum. Looking for a really nice blue-gray color for my living room and hallway. My kitchen is currently a deep wine/ burgundy color. Fairly large living room and kitchen. I am having a very hard time trying to pin a color that i like. I have looked at a color that Home Hardware carries called "Cardigan", i like the medium colors.......nothing light. I would greatly appreciate any advice. My current furniture colors are brown.


Thank You
Marg

Welcome to the forums Marg!

It's a little difficult to choose a color for someone else especially when your not there to see the room and it's furnishings.

I'd start with collecting color chips and look at them while in the room, then maybe buy a couple samples an apply them to the wall to give you a better idea as to how they will look.

I'll move your post to the decorating and design section of the forums as I believe you will be better served there.

could you supply a pic or two?

Cool Blue-Gray Paint Color

Thank you Marksr for replying so quickly. I do have some photo's and you will have to excuse the mess of the living room as it was during Christmas. I have some current color views (very dreary and was on the walls when we bought the house) and some current paint colors i am thinking about, but not really sure.

Would like to know what you think of the colors

Thanx
Marg
