Unless you have not flipped past HGTV while channel surfing or seen a home decor magazine in the last three years, you may have noticed that gray is the new beige. Gray is an amazing and soothing color when incorporated correctly- done incorrectly, and you may feel like you are trapped in a dark cave or jail cell! In my own home, I actually went through 22 sample shades of gray before deciding on my main wall color. Yes, 22 samples. You see, gray paint is one of the few neutrals that really changes color depending on the lighting. One room can look completely different than the next, just based on how many windows there are, recessed lighting, etc. Now you are probably sitting there, considering selling your house and making one or two updates, paint being the easiest, and thinking 22 samples! No way! Well, I am here to help. My secret color is Sherwin Williams' Agreeable Gray. I used to work out of luxury models, and I cannot tell you how many people fell in love with Agreeable Gray. This color falls more towards the beige spectrum than gray, but it is gorgeous. The color works on the interior of houses and exterior. Paint is one of the easiest and least expensive ways to update your design. If you love faux paint or bright colors, I hate to break it to you, but 99% of the buyers walking through your front door will not. Paint those walls a pleasing neutral color, and buyers will be able to more clearly picture themselves in the space. Have you ever walked into a high end furniture store? If you have, you will often see a lot of white. That is because buyers cannot envision items that are not in a neutral color in their own space. Now... it is time to start painting!
