Three Ways: Grey in the Bedroom

Maybe it's because it marries with such ease to yellow (one of my favourite colours), or perhaps it's the restful vibe it gently oozes. Either way, grey really chimes a decor-loving cord within me - and it makes for the perfect hue when it comes to decorating bedrooms. The versatile colour can be called upon in various different shades for varying effect. Whilst I love the drama of the second scheme, my heart pulls me towards Gentle Romance - yes, there's the saffron yellow, but the subtle nude tones of the sheets and overall relaxed vibe also have me sold. Which scheme is for you?

    Ahh grey! I love all the ways the different greys create completely different looks. The dark charcoal is my favourite.

    I've never been a big fan of grey or yellow until I saw how great they can look together. Now I would definitely consider both colours in the bedroom or anywhere else in the house for that matter.

    love something about each of them- although i am being drawn to #3, mainly because of the mix with natural elements- but grey and yellow is always a winning combo in my book!

    I love the shade of gray in a bedroom...and I incorporated a dark gray in the form of silk lampshades and a light, airy gray in the form of a "Stay Clam and Carry On" lacquered wall art.

    They all look pretty great considering my bedroom is in quite a state of disarray and not quite done at the moment.

    these are all great so it would be hard to choose. I've been thinking a lot about painting my walls grey but haven't yet pinpointed what shade. :)

    Loved #1 and #3! My husband and I picked Behr "Pensive Sky" for our bedroom thinking it would be a true light grey but it was more light blue..the next rooms we paint will definitely be grey. Thanks for the post! Your blog is an inspiration :)

    We have a grey, yellow and white bedroom and I LOVE it. A soothing, neutral color that goes great with everything.

    The first thing I noticed was the pop of yellow in the first two photos. There is something close to perfection about mixing the cold grey with the warm yellow.

    lovely... but i must say, the best use of grey in the bedroom is a little george clooney. :)

    Great post I love them all! But 1 and 3 are definitely right up my street! 2 is great but I don't think I would be daring enough to do it in my own personal space!
