Greige paint help

8 years ago
last modified: 8 years ago

We are painting our open floor plan home for the first time since moving in 4 years ago! We have honey oak floors and banisters along our stairs. Kitchen has dark espresso-like cabinets. Honey oak floors are in entryway, eat in kitchen and kitchen area. Cream/light beige carpet in family room and on stairs and upstairs hallway. Family room is vaulted ceiling with lots of light in morning as it is east facing - eat in kitchen/kitchen is also on this side. Entryway is west facing and is open to second floor/high ceilings - lots of windows and light. We had someone come in to give us paint color advice. She leaned us towards SW Anew Gray and it was one of the choices I already had on wall. After she left I went and bought SW Amazing Gray. These 2 colors are so similar but Amazing Gray has a touch of green in it and Anew looks a tad blue-ish. I just don't know what to do. Our family room looks out to the forest - my decor is a green/mustard/blue combo (found on a pillow!). I love to bring the outdoors inside. What would be best for the walls? The Anew looks more blue in entryway and Amazing gray looks perfect. In the living/kitchen area the Anew looks good but Amazing looks a tad blah. What goes best with honey oak/cream colored floors? Trim in house is white. Will try to add photos.
