…paris grey

April 9, 2012 by christen | 5 Comments

Most of the pieces that I work on are in Paris Grey. I like it so much because it’s European and light and works in any room. I have pieces in this color in my family room:

Dining Room:

Study:

Hallway:

I would guess that it’s the color that most clients request as well. Here is Sarah’s chest of drawers.

I was really pleased with how it turned out. She brought me the perfect piece for chalk painting and when that happens it just becomes an easier process.

Hope everyone had a great Easter!

    It really is a fabulous color! You’re right, it works in any space, it’s serene and elegant at the same time. You have a wonderful home, all the pieces look great in Paris Grey.
    Have a nice day! ~ Vanessa

    Love you work! Do you use undercoats and waxes? I want to paint a bed and dresser and am leaning, of course, to Paris Gray. Should I use an Old White undercoat? Thanks for you advice!
