The Paint Color and Formula for my Living Room~Martha Stewart Gray Pearl

Hello!

I often get asked what color of paint I used for our living room...

It is a Martha Stewart color from Lowes, called Gray Pearl. Unfortunately you can no longer get the Martha Stewart colors at Lowes. I was able to get the formula from our Lowes as they still had the color in their system.

The paint formula is...

101-13.5, 107-19, 109-1

This formula is for a one gallon can of paint...

I used the Valspar Signature Satin Finish at Lowes.

Just a warning if the room you are painting doesn't have a lot of natural light coming in this color can appear very "muddy". I actually painted our other living room that is now my work studio this color and it didn't work, the walls ended up looking muddy instead of gray....

I also painted my kitchen cupboards last summer the Gray Pearl color.....

You can see the kitchen cupboards in the background.

Because the modular home we live in has a very open floor plan, the living room, dining room, and kitchen are all open to each other. I wasn't sure if it would be weird to have the walls the same color as the cupboards... By painting the cupboards the same color as the walls I think it helped tie the kitchen into the rest of the room.....

I will eventually show more images of the kitchen in the future.

On another note....

I had to share this image I found on my cell phone yesterday....

My daughter, Bethany had a little photo shoot with her lop eared bunnies using my phone....
