Gray & Yellow.....the New Black & White

If you have been keeping up with trends these days you will see there is no lack of gray in today's decorating. One of my favorite combinations that is being used currently is gray & yellow. The gray needs to be warm and the yellow pure. Here are some pics of rooms that I think you will agree look amazing, along with some of my favorite choices of gray and yellow colors from Benjamin Moore.




Try Wickham Gray HC-171 to create these faint blue/gray walls. For a punch of yellow use accents in Goldfield #292.



This is a great example of a subtle use of gray and yellow. Try Plymouth Gray 1543 & Decatur Buff HC-38.




 This is a wonderful bold example of gray and yellow together. Try Kendall Charcoal HC-166 & Firefly #299.




Here is a way to use both the gray and yellow on the walls by creating an accent wall. I'm not really big on accent walls, but certain rooms and situations call for it. Try Revere Pewter HC-172 & Hawthorne Yellow HC-4 to create this look.
