Light Blue Gray Paint Colors

Decorating Ideas, Tips and Trends

Sharing the most beautiful & peaceful light blue gray paint colors that provide inspiration for our master bedroom!

As you may know, I started painting our master bedroom Behr Atmospheric (read more and see images here). However, I knew it wasn’t going to work and I immediately began scouring the web Saturday morning for some new light blue gray zen paint colors. I was determined to find something right away, which is not always the best idea, so I could get started on it yet that day. Following are some of the images that inspired me!

Light Blue Gray Paint Color Inspiration

Following are some photos of relaxing bedrooms and/or paint colors that I really liked. You’ll notice they all have a bluish/grayish/greenish tint, but are much lighter than the Behr Atmospheric. The overall look will flow so much better with the rest of our home. I present beautiful, peaceful, light blue gray paint colors for our master bedroom. If you’re looking for even more ideas, be sure to check out my post dedicated to the best blue gray paint colors.

Do you think I’m crazy for re-painting so quickly? I showed the new  master bedroom paint color to two sets of neighbors (one caught me mid-way on the second color) and I’m pretty sure they all thought I was nuts to change it. But, when you know, you know. It would have driven me batty until the day I repainted again. What’s a few creaky joints to get what I wanted? Right?!

In addition to this type of paint color, I obviously have an affinity for for crisp white bedding and upholstered beds 😉 Needless to say, I found “the” color. Thankfully, Sherwin Williams was having their 40% off sale over the weekend as well, or it likely wouldn’t have worked out – that paint is NOT cheap!

Check back tomorrow for the new paint color preview. I still have to do another coat and paint the trim white for the biggest impact. Funny enough, it reminds me of the Restoration Hardware Pale Silver I started painting throughout the main living areas. But this time in a space, Sherwin Williams Sea Salt, here!

    Oh I wonder if you went with SW Comfort Grey…it reminds me of a few of your inspiration pics. And I totally don’t think you are nuts for repainting. I am about to embark on redecorating the dining room right after I finished “decorating it using what I had”. I knew all along I never liked the elements and I should have just started from scratch to begin with. Your gut knows what you want…trust it & I’m sure it will turn out beautiful!!!

      None of these are my house, but I ended up using Sherwin Williams Sea Salt (there is a post called Sea Salt if you want to check out how it turned out)! We love it!

    I want to use navy blue bedding, what is a good Master bedroom all color and Master bath color to coordinate? Bath faces East, Master faces south.
    Prefer lighter wall colors for Master. Would consider bold color for bath.

    Go! 🙂
    Thanks for ideas!
