Last weekend with assistance from my mother in law, we managed to paint our entire living room twice over with the loveliest shade of gray. I am in love with this color, ladies and gents, if you've been looking for your perfect gray I highly recommend checking out Nimbus Cloud from the Martha Stewart line at Home Depot.
My horrible picture does not even do it justice. It's a lighter shade of gray with a warm tone without reading brown, or blue, or green, or anything else. It looks so good with the white trim too.
Akira likes it too! Just a reminder here is the before pic...
Ahh that's better! And look what I picked up at Canton!
It's currently holding a collection of blankets in the living room. I've been looking for one of these for a while and I snagged this one for only $35! I think it's actually meant to hold a plant but I've seen it used for linen storage a lot. This will keep all my blankets out of reach from my blanket eating dogs!
I'm headed to camp on the river in the Texas Hill Country this holiday weekend. Have a fantastic three day weekend everyone!

ooh, you lucky girl. I need to get out to Hill country again, its been over a year. I was looking for you on my blogroll today and realized you weren't there! I'm so sorry that it took me so long to add you! Boo on me. Have a beautiful weekend and enjoy this weather.
Great find...and great choice on the walls. I love the contrast between the gray and white. Definite improvement over the all white.
awesome color, gal, and you'd better bet I am headed out to the Depot to check it out...
What a beautiful color. am in love with the gray color as well. What a beautiful find ... and a great idea to use as a blanket storage.
and Akira is a very handsome dog!
Have a great time this weekend.

Brandi! I love it! You did so good. I am so glad you love it.
I was going to suggest you send this to Donna at A Perfect Gray...but I see now she's seen it.

loooooove nimbus cloud. and i am pooping over that wire rolly cart.
I love the new color it turned out stunning! My Mom actually has one of those wire rolling baskets and I think they were actually made for laundry. (or so she says)
Luvs!
that shade of grey looks lovely on your walls dear!
wishing you a happy holiday weekend.
xo, persis.
I never thought grey would look nice as a wall color, but my cousin recently went grey and it was lovely. Your shade of grey is particularly awesome -- that trim is gorgeous.
