A Chelsea Gray Bedroom

When selecting a paint color for our new condo bedroom, I decided to go a little bolder with color for the walls. It is small room, only 10 x 12 feet. Instead of going with a safer choice, I wanted to pick a darker color and give the room some personality (which it desperately needs!)

I have always loved looking at bedrooms painted in Benjamin Moore Chelsea Gray HC- 168:

Hey! The two rooms above look like the same room! Don’t you agree?

I love that chelsea gray works with so many other colors:

And one of my favorites:

I am going to use white bed linens and see which color accessories I find and like best. Here it is with yellow:

Just beautiful! I think navy would look great too. Ok, decision made. Chelsea gray in the new master bedroom. What do you think? Any other suggestions?

I was wondering if you know the color of the upholstered bed and lampshades in the photo of the first bedroom painted Chelsea Gray. It’s hard to tell if it’s a lighter gray or a taupe. Thanks

I went to your lovely blog and saw your gallery wall. I think it looks so great- the chelsea gray, the way you arranged it, and each individual piece of art is so unique. Very nice!! Thanks for sharing.

I’ve painted my gallery wall Chelsea Gray, and I LOVE it! If you’d like to see how it turned out, I blogged about it here:

I’m trying to decide on a grey to paint the gallery wall in my hallway. You’ve just convinced me that Chelsea Gray is the one Thanks!

I am using Chelsea gray for my laundry room. Floor has tiles with taupes, brown and cream in it. I trying to pick a trim and cabinet color with warm undertones. Do you think simply white is the best option?

Love the look but it would be cave like in my dark bedroom. Can’t wait to see it. So exciting to follow your decorating decisions.
