Gray Dining Room Inspirations!

 

I'm so excited!  We're having our red dining room painted gray!  Sherwin Williams Magnetic Gray to be exact.  Here's the color below, it's a deeper gray with a soft blue undertone.

So today I thought I'd share a few beautiful gray dining rooms - all images courtesy of Houzz.  Let's swoon shall we...


Darker grays can be warm and dramatic in dining rooms.  I am in love with this chandelier above.

Ahhh, this gray sea grass wall paper is so elegant!  I also love the aqua button tufted chairs, and the chandelier certainly makes a statement doesn't it?


More drama above with the deep gray walls, silk drapes and very formal chandy.  I love how the simple upholstered chairs soften everything so that the look is comfortable and elegant!


I don't know the exact color of these walls above, but the color looks very similar to our new paint color.  I love gray/blues!


This light gray above makes the room feel modern and fresh!


And how fun are these teal silk drapes and patterned rug in this dark gray dining room above!




Well I can't wait to share our new dining room.  In fact, here's a Before picture.  We already have a great starting point with our new awesome rug courtesy of Medallion Rugs, and new head chairs from World Market.

Okay stay tuned for the Reveal...

  1. I adore the rug! I am moving away from grey, in favour of a greyed down blue. I don't know if it's just me or not, but the darker grey started to depress me.

    With that rug the grey you have chosen will be fab!

  2. Thanks Mel! I agree some grays are just too stark and cold. I love the ones that have either warmth (like Worldly Gray) or grays with blue or green undertones.

    1. Kathy how fun for the both of us! Well I am excited because I am so OVER this red dining room. Honestly I've wanted to paint it for years. But was just looking for the perfect color palette for the room. This new rug though led me straight to the new wall color. The difference will be night and day ;) Okay I can't wait to see your new spaces! I'll definatley stop by to see your progress :)
