Best Neutral Wall Colors

Are you looking for the best NEUTRAL wall paint colors that aren’t white? I’m giving you my vote here today! Wall colors are tricky sometimes… do you go white, cream, grey, greige, or a statement color? There are far too many options! Most of my clients that hire me just to help with paint color for the house are overwhelmed with options and I can’t blame them….sometimes I get overwhelmed too!

You want to make the right decision, and every time you look at Pinterest or Instagram a new color is “trending”... well, here are a few of my “go to colors”. I have a board dedicated to wall colors on Pinterest here that I am always adding to if you want to check that out too. Okay, so here are a few of my current fav’s….

I love this Cheat Sheet that Kylie M. Interiors put together too! Check out her blog!

I am trying to go with grays that don’t have too much blue in them; it’s hard to find but I think these three colors fit the bill! One other all time fav is Behr (Home Depot) Silver Tradition. I have used it MANY times. it has a very light hint of blue grey but it’s super soft.

And the other color that has gotten a lot of traction over the years is BM Grey Owl. I used it in my home and love it but I would say it can lean towards blue and looks a bit different in each room. I love this visual image on the wall from Val a blogger, Lovely Lucky Life!

I hope some of this info is useful for you! Wall color can be hard to choose based on light and what else is going on in the room. I’m always happy to help with a color consult, check out my design services page and if none of these options are what you are looking for, just email me.
