If you want to look back at some of my past color spotlights, you can find them here. You’ll love both Sherwin-Williams Mindful an Repose Grays! Here’s Repose Gray, so you can see the difference:Īs with all paint colors, it’s always best to paint a poster board in the color and tape it to the wall (or cabinetry) to see how it looks and it it’s perfect for your space. If you’re looking for a wall color that is just a little lighter, Sherwin-Williams Repose Gray is the next color up on the color card and it’s one of the best colors out there and you can see my Color Spotlight here highlighting Repose Gray. Of course, it’s still a perfect warm gray but just a little darker.Īt evening or dusk, with no natural light, Mindful Gray will look like this. In spaces with less natural light, you can see, Mindful Gray is a more den-like rich color. In spaces with a lot of natural light, Mindful Gray does not appear as dark and it’s just a true beautiful warm gray: Not super dark but if you want a rich greige, Mindful Gray is for sure a color to sample. However, on walls, it is a rich darker color. Mindful Gray is also an all-around great color on walls, exterior homes and trim work. The Sherwin-Williams color strip number is 244. In fact, this whole color card is probably the best card when it comes to paint because all of the colors are near perfection and include rock star colors like Sherwin-Williams Eider White, Repose Gray, Mindful Gray, Dorian Gray, Gauntlet Gray and Black Fox. If Mindful Gray looks familiar to a lot of you, it’s because it’s one shade down on the same paint color card as Repose Gray. We used it also on our built-in bar, also in the dining room. I also used Mindful Gray on my built-in buffet in my dining room. I used Mindful Gray on all the cabinetry and built-ins in my craft room (Repose Gray is on the wall). I use Mindful Gray on all my cabinetry throughout my home and I also recommend it more than any other cabinet color for my clients because it always looks amazing and it’s really the most dependable cabinetry color out there. In my book, there is hands down, no better cabinetry paint color than Mindful Gray because it’s a dark enough shade for contrast, the color is absolutely stunning and it will work beautifully with any color combination because of it’s transitional (warm/cool) base. There are no strong undertones whatsoever like mauve, peach or green as you often see with similar colors. Mindful Gray is a near perfect greige color with a beautiful mix of warm gray that is about is neutral as you can get.

#MINDFUL GRAY PAINT WINDOWS#
The color in the dining room appears lighter because of the french doors off the dining room and the bay windows in the kitchen. The answer – YES! We have a ton of windows and natural light in our house. I’m often asked on Instagram if the color in the dining room is the same as the living room. Light hits each wall differently so I find it beneficial to test out your paint colors on every wall before deciding. I brought home paint samples and painted a small area on EACH wall in each room. I quickly learned lighting makes the world of difference when selecting paint colors. They are worn out but I’m glad I have them when I am out and about and need to match something I’ve found with our paint colors. I also carry my paint chips around in my wallet. I had paint colors picked out well before we even had a house! I think my husband thought I was crazy bringing home paint chips and we weren’t even on the house hunt.
