Grey Matter
May 3, 2011
Gray is just about my favorite color, but I worry. Does that mean I am boring? Gray doesn't really have an exciting reputation. No one paints their piñata gray. No such thing as gray popsicles. Well who cares! I think gray is sophisticated and serene.
Check out these gray makeovers and tell me you don't agree!
Incidentally, 'sophisticated and serene' are the words most often used to describe me. Ok, that part is not true. First a table to a footstool makeover from Meg at Meg and Mum's. Yes, I have that same fabric too.
Thanks ladies!

I believe it's GREY if you are sophisticated and serene, and GRAY if you are more monster trucks and nascar. Also, it may depend whether you say THEATRE or THEATER.
I think it also depends on if you are speaking American English or British English...grey if you are a serene and sophisticated Brit, and gray if you are an American. :)
Both I believe are correct--depending on which part of the country-or Country-you live in.I grew up spelling it Gray--and now for some reason I use Grey--maybe Grey's Anatomy is in my head...
I love grey except on my head. I'm waiting for white and then I'll go natural. (Except I'll wear clothes of course)
Grey Gray is a wonderful neutral color. I like seeing it as a paint choice, it's a nice break from white
Call me weird but I use gray if it is a blue based gray and grey if it is a green based grey...not sure why I do, it just seems right.
It is grey over here in the UK and I love grey just as much as you!
Thanks so much for featuring my stool Lindsey! I love that dresser too! Hmmm, that would go perfectly in my room...
I love that footstool so much I want to MARRY it! Holy crap!
That being said, I'd like to add my "very important" 2 cents worth.
I prefer grey, and I most certainly prefer THEATRE! Just sayin.
it's also 'grey' in Canada. Thanks to our friends in the UK! (along with theatre, centre, fibre, litre..we like the -re apparently!)
Thanks so much you made my day ! :)
Grey in Australia too. Love the makeovers! Grey-t job!
That is the coolest foot stool.
Gra(e)y is my favorite too, because it is so easy to accessorize! I can add a pop of any color and it will match!
There's a whole website dedicated to the question"www.greyorgray.com" Love both pieces!
Wow. That's such a perfect job!
Hey, there's no big mystery about the word...."grey" is the UK/Canadian spelling and "gray" is the American. Just like "colour" and "color". Canadian/American.
I love, love, love it. Good job!!
