Laura's Insights

You know what things are gray? Prisons, concrete, mice, Grandpa’s Buick, skies on a rainy day. Yet, somehow gray has been the most popular interior paint color for the last decade, and like so many others, I painted nearly every wall in my house a shade of gray.

I’m not sure how this gray obsession began, and even when I asked some experts, no one knew for sure. Someone mentioned the home-flipping reality TV duo Chip and Joanna. Someone else pointed a finger at the Kardashians.  I don’t know who gets the credit for it, but it’s time we rethink our use of gray. We’ve overdone it.
