Gray and Pink Chinoiserie

I especially like the combination of gray and Chinoiserie with pops of pink as we see in these rooms.

The Gray Chinoiserie Nursery

Our series on gray and Chinoiserie continues today with a wonderful nursery that combines gender neutral gray with Chinoiserie - Fromental wallpaper with elephants. Such a sophisticated choice.

Gray Walls or Wallpaper?

Traditional Home

When I was looking for pictures for my series on gray and Chinoiserie from my Pinterest boards and Pinterest, I discovered these. I suspect that the wallpaper company photoshopped the wallpaper in as the two shots are identical. But it is quite interesting to see the difference between the walls painted gray and wallpapered in a gray Chinoiserie paper. Which one do you prefer?

Gray Walls with Chinoiserie

Traditional Home

I love using soft gray walls as a background for Chinoiserie. Look how well these rooms work with gray painted walls as a foil for the Chinoiserie toile fabrics, blue and white Chinese porcelain, and Chinese antiques, and the way pink, blue and white, Chinese red, black, and turquoise blue all pop against it.

Fifty Shades of Grey

With the movie version of Fifty Shades of Grey premiering on February 13, I thought it would be fun to do a series over the next week on grey and Chinoiserie. We will look at grey/gray paint colors, wallpaper, fabric, and rooms that use grey and Chinoiserie. Grey is my absolute favorite neutral to combine with all the wonderful colors of Chinoiserie. The series begins tomorrow.
