Well, PERSONALLY – as someone who has an anxiety disorder :), I find Revere Pewter to be a very calming gray, ESPECIALLY in south-facing light – I wouldn’t find it as gentle in northern light :).

Is this too muddy for a teen boys bedroom that is south facing? Looking for a light/medium gray that is very calming ( he has lots of anxiety). My whole house is Collingwood (and love it) but looking for something darker.

Thanks so much for the great info on RP. We have a new home with an open floor plan that is completely RP. I would like to paint the north-facing dining room a different color to add a little interest. I was thinking BM Palladian Blue or SW Sea Salt. Do you think one would work better than the other?

I had over 12 grey samples on my walls. They appeared purple, green, blue and silver but the RP didn’t look as muddy as final job. After spending almost a thousand having it painted in RP I have to live with it. I wanted a light grey but this, to my eyes, isn’t a grey at all. One good thing-it is next to kitchen and hallway which I did in HUSH, a color I knew and loved-they don’t clash.
Will definitely look at your reviews when picking a color for bedrooms.

Can you suggest a contrasting color to go with RP?
I’m painting bottom wainscoting RP and not sure what to paint walls above. I’m thinking BM balboa mist or Collingwood.

Hi Courtney, Thunder is beautiful, but will come up quite different from the other 2. It has a bit more weight to it and is a stormier, warmer gray with a purple undertone to it 😉

I was so torn between Thunder, GRay Owl and revere pewter.
But as its my kitchen, dining and living room, all one open space. With Yew flooring and Light Maple Cabinets revere pewter seems to be out from your youtube video!

Hi Bailey, thank you for your note! I do try to give as much complimentary info as I can on my blog posts and if that doesn’t help, I do have an affordable e-design service!

They are mostly eastern (some southern) facing rooms. Currently, the northwest entry way is SW Urban Putty and so is the southwest dining/living room. The dining/living room doesn’t get a lot of natural light, so I’m curious if you think continuing the revere pewter into the dining/living room is a good option or if I should go with something lighter like BM Classic Grey or BM Light Pewter?

Hi Audree, it’s hard to say, it would depend on how MUCH light you are getting from those windows and overall, what look you’re going for! I’d love to give you a definitive yes, but without seeing the room, I can’t do that comfortably!

Is there enough light from the east to use Revere Pewter? I was all set to use that color until I read this post…now I am questioning it! :p
Thank you!

Hi! Revere Pewter is beautiful for an exterior and as long as you have some white trim it should help to show the contrast, even when the sun lightens it! And yes, 25% could help a bit 🙂

However, I am concerned it will be too light (my house faces west but there is no shade and the sun tends to wash colors out. Would you paint RP on the exterior of your home and would you darken it by 25%?

Hi Karen! When it comes to personal questions, there is a lot more to consider, like exposure, countertop, flooring – otherwise I’m 100% guessing.

Hi Tina! I’ve done RP at 40% lighter with good luck. I’ve found that once you pass 25% lighter, there can be a shift in undertones. Now that doesn’t mean it will fall right off track, as it’s still based on the original foundation colour, but undertones can rise up/fall back…I hope that helps!

Hi! I’m looking for the half strength comment. I’m painting hallway and foyer and Kylie is right that RP is too muddy/green. Did I miss where the blog says half strength of RP in hallways is better? I have tried half strength and it is better. But, I’m comparing to Cornforth White from Farrow & Ball.
Hard to pick for a foyer and hallway as there are so many different light sources! Thanks for your thoughts. 🙂

Hi Brittany! I’ve had a client whitewash their stone with Revere Pewter (50/50 mix). I might lighten Revere Pewter by 50% and then mix if 50/50 with water. Otherwise I would do a standard ‘white’ whitewash. Either way, it’s about keeping undertones consistent and not throwing a new colour into the mix!

Hi Vivian, thank you for your note! This is actually the EXACT thing I do my e-design consulting for! I try to give as much complimentary advice as I can on my blog and if that doesn’t work, it might be time for me to take a closer look at your room via photos/questionnaire.

I’m painting my dining room and I have a chair rail, so I am planning to paint two different colors on the top and the bottom separated by a chair rail. I like Northern Cliffs for the top. What would you recommend for the bottom half? The rest of the main floor is painted Rever Pewter, so not sure if I should use that or Gray Owl. The room has very little light…just a double window under the front porch. Would love your advice. Thanks so much,
Vivian

Thanks for the note Rosanne!

I have used RP in most of the downstairs., big bright fam room, bright dining room , kitchen and hallway. Love it!! LR is separated by a hallway painted in FB Clunch. I would like to paint the LR but it is a dark room. Presently, it is a mossy green color and I want to brighten it up. Is there a light tan that works well with RP ? Would like a warm beige / tan color. Any suggestions? Thanks in advance!!

The exception is our family room, which is sunken a couple steps and has a lower ceiling so we’d like to keep it cozy with a slightly darker color. Do you know what would be similar to Revere Pewter but a shade or two darker? Thanks a million! I’ve been scouring your blog for weeks as we figure out our paint selections!

You know what, I just might still have it – it would be the Home Depot code though and won’t work anywhere else…let me go see…
Hooray, hopefully this works for you!
Sample pot: Behr Ultra Flat ULtra Pure White (this is the base of it which is important)
384th: BL 11 / CL 14 / FL 1.5

If you copy this down/print it off I’m thinking that might do the trick!

Good luck 🙂

Hi Melissa, thank you so much for asking! As I’ve been quite swamped with questions I’ve been referring most to my Online Consulting. This way I can get photos of the space as well as ask some important questions! If this interests you at all then here’s the link. My pricing does fluctuate a bit depending on how busy I am, so at this point your quote would be $60 and I would give you 3 paint colour options. Each option would have an explanation so you can understand how they might act in your particular space! https://www.kylieminteriors.ca/online-decorating-design-services/
Hope to hear from you!

Loved reading this blog. We just painted our kitchen cabinets revere pewter but I need help choosing a different wall color. We chose BM Thunder AF 685 (which was a taupey gray on swatch) and it turned out blue! It’s a north facing room. Any suggestions on what color we should use to make cabinets stand out? Right now they totally blend with the wall. Should we go darker or lighter on walls? Appreciate any advice! Thanks
