Cool Gray is hot, hot, HOT! Last year, I painted my living room Benjamin Moore's Abelone and love how the pale neutral gray makes the rest of my furnishings bolder and more colorful. I've since noticed a huge increase in retailers' offerings of gray furniture and furnishings. Here are my current favorites...
