Lately all I can think about is painting my apartment.
Sometimes I think the builders beige (or whatever colour they put in apartments) isn't so bad,
but others times I look around and can't stand it.
I know it would look SO much better painted...
but it's an overwhelming thought...
to paint my entire apartment (even though it's small).
But literally, it's all I can think about lately.
"You should really just paint and get it over with," I say to myself.
"Your place would look so much better."
"The care you've taken to decorate and furnish deserves a nice background...not this builders beige shit."
Ugh. I can barely stand it.
And it would be so much easier a decision to make if I knew what colour I wanted to paint it.
That's a WHOLE OTHER ISSUE.
I'm torn between an off-white, like Moonlight White by BM:

Or a nice soft grey.
My latest obsession is Dolphin Fin by Behr:
(Yes, I have paint obsessions. I have a whole list of potential paint colours...)

You simply must check out her blog (and her house tour!)
Can't believe she pulled it all together so quickly!

Personally, I think the grey would be more interesting and that's the direction I'm leaning in (and, as you can see, it still works well as a neutral) but off-white seems like the 'safe' choice.
And because I'm already slightly overwhelmed by the thought of painting my apartment I don't want to do it twice. I'd prefer to get it right the first time.
Your thoughts?
Off-White or Light Grey?
