6 Reasons to Choose Grey!

6 Reasons to Choose a Grey Paint Color!

One of my favorite anchor colors to use when designing a space in a new home is grey. I have probably used way more than 50 shades of it over the years and I could probably list just as many reasons (or more) of why I like to use it, but here’s six of my favorites.
  • Grey Showcases your furniture. Grey is a perfect neutral backdrop to really help your Inside the Design Dining Roomfurniture stand out.
  • It Makes your accent colors really pop! Because grey is a neutral, most people like to use a couple of accent colors with it and it really helps to highlight your accent colors. Blue, green, orange, yellow, orange…really, you can’t go wrong with any accent color that you put with grey.
  • Grey is gender-neutral. Not only is grey a neutral color, it’s also gender-neutral so it helps to balance out the masculinity and femininity of a space (and every space should have both qualities to keep the balance!).
  • Grey is crisp and clean. Grey has a tendency to effortlessly appear both crisp and clean. No matter if you choose a warm or cool tone of it, it always comes out looking fresh and clean.
  • Grey isn’t always an attention grabber, but it’s almost always an attention giver. Grey tends to be perfectly content with letting other items steal the spotlight, like your trim work. It helps showcase your trim work (especially white trim), adding helpful dimension to your space. I love when detailed crown molding get its due respect.
  • Grey fits in anywhere! Grey is a color that fits in with most all design styles, making it the perfect backdrop for mixing and comingling styles.

Do you remember going to a Greenville Braves game at the Greenville Municipal Stadium? I know I do, they were such a major staple here in the city before we were the “booming metropolis” in the state. So many nights at the park with my glove, Greenville Braves hat, and a bunch of those ice creams in the upside down helmet (you know what I’m talking about). The team had their highs and lows throughout the years, with arguably their best season coming in 1992. A few of the guys on this list help guide them into the history books in becoming the Southern League’s first 100-game winner. So without further ado, here are some of the biggest names in baseball (in no particular order) to come through # yeahTHATgreenville !

Some of us remember the days before “#yeahThatGreenville,” the days when we were just little ole’ Greenville, SC. Entertainment was simple back then, anyone between the ages of 5 and 65 spent Friday nights right off of Mauldin Road at Greenville Memorial Stadium. Mauldin was home to our AA Greenville Braves, or “G-Braves” if you were local. Greats like Chipper Jones & Tom Glavine to the “shy & humble” closer from Georgia, John Rocker, those games were star-studded. Looking back on how many G-Braves actually made it to the “Bigs,” makes me even more proud of Greenville, SC. So if you are new(ish) to Greenville and want to be able to wear the Old Greenville Braves hat with confidence, here are 7 facts that should catch you up.

Have you caught on to the virtual gaming craze , Pokemon Go, that has revived a beloved 1990s Nintendo game and nearly knocked Twitter off its pedestal? The former kids’ gaming sensation was launched by Niantic as a mobile app for adults last week in the U.S., Australia and New Zealand. Greenville Reddit users have provided an assist for those residents wanting to scour every corner of town for “Pokemon Go” points by compiling a user-friendly Google map of about 150 Pokestops at gyms, offices and businesses across the city. If you are into Pokemon Go in Greenville make sure to head downtown, where there is an influx of pokemon, pokestops, and pokegyms. Check out the crowdsourced map below for dozens of specific locations. If you have another spot, feel free to add it to the map.
