All about this perfect neutral paint color on the blog! Link is in my bio. We gave this dresser in our bedroom a little paint facelift & tried the color “Shiitake” by @sherwinwilliams . And we’re LOVING it! It’s such a beautiful grey-beige & would be so good in so many different spaces. #sherwinwilliamsshiitake #swshiitake #neutralpaintcolor #bedroompaint #cottagestyle #shiitakepaintcolor
