WHITE

Planning for a vacation is quite a lot of work. I give credit to people who do it and do it well.  And people who have a knack to seek out a good deal.  A coworker of mine visited Iceland last year.  Crazy.  He and his wife went in the winter because it was a cheap destination.  They loved it.

While I'm not in that planning mode right now, I am planning my first house project of 2013.  A bedroom renovation.  More specifically the boys room (they share a bedroom somewhat to their dismay). 

My plan is relatively simple and it will be a DIY project.  Yikes.  A built-in closet system, a desk for homework (possibly a two person workstation), paint and decorating.  Easy, right.  I'm thinking about doing two different wall colors.  A darker grey on the far wall with windows and matching paint on the near wall where the desk will be located.  The side walls will be white (imagine that).  So I am searching for the perfect white paint.  I've yet to find it.  I'm looking for a white with grey undertones.  A white that gives a vintage, I've been here for awhile tone.

Does anyone have the perfect white paint color they would be willing to share?
