After buying some more paint samples, I was relieved to find exactly the kind of colour I have been looking for - sort of light stone, without a yellow tinge.

It's Dulux Ash White

OK. It might look like grey, but it's still a warm colour. It will go with my aubergine light fitting, and the monotone kitchen, and because it doesn't have a yellow tinge, it doesn't clash with the wooden floor.

We've mixed up 10 litres, so I know what my job will be this weekend!
