Le noste ferie tra montagne, castelli e strudel

<span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Buongiorno! Allora, tutti rientrati? Oggi è il 1 settembre: l'inizio di un nuovo anno di blog, di lavoro, di progetti e di tutto quello che verrà! Ho passato delle belle ferie e mi sento ricaricata e piena di energia! </span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Queste vacanze sono state un po' particolari per noi: siamo riusciti a fare un bel viaggio di famiglia attraverso le Alpi per giungere in Baviera e visitare i famosi e magici castelli di Ludwig II. Noi, io e Maxi le ferie le abbiamo sempre organizzate e pensate come viaggi alla scoperta di posti sconosciuti, lontani come il Sud Est asiatico o vicini come l'Europa. Insomma mare-sole-spiaggia non fa per noi. Piuttosto un bella escursione sulle nostre magnifiche montagne!</span><br /><span style="font-family: Verdana,sans-serif;">Così, quest'anno abbiamo deciso di cominciare a mostrare un pezzettino di mondo a Sofia e Amedeo per far loro capire quante cose meravigliose ci sono da vedere, quanti posti stupendi, modi di vivere, cibi e lingue diverse da scoprire nel mondo. Abbiamo scelto una meta vicina e siamo partiti!</span><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><a href="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhpa3RTXmTsnMFSKX-ULjmUiUXYRI7JJVweTSk3jWNsKKs4TiSreVtD7hQRrRnpxklAIOxpgPhPslU5lL4vKn1OumqnYStRXQdxj9XV35KnimXwpq7OxBBxdDqGwfLPoJdEmb-QjLkXDlA/s1600/neuschwanstein.jpg" imageanchor="1" style="margin-left: 1em;

My dream would be to start over and paint the entire house in a silvery grey with some darker grey rooms/accent walls splashed in, but we can't afford that right now. </div><br /><div style="background-color: white;

Results are an overheated color scheme.  Peach tones will work nicely with a medium to dark gray sofa, and you can pretty much ignore the whole peach color scheme, as it will become a neutral and a background as you add more of your gray tones and your accent colors.  When you can eventually repaint with the colors you prefer, you won't have to redecorate again.  Find a rug that has colors you love but that will also look nice with the wall color - Here's an example of what I'm trying to explain...<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

Every gray I have tried either <b>goes beige</b> or is too dark. The room has north and west facing windows (that are typically kept closed with matchstick blinds). Any suggestions? Right now I'm considering Gray Mirage, possibly cut 50%.....

text-align: left;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br />Next, look for a gray with a slight green to blue undertone - not enough to actually look green or blue, but enough to stop it from turning beige.  Gray Mirage may work for you because it has a slight green undertone.  Here are a few more to try that are both lighter in hue and lacking a beige undertone - but that still have that beachy feel:</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
