I think color appears diffently to the eye in every space its used. What might look great in one house with just the right wood tones, fabrics, lighting, etc, may not look good at all in a different setting. I guess what I'm trying to say is either paint big squares of it around the room and look at it in every light or paint it on poster board and put that around the room. I have one friend who uses a lot of Powell Bluff so I tried it in my entryway, up my stairs and upstairs hall, and after living with it for awhile I absolutely hate it at my house. Loved it at hers.It looked too peachy at my house. I have another friend who used BM Dunmore Cream. I love it at her house and thought maybe that is what I needed. So my husband repainted part of the walls for me in that. I've lived with it for awhile but I'm not crazy about it either. I've decided I need a color with more gray in it and am also considring Carrington Beige and Manchester Tan. (Thats why I checked out your thread when I saw it...lol) Good luck. I know I'm frustrated.

*bump*

Ironically I just bought and tried a sample pot of BM Huntington Beige yesterday. Yep, very definite green undertones which ruled it out for me. I am painting the upper 1/2 of a bath wall, bottom is white tile. The color looked very strange in my low-light bathroom, almost greenish gold. I guess you could say it had no warmth at all. Might look ok in room w/ alot more natural light.

Hope all goes well with baby. When is h/she due? In answer to your question, what I meant is these colors are less "light reflective" than the off-whites more popular today. If you kitchen has a lot of windows, then any of the colors you mentioned would be OK. Realist Beige has an LRV of 59 (on a scale of 0-100; 100 being most reflective of light, ie. brighter to the eye); Manchester Tan has an LRV of 64; and Kilim Beige has an LRV of 57. Colors to consider are SW Natural Choice LRV 74; SW Egret White LRV 70; and SW Creamy LRV 81. All need to be compared to your cabinet color to ensure the right tone is achieved. You can order samples of the colors in 12x12 sheets for around $6.00 each from samplize.com. I use them all the time, because in the long run it is cheaper and no bottles of paint to dispose of and no purchase of foam boards, brushes and making the samples up. Plus, you get a real true sample of the color. Might try at least say 2-3 of your favorites if you can. Our SW store is taking call ins for chips for curb pick up. You could get all those chips and then decide what few to get the larger samples of so you can contrast and compare. Best of luck with the baby! I can't imagine being pregnant right now and I hope everything goes really well.
