help! BM Calm or Dove Wing?????????
Comments (0)Is there anyone with a fan deck out there? Or knows these colors. This is for my kitchen/family room the trim is white dove and the bookcases as well. I plan to use the wall color including the ceiling in the dove wing or the calm. I am afraid the Dove wing might have too much creamy to it, but I am also afraid of grays if they are too blue or too green. My colors to accent are very dark hardwood, black granite, some red/pink/burgundy with a possible bright blue in a print on wall. Any opinions?? I really appreciate it....See MoreTake the Yellow out of BM White Dove wall paint?!
Comments (94)WD is not my favorite white, but many do love it. First you need to test some whites with your other finishes - floor/counter and backsplash. You also need to consider the trim color that you are using in the rest of your house. Do you have white trim? What color is the current trim color? Whites often do not play well with other whites. When you have picked the color have to have a sample painted with whatever paint the cabinet painter is using. Their color matches are not always perfect, so better to find out before they paint all your cabinets. Many people who have used White Dove have re-painted with Simply White. It still has some yellow undertones, but never looks dingy. WD can go dingy. Personally, my favorite is a color match that BM stores mix for me. Match of Devine Color™ V0101W Icing. The difference between Simply White and Icing is that Icing leans just a bit more toward the orange yellow then the green yellows. I sometimes detect a touch of green (Chartreuse) in Simply White. Computers do a lousy job depicting whites, but this is an analysis of several of the whites that were discussed in this chain. The LCH designations are L - how light the color is, C - Chroma - how colorful or gray the color is and H- Hue - where the color falls on the color wheel. Yellow range is 72-105 Yellow green is 105-130 As you go down in chroma and the colors get closer to gray we see it as a blue or cool undertone (Chantilly Lace, Decorators White)...See MoreBM oxford white cabinets with BM white Dove walls
Comments (10)I have ordered custom cabinets that will be painted in BM Oxford white. We are thinking of painting the walls in BM white dove. Will the two colors go together? Yes, they go together for two reasons. White Dove belongs to the Yellow hue family and Oxford belongs to the Green-Yellow hue family; they're far enough apart in terms of hue but not too close together. Secondly, there's enough difference in Chroma between the two that one won't make the other look dirty or dingy. White Dove will actually make Oxford White look cleaner, crisper and more white. If this works should we also paint the trim in oxford white? Trim, doors, cabinets should all be the same color of white. You should wait for your cabinets and then have your trim/door product color matched to whatever version of Oxford White they turn out to be. Because the cabinet maker is probably color matching to Oxford White best he can in whatever product he's using. It's unlikely your cabinets will match an Oxford White paint chip spot-on....See MoreHeartbroken over Dove Wing
Comments (13)I think Dove Wing looks very nice in your light filled home! Leave it and accept the fact that you will most likely have this effect with any paint color! Your home is flooded with light; the ceilings are high, the rooms are open, you have skylights! Rejoice in the beauty of all that light! Or cover your windows, close up the skylights and dim the lighting! 🤷🏼♀️once you finish furnishing your home you won’t be noticing these variations in color....See More

4 years agoYes, I painted the walls and trim BM Dove Wing. I do not have crown molding and the baseboards are very small. Semi gloss used on window sills, baseboards, closets, bathroom cabinet, & doors. The first two pics were taken around 6PM as the sun is setting. The rest of the pics were taken this morning.
