SW Alabaster on north-facing room walls?
Comments (2)Ellen Kennon's Classic Cream. People like to say that you can't use white in a dim room. They say that because they don't know how to find the right white. A full spectrum white, no black or gray in the mix is often the antidote to a dim room. http://www.ellenkennon.com/art/Classic%20Cream%20DR.jpg...See MoreSW Alabaster or SW Dover White for kitchen cabinets??

Comments (6)We used SW Natural Choice on walls, and BM Cloud White on trim (a warm white) but use what you love or paint a small area and see what you think. In our house the natural choice leans very slightly green.....we used 2/3 strength in the rest of the house, except for the dining room.....we live in high desert and low humidity....which can affect how colors look! Here is 2/3 strength of natural choice with cloud white trim Here is full strength natural choice with cloud white trim....See MoreSW Alabaster or SW Pearly White - Help!
Comments (3)Thank you for your input. Unfortunately, we have to pick the paint color before lighting is in. We are also having to select wall color from out of state making it extra difficult. I am about ready to go back to one of my tried and true - Agreeable Gray or Repose Gray. If I select off white and should use the same color on trim then Alabaster would be the best option, I think Peary white will look off for the doors and trim in other areas of the house....See Morecahibiscus
