Glidden

Dancing Kite

PPG1119-4

Dancing Kite is a softened yellow-green with a dry, grassy base. It feels springy but muted. Test it in a breakfast room, craft space, or on painted furniture when cream would be too quiet.

White trim and pale oak keep it fresh. In large amounts, the green can look more herbal than the chip. Sample beside flooring before committing.
