Sherwin Williams

Gleeful

SW 6709

Gleeful is a yellow-green with a noticeable yellow undertone, registering an LRV of 66 that provides strong light reflectance. Its muted, earthy quality keeps it from reading overly bright, making it functional in sunrooms, casual living areas, and spaces with moderate natural light. It coordinates cleanly with Creamy and Alabaster for trim and ceiling applications, maintaining a warm neutral frame.

Naval delivers a bold complementary contrast, Tricorn Black anchors the palette with definition, and Filmy Green offers a softer tonal step for adjacent walls or accents.
