Valspar

Dash of Pink

8001-12A

Dash of Pink is a bright blush with a clean peach undertone. The hint is soft. It can warm a bedroom, bath, or closet without feeling overly pink.

On walls, the color may look almost white until sunlight catches it. Use cream trim, then bring in light oak for depth. Cool gray accents can make the blush look thinner, so keep nearby materials warm.
