Valspar

Dreamstress

8003-44A

Dreamstress is a pale mist blue with a cool gray cast. Its bright, cool value can lift a low ceiling without feeling icy. Dreamstress suits baths, bedrooms, and ceilings where a slight blue lift is wanted.

High brightness keeps it airy. Creamy trim plus natural textures prevent the room from feeling too crisp. View it beside cabinet hardware before locking the palette in daylight.

Dreamstress in Different Light

Light temperature is measured in Kelvin: a warm 2700K bulb pulls colors toward yellow, while 5000K daylight reads cooler and truer. Check the color at the time of day you actually use the room.
