Valspar

Fiesta Blue

5003-10A

Fiesta Blue is a bright turquoise-blue with a lively green undertone. It feels playful. Paint it on a bath vanity, porch furniture, or laundry room wall when color should be part of the design.

The value sits around mid range, so it will show strongly. Crisp white or natural cane keeps the edge clean. Keep nearby patterns simple. The blue-green already carries the movement.
