Valspar

Izzys Mittens

V038-4

Izzys Mittens is a medium light violet with a pink-lavender cast. The lilac has body. A dresser, vanity, or small bedroom wall can carry it when the surrounding palette stays restrained.

In cool light, the blue side becomes clearer. Warm lamps bring out a softer plum note. Cream bedding works, and brushed nickel is useful if the room needs a cleaner edge. Sample near carpet to avoid a dusty finish.
