Valspar

Lazy Sun

3006-6A

Lazy Sun carries a bright peach gold with a creamy orange undertone. The peach feels relaxed. Overall the color stays warm.

Consider it where a gentle glow is welcome, such as a nursery, sunroom, or painted ceiling. On large walls, it can look more apricot at sunset. Use warm white trim, then let pale oak handle the accent. Avoid using it beside stark blue white, which may make the warmth look louder.
