Valspar

Nursery Wall

P101

Nursery Wall is a muted aqua-green with a gray wash. It is softer than mint. The color can bring calm to a bedroom or bathroom without feeling sugary.

Clean trim makes it fresher. Light wood and woven shades keep the green easy to live with. Under warm bulbs, it may move toward soft sage, so check the sample at the time the room gets used most.

Nursery Wall 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.
