Valspar

Puppy Paws

M144

Puppy Paws is a pale biscuit beige with a peachy cream undertone. It bounces light well. On walls, trim, or a nursery, it feels warmer than a standard off white.

The brightness can show every mismatch in nearby whites, so compare it with doors and cabinets. Natural fiber rugs and warm metals fit the color better than cool chrome. Sample trim and walls together.

Puppy Paws 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.
