Valspar

Purple Mist

4002-9A

Purple Mist is a bright pale lavender with a cool gray veil. The color feels airy. It can work on bedroom walls, a bath ceiling, or a closet where white would feel unfinished.

Because it reflects plenty of light, it will show the lavender clearly in sunny rooms. For Purple Mist, Ivory bedding plus pale maple. Avoid harsh blue whites.
