Spearmint Haze

5006-5C

Spearmint Haze is a muted green with a gray-blue veil over it. The gray-blue veil keeps the mint from looking too sweet. Bedrooms, baths, or mudroom cabinetry can take it when a clear mint would be too bright.

Shade makes it cooler and quieter. With daylight, the green becomes more botanical. Use clean white trim or natural oak nearby. Cream finishes may make it look less fresh.
