Valspar

Spring Joy

V061-1

Spring Joy is a light sage-green with a muted yellow-gray undertone. It feels fresh but controlled. Bedrooms, baths, or a kitchen nook suit it when gentle green is wanted.

On larger walls, the color reads more green beside white trim and more neutral beside oak. Pair with linen or brushed nickel. Heavy cream cabinets need testing, since they can make the sample look dull.

Spring Joy 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.
