Valspar

Sweety Pie

1008-4B

Valspar Sweety Pie comes across as a warm rose pink with a muted coral edge. It is sweet, but not pale. This color suits powder rooms, dressing areas, or a painted vanity where flattering warmth matters.

The value is light enough for more than an accent. Ivory trim, aged brass, or walnut can help, and surrounding neutrals should stay quiet.
