Valspar

Woolly Mint

V026-1

For rooms that need green without fuss, Woolly Mint gives a light version of it. Try it for a bookcase back if the trim is warmer than gallery white. Cool LED light can flatten the warmer side of the color.

A darker corner will tell you more about Woolly Mint than the sunniest patch. Avoid icy companions. Give the shade breathing room if the floor or textiles are already busy.

Woolly Mint 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.
