| Does anyone have any idea of a similar soft yellow paint color for the walls in the dining room in "Something's Gotta Give"? I was told it was mixed and it's all lighting, but there MUST be a color like it out here in the real world! I have tried more than a dozen and can't seem to figure it out!
Here's a link to it...

| Take a look at a paint chip from the Home Depot, brand Behr, color "Cornerstone". See if it *matches* what you're perceiving on your monitor. Another option is Jersey Cream from Sherwin Williams. Finding a buttercream yellow like that is actually kinda easy - many brand's palettes have something similar just a process of elimination to find it. |

| I would second the Sherwin Williams Jersey Cream. I think it's very close to what you're seeing in your link.... |

| I will add that I have vaulted ceilings and a second story landing that shows from below that will be all one color...just trying not to be too yellow, but soft, if you get my drift! |

| We painted our front room in Valspar Homestead Resort Sunwash and it looks very close to your inspiration picture. |

| I also have the Valspar Homestead Resort Sunwash in my dining room. Love it. |

| Thank you to all the posts! I did try the Jersey Cream, and while I love it I think it may turn a little too bright yellow for me. So I am now toning it down a bit...trying Vanillin and Napery by Sherwin Williams. Will see how that does! |
