Is it blue or mint?

13 years ago

I painted my daughters room Sherwin Williams Window Pane because I love that way it looks in this picture. It looks blue on my computer but my daughters room turned out mint green! Is yours minty in person or did Lowes color match my sample wrong?

It's definitely slightly minty, but a pretty good mix of blue and mint. Sort of a very pale Robin's Egg. I'm sure it greatly varies both by monitor/screen, and the light in the room, etc. sorry you're not happy with the shade!

the wall color looks better in the picture than in reality. it is flat and lifeless. I'll look at SW Window Pane but would still appreciate so much more ideas. thanks!

@anne dee: room does not seem harmonious. I would love to find the colors and layout that bring it together so that it is indeed cosy and not too scattered. thank you!

great design. I think this light will match more for decoration and focusing for the painting than the lamp-shaped light.
