sw paint colors beige advice

8 years ago

I just got samples of Accessible Beige and Balanced Beige because everyone seems to love them but i also got samples of Vanilla Sugar and Cloth and Stone. I cant really find anyone that had commented on these 2 but i think I like them better. They seems like a more neutral pure beige color - less purple tones. Anyone?

Well my small area where I tried the samples used to be green so having 4 samples near each other and surrounded by green is making it tricky. I used China Doll is several house years ago and Ioved it is very close to Accessible Beige, but to me the color is more taupe than beige.

Vanilla Sugar HGSW3157 it is very different more yellow, less grey I think. When I look on line for reviews from people who have used Vanilla Sugar and/or Cloth and Stone it is literally impossible to even find it. No comments anywhere. All what's especially odd is when I go to HGTV SW collection, the number doesn't even seem recognized. I got the samples just this week so maybe its brand new?

I recently painted with Accessible Beige and love it. I cannot speak to the other colors.

Purple in Balanced Beige? I have over 1000 sq foot in BB and would never think that it has purple undertones.

Did you end up using vanilla sugar? I have it in samples too now and am considering it!

Following. I’m thinking of Vanilla Dugar as well.

I know this thread is older, but it's a pretty popular color and there's not a ton of visual reference out there so here's a picture of a space I recently did in Vanilla Sugar. The color balance isn't perfect on this shot, but it's a reasonably close representation. Lovely subtle color that works in any room:
