I love Sherwin Williams Ambergris...

I am currently painting my living room a golden honey color and I'm loving it. I am so bored with the dreary , no color rooms. I want sunshine in my house..

summer field or mustard seed by Behr????????

Just make sure you bring the swatch to the room and look at it there in your room first to see how it looks, not the store!
You can also buy those little sample sizes to try out on the wall first before investing in a gallon.

Try Sherwin Williams Restrained Gold or Concord Cream

Golden Wheat looks pretty too by BM???

@mpoulsom I have samples that I have used on a cloudy day, sunny day and at night. Once I settle on a yellow, I will have my painter apply it to a section to check it out before I go ahead with it. Thanks for the advice!

What direction is the room facing?

Room faces southeast

Butter by RH is a nice yellow..

Purchase 2' x 3' poster boards and paint 2 coats of your color sample choices. Do not paint a piece of the wall. Move the sample boards to different walls and during the day & at night to see how the areas you will be painting will REALLY look.. Yellow is one of the trickiest shades to use because of how all forms of light play off of it.

There is a beautiful paint color from Ralph Lauren which might work well with the south exposure. Tibetan jasmine. It is an off white, really, but it gets this beautiful glow.

I have a sample of Hawthorne but was thinking it may be too deep. Will check out Weston Flax.

I found a picture of weston flax and off white cabs.

I think Hawthorne looks better with white than off white, anyway.

Judy, the Weston Flax looks beautiful in that kitchen. And....that's our granite! Many thanks!!!

I really like Ralph Lauren Claude

perretti - Trick I've learned is to also test yellows that appear dijon / more tan on the swatch and to make a much bigger sample,board then carry it around / next to everything / look at them in all artificial and different times of daylight . . .some will eliminate themselves. The more muted shades that look like pale honey pick up light on the wall and say warm afternoon "sunlight" - You might also test bm waterbury cream http://www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/paint-color/waterburycream
and adams gold

Everyone has different latitude / exposure conflicts . . . but yellow more than any other color will pick up reflections of what is around it . .. so, especially with yellows test, test test.

Most of the suggestions haven't really given you any yellow choices, they all seemed to lean towards creams. I like the yellow on this piece of furniture, sorry I can't identify it. My livingroom receives south, east and west light and I painted it in Gobi Desert by Behr. A sunny room can handle a strong colour.

I agree that you should paint a few samples of yellows before choosing. In our last house we had a beautiful butterscotch yellow (don't remember the name of the color) in our kitchen. My mother in law bought the same color and in her kitchen it looked brown. Good luck!

Behr 'Riviera Sand' is a medium yellow but neutral as we'll. I've used throughout first floor and common areas/staircases. Here's a couple pics, in the family room I combined with a blue toned accent wall.

Cltaylor- Love the richness of your color combinations. is the yellow very dark at night?

Thank you. No not really, nice warm glow with lamps and over head lights. My family room is cozier at night but because of the darker curtains and leather furniture. Very nice with sunlight streaming in.

Chose BM Philadelphia Cream for foyer, kitchen and great room. BM Sundress for dining room. House faces west. Couldn't be happier with the choices. Still unsure as to how Philadelphia Cream got its name. It is definitely a soft, buttery yellow. Thanks for the advice everyone!

Love above creamy colors. My house used to be mossy green but I changed it to Navajo white. Loved it!
