Overalls in art match the Dutch Door, cabinet paint in BM CL, and ceilings, and the pegboard with pans.

Can you clarify if you're painting over existing cabinets or if you're having new ones made? If the latter, then @User has the right answer. But if you're painting over existing cabinets, the yellowing could be a factor. I specify Chantilly Lace a lot for kitchen cabinets (see photo below of a recent project of mine). This photo, however, represents the color on fully custom cabinets.

Susie Q and elcieg (and others), which BM flat formula, for ceilings, in Chantilly Lace do you suggest? I'll have BM Advance Waterborne semi-gloss woodwork (including crowns) in CL. Walls will be some TBD BM paint in eggshell. My painter wants to use BM Regal Select--not Aura--I assume because I have lots of walls to cover, and it's the mid-level for cost. He also suggested a very cheap, ultra-flat (says coverage is great) paint for ceilings called, SW "CHB" (Chicago Home Builders paint--only available in the Midwest). It's used by builders, often for large-scale new construction on ceiling and walls. Or, he said, for more money ("But why spend it?") he'll use BM "Ben" flat paint in CL. I hesitated saying "yes" to either and asked why he wouldn't want to use BM's Waterborne Ceiling formula in CL? He made up a side-by-side test board of SW CHB (always an ultra-flat white) and BM Waterborne Ceiling formula in flat CL. I propped the sample up on a ladder and stared at it while reclining. Hate these decisions. I don't want to redo the ceilings any time soon, so I want good coverage and a nice tone match to the CL trim. I'd say the SW CHB appears slightly "bluer" or more grayish. If I do insist on Benjamin Moore tinted to CL to be safe, is their "Ben" formula too cheap or not as good for ceiling coverage? I'd rather spend more on paint than extra labor for multiple coats, regardless of brand, but ultimately I want it to match as best as possible. I know plane and sheen differences affect color perception. Thanks for any advice.

What wall color go well with Chantilly Lace (BM) ceiling for bedrooms?

It all sounds well and good, but if you do white woodwork and CL ceiling…the ceiling will look dirty. I love CL, so do the woodwork in that (semi-gloss) and the ceiling CL in flat finish. Or do white dove on the woodwork and white dove on the ceiling. Trust me on this one.
