Nurseries and Baby Gear

Please recommend a nice yellow paint color

I'd rather do light green, but DH really wants yellow.  This will be a gender neutral nursery.

I don't want something so bright that the nursery isn't calm and soothing.  I'm thinking more of a creamy/buttery yellow.  However, I don't want it so light that it looks like boring beige.

Any recommendations? Thanks!

  • We used Ralph Lauren Evocative Sunlight and love it.

  • I used Martha Stewart's Haystack on a canvas in our nursery and love it.  We are trying to sell, so I couldn't paint.  We will use a similar color in our new house once we sell and build.

  • Sherwin Williams Creme. ?I had the exact same thing in mind as you do for a bathroom, and this?definitely?fits the bill. ?It looks more on the cream side on the card, but I bought a $5?sample?can first, and its a little more yellow on the walls, truly buttery. ?

  • Ben Moore 373 Yellow Iris. With the natural sunlight it looks paler, with the ceiling light turned on it gets a bit more yellow. I was also looking for something not too bright but not too beige.
