Can anyone recommend a pale SW yellow?
I'm looking for a good SW yellow to do a nursery if anyone has any ideas. I've been looking online, but I can't seem to find a nice nursery shade. I got a sample of SW Friendly Yellow and SW Optimistic Yellow and I think they both might be too dark for a nursery. Any suggestions please?? Thanks!

Re: Can anyone recommend a pale SW yellow?
I love SW Cottage Cream! It's in our DR and Kitchen. It's a very soft subtle yellow that isn't in your face but in the sunlight it really glows. IMO it's hard to get a yellow that isn't too bold but still has color. When we were testing out sample colors I found that the colors looked much more yellow on the wall than they did on the small paint chip. What looked yellow on a paint chip was much bolder on the wall. Cottage Cream looks like a cream color with a yellow undertone on the paint chip but is definitely yellow on the wall.
Here's the best picture I have showing the difference between the sunny and non-sunny colors (that's our DR in the back):
Sorry, it's not SW, but we have BM Weston Flax and really like it, so you could aim for a color-match or something similar to that.

I just painted my kitchen SW color matched to BM Weaston Flax and I love it! I had the friendly yellow and the optimistic yellow samples, and I agree-- they were just too... yellow.
