Every now and then you come across a paint color that just sticks with you. It becomes a favorite and you find yourself looking for places to use it. Dove White by Benjamin Moore is that just that for me. These days I’ve found myself leaving grays behind and gravitating more towards whites and creams. I find warm whites to be inviting and quite timeless and Dove White is great neutral and is a creamy warm color.
A couple years ago when we first bought our home we painted our bedroom Moonshine by Benjamin Moore. It was a very neutral gray. You can see our bedroom in gray here. I liked the color but I found myself wanted something lighter and warmer. I had painted our kitchen in Dove White and knew that it was the perfect choice in our bedroom. I absolutely love the result!

Our dresser than was once gray also go a little paint. The black is a much more classic look and pairs with the new wall color perfectly. I still need to polish the handles. Maybe one of these days I’ll get around to that.
Isn’t it just the creamiest color? I just love how the sun hits it about mid day.
We also have this color on our walls in our laundry room. I paired it with Backwoods by Benjamin Moore on the cabinetry. It works well with those bolder colors. You can see our laundry room refresh here.
Here’s the same color in our kitchen and breakfast nook. You can see our full kitchen renovation here. I used it in full sun rooms and rooms that get very little sun light. I truly believe that Dove White looks great pretty much anywhere!
Do you have a favorite paint color? I’m always finding new favorites but it’s nice to have one to fall back one that never seems to grow old. It’s like an old friend you can count on. Have a lovely weekend friends!
Love the Dove White – it’s the creamiest of whites! And it looks so lovely with your furniture as well. Your trim color pairs perfectly with it. May I ask what color you chose for all your trim? For me that’s the tricky part – selecting a trim to compliment wall paint color. Thanks so much!
Thanks Carolyn! It really is creamy. Its been so nice to a calm, soothing color in that room. It’s nice to wake up to as well. The trim is actually just basic white trim paint off the shelf by Valspar, nothing fancy. : ) I’ve seen Simply White by Benjamin Moore used several times on trim and its beautiful. I have it on the walls in my office and guest bedroom and I love it. It’s a cooler white but still warm. It would pair with Dove White really well.
Hi can you share what color black you used on your dresser and interior doors?
