Watery is a light, but not too bright, mint green color, perfect for our coastal kitchen! It definitely has a lot of baby blue to it, making this a great pale blue green color.

This is more of a gray with blue and green undertones – heavy on the green. It can look more muted in certain rooms, and more colorful in bright light. It’s a great option for a more neutral look!

This is another dusty mint green color. It has a lot of green, a medium amount of gray, and a small amount of blue, just enough to give it that light, bright, sea glass look.

Wythe blue

This is a medium toned blue-green paint color has a bit more blue to it, but is still pretty solidly green. It’s got just the right amount of color depth to be interesting without feeling dark or making a room feel smaller.
