I need some input. I am trying to select a paint color for my foyer (which is very high and VERY bright). I want a neutral, off-white color. I'm thinking of something with pink undertones- kind of a seashell color. But not pink pink, if that makes sense. I don't want people to walk into the house and think "Holy hell, PINK", but I want to warm up the space a bit since it is so big and bright. 

I want to stay away from yellow undertones.

The floors are a warm, neutral marble (beiges, gold, ivory, pinks).

All the trim will be a bright white- Decorator's White.

My painter will only use Benjamin Moore paints.

So far I like:
Sand Dollar
Cream Froth
Pink Damask
Lily of the Valley
Acadia White

Anyone use any of these colors before? Thoughts? Input? Personal experience?

There was a blush white color I liked that was kind of pinky! Too much pink for my space, but I would work in a bigger space

Agree with jamaicam - we need pictures and pictures of the swatches too! I'm terrible picking out paint color, so I'm not sure you should take my advice anyway

I am no help esp because I'm color blind and have a hard time with subtle color differences, but just wanted to say I love pink and want my entire apartment to be blush colored. Can't wait to see what you pick!

BM paints aren't available here so won't be any help but want to see the space anyway And also, that's the standard response on H&G so felt I should add it here.

My app isn't working and won't let me download pictures! I never look at other boards, but thats a good idea to look on H&G.

And rjamz, do you remember the name of the color?

I love blush too. The man nearly went apoplectic when he heard the word "pink", so my painter and I are working without him and both acknowledge the P- word cannot be used when he comes to show us the samples lol.

White blush! Just found it

Late to this bebeetmoi, but I tried more BM whites than I care to share (lol), and several looked "pink" against decorators white that weren't on a blush toned paint strip. So try some of the "regular" whites too. Avoid Swiss coffee and white dove, and maybe see what the next shade down from silver satin is- that one reads a very pale grayish pink on my walls.

For those who can't see it--go to the benjamin moore site. they have all their paint chips there.

How about Pampass Grass?

Not a fan of Sad Dollar. I like the rest.
