What color is Behr Craft Juggler?
Behr Craft Juggler MQ2-45 is a light, warm beige with a noticeable peachy-tan cast. Its softened, low-saturation look keeps it from reading overly yellow, giving walls a gentle warmth in daylight and a slightly rosier appearance under warm evening bulbs. Use this shade in bedrooms, living rooms, or hallways where a pale neutral should still have some color presence. Craft Juggler pairs well with creamy whites, medium warm woods, terracotta accents, natural linen, and muted olive or dusty blue details.

LRV of Craft Juggler
Craft Juggler has an LRV of 60.72% and refers to Light colors that reflect most of the incident light. Why LRV is important?
Light Reflectance Value measures the amount of visible and usable light that reflects from a painted surface.
Simply put, the higher the LRV of a paint color, the brighter the room you will get.
The scale goes from 0% (absolute black, absorbing all light) to 100% (pure white, reflecting all light).
Act like a pro: When choosing paint with an LRV of 60.72%, pay attention to your bulbs' brightness. Light brightness is measured in lumens. The lower the paint's LRV, the higher lumen level you need. Every square foot of room needs at least 40 lumens. That means for a 200 ft2 living room you'll need about 8000 lumens of light – e.g., eight 1000 lm bulbs.
