What color is Behr Party Hat?
Behr Party Hat P560-3 is a light, muted lavender with a noticeably cool violet cast softened by a grayish haze. Its low-key saturation keeps it from reading overly sweet, making it suitable for bedroom walls, a powder room, or a quiet reading nook. In bright daylight, the pale purple character is clearer, while evening lighting can make it appear more silvery and subdued. Pair Party Hat with crisp white trim, soft charcoal accents, pale oak, or brushed nickel for a clean, modern mix. It is best used across larger wall surfaces when you want color that remains gentle rather than dominant.

LRV of Party Hat
Party Hat has an LRV of 57.34% 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 57.34%, 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.
