What color is Benjamin Moore Holiday Wreath?

Benjamin Moore Holiday Wreath 447 is a muted, medium-dark green with a noticeable gray cast that keeps it grounded rather than bright. Its balanced red and blue base gives the color a neutral-to-cool character, while the softened green reads like foliage seen in shade. In bright daylight, Holiday Wreath can appear clearer and more leafy; lower or warmer light tends to emphasize its smoky, subdued depth. It has enough weight for cabinetry, a study, or an exterior door, and can also create a quiet, enveloping look on walls in a dining room or entry. Pair it with warm whites, charcoal, aged brass, natural oak, or stone finishes for contrast without making the green feel overly sharp.

LRV of Holiday Wreath

Holiday Wreath has an LRV of 14.49% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little light. Why LRV is important?

Light Reflectance Value scale illustration

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 14.49%, 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.
