What color is Sherwin Williams Craft Paper?
Sherwin Williams Craft Paper SW 6125 is a medium-deep brown with a clearly warm, earthy cast. Its #8a6645 value suggests muted golden and orange-brown undertones rather than a gray or cool cocoa appearance. In bright daylight, Craft Paper can read as a dry, sunbaked brown, while lower or warmer lighting brings out its richer, more grounded depth. It suits studies, dining rooms, mudrooms, and accent walls where a substantial color is welcome. Pair it with creamy off-whites, muted clay tones, aged brass, natural oak, leather, and woven textures for a layered, material-focused interior.

LRV of Craft Paper
Craft Paper has an LRV of 15.34% and refers to Medium Dark which means that this color reflects very little 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 15.34%, 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.
