What color is Sherwin Williams Dollop Of Cream?
Sherwin Williams Dollop Of Cream SW 7120 is a very light, warm off-white with a creamy beige cast and a faint peachy softness. Its high brightness keeps walls looking open and airy, while the warm undertone prevents it from reading stark or icy. In daylight, Dollop Of Cream appears lightly sun-washed; under warm bulbs, it can take on a richer, more buttery cream appearance. It suits living rooms, bedrooms, and hallways where a clean white would feel too sharp, and it can also soften kitchen cabinetry. Pair it with natural oak, woven linen, tan leather, muted terracotta, or deeper brown accents for a grounded, layered palette.

LRV of Dollop Of Cream
Dollop Of Cream has an LRV of 84.45% and refers to White colors that reflect almost all 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 84.45%, 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.
