What color is Sherwin Williams Honeypot?
Sherwin Williams Honeypot SW 9663 is a light, sun-warmed cream with clear peach and soft golden-beige undertones. Its high brightness keeps it airy on broad walls, while the warm cast prevents it from reading stark or icy. In south-facing light, Honeypot can appear creamy and lightly apricot; cooler daylight may bring out its subdued beige side. It suits kitchens, breakfast rooms, nurseries, and living spaces where white cabinetry, pale oak, woven natural fibers, or warm brass are part of the palette. Pair this shade with muted terracotta, soft clay pink, creamy whites, or deep olive accents for contrast.

LRV of Honeypot
Honeypot has an LRV of 74.88% and refers to Off‑White colors that reflect a lot of 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 74.88%, 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.
