What Goes With Sand Dollar Shell

Light and the Right Finish

In different light: Sand Dollar Shell warms up under lamps and afternoon sun, and stays soft and light in north-facing rooms.

Best finish: A matt finish looks smooth and modern in living rooms and bedrooms; use a washable soft-sheen in kitchens, bathrooms and hallways.

Before You Start

Check a tester patch morning and evening, as off-white shifts with the light in a room. A second thin coat evens it out, and a leftover tin handles later marks.
