Vanilla Frosting – A Creamy Off White
Vanilla Frosting is a light, creamy off white, and arguably our most popular neutral. It's warmer than Simplicity or Crinoline, but less yellow than Cheesecake. If you want to update your furniture but keep it looking classic, you can't go wrong with Vanilla Frosting.
Vanilla Frosting complements natural materials such as wood, wicker, and rattan. It can also be used as a base color to highlight bold accents or patterns, such as a statement rug or colorful throw pillows!
