So just to compare the paint companies’ colours with the matched paint on the end of the wooden stir stick, here’s what they look like.Ĭlosest Benjamin Moore match, Acadia White, OC-38 (but not really a great match): The closest Valspar match was 7002-8 and I would say out of all the colours by the paint companies, this was the winner, but even still, it wasn’t bang on.Īnd then I remembered that all of these hardware stores can do colour matching! Duh! I don’t know why I didn’t think of that sooner!? So out I trekked to Home Depot with the front of the dresser drawer to have the paint colour matched. Then I compared the CIL colours, but none of those were even close: Definitely closer than any of the Benjamin Moore colours, in my opinion. You can see above that Acadia White by Benjamin Moore is fine, but it’s definitely not bang on.Īnd then holding the swatches up to the dresser drawer (the photo directly above) you can compare the closest match, which is Clear Moon PWN-30. I started with the Benjamin Moore paint chips: I pulled out one of the drawers from the dresser and started setting up paint chips on it. It was surprisingly difficult because without the dresser in front of you, the paint chips closest to its actual colour look way off! Who knew the IKEA white is actually very cream rather than white? I went to Benjamin Moore, Home Depot and Lowes and picked up as many white/neutral paint chips as I could find.

But I wanted to see for myself – and it’s a good thing I did, because Acadia White isn’t nearly as close to the IKEA white as I would like. I did a few Google searches and the most popular matching paint colour was Acadia White, OC-38, by Benjamin Moore. The IKEA Hemnes White Colour Matching Challenge But what paint colour is IKEA Hemnes white? You know the IKEA Hemnes 8 drawer dresser I was talking about last week that was a lot bigger than I thought it would be? Well, there are a few other things I’d like to paint to match it.
