Creamy white satin

Please recommend a very slightly creamy white for my wood work.

PBW looks much too stark. The windows are cream. I got a colour match to the windows painted all the wood work but now it looks yellow!

Preferably something I can run & grab from B&q (e.g. Dulux)

Thanks in advance!!

Anyone? I'm in a hurry arghh!

Wondering how Timeless or Natural Calico would look?

Antique white from the B&Q colours range.

Thanks JoJo - is that white? Or creamy?

Creamy white Wink

Thank you :) any idea how this compares to Dulux timeless?

I've already painted it pbw which was too stark then fine cream which was too yellow so this really is my final attempt!!

I don’t know about Duluth Timeless. Why don’t you get a few testers to try to make sure you get it right? Repainting everything sounds like a lot of effort.

Farrow & Ball All White is a very soft cottony white. It's not cream but is definitely not pure white. Wimborne White is a very pale cream that looks white next to more saturated colours but looks cream next to white.

F & B pointing is a lovely off white

Thanks, got a few samples so just waiting for the British sunlight to arrive!!

Ive found wood work colours quite difficult as trying to avoid the dreaded yellow skirtings!

If you have not started painting, try Dulux Gardenia. It is a good clean light cream.

Good luck.
