Default I need "villages vanilla" white paint

I need about a pint of "Villages Vanilla" off-white paint to do some touch-ups. It's the basic paint most of the house interiors and garages are painted with. Can't find any at Home Depot or Lowes that match.

Tomorrow I'll call Home Warranty to see where they get theirs, or try a contractor that's building a new one.

Try the paint store at Pinellas Plaza Suncoast I think, they have all of the villages colors.

I got some paint at Sherwin - Williams. There are about 50 shades of Villages White out there, The Villages changes the specs frequently. Call the warranty office and they can give you the paint colors used on your specific home. THen you can visit Sherwin-Williams and they can match it up. They did a really nice job for me. Good luck.

If you call Home Warranty and give them your unit number, they should be able to give you the color numbers you need to get the same color. Worked for me when my interior wall touch up paint was no longer useful.

I think you can get it at Color Wheel or Sherwin Williams.

Default Found my paint.

Sherwin Williams in LSL cooked up a special blend called "Hayseed". It was non-returnable and matched perfectly.

It is from the paint store over on 44 north near Russell Stover candy store. Can't remember the name of the paint store. Just had trim wainscoting done in our home and I asked the trim workers where they got the Village paint and he said it all comes from that store and the name was Village Vanilla. Good luck��

Default Touch up Paint

I need some touch up paint and have been to Lowes, Home Depot, Sherwin Williams, and the Pinellas Benjamin Moore store. All of these tried to match my paint but it didn't work. Our home was built in early 2011 and I think the paint number is CL2892W which is a flat interior wall paint. We used up the small can the builder left and Sherwin Williams kept our old can. If anyone has a small amount they don't need, please respond to this post. Thanks.

Call Home warranty, and ask for the paint codes, and which company painted your house. Between the home warranty and the painter you should get the brand of paint, and then take this to SunCoast (?) Pinellas Plaza and they will be able to get you an exact match.
NOTE: if you are trying to match OUTSIDE paint, this is subject to bleaching and dirt accumulation, both of which change the color and make it very difficult to match.
Hope this helps.

I have had Dad chip off a bit of paint and Ace at Southern Trace matched it perfectly.

Go to Sherwin Williams. Give them your address. They will call the villages while you wait and get the color codes for your home.

For what its worth, we were told the color used in our house was "Chenille White". I believe its a Sherwin Williams color. This is an 11 year old Gardenia in Winifred.

Hayseed is not white. It is sort of a 'cream' color.
