The adding coffee to white paint tip, is amazing! I'm always looking for warm whites but I don't like them to be too yellow or too dark beige and it can be tricky, I usually end up mixing my own but mixing in a hint of sepia or burnt umber but the coffee made the perfect colour and everyone has it. I am actually painting the bedroom in my new house a white colour called Swiss Coffee which is pretty much exactly the colour you created here! I love all your pots and your designs esthetic too!

Thank you so much, I loved the result in terms of the colour as well and yes it is sometimes hard to find that perfect shade of warm white but with this trick you can adjust how white or beige you want it to be. Swiss coffee sounds great, I don't think I would be able to get that on the market here, which brand have you purchased?
I like your white outfits , your classy makeup , your hard work and warmth in your speech😊
