Sweet Flower vs Snowbound

Where Sweet Flower belongs to Cloverdale Paint's range, Snowbound is a Sherwin-Williams color. Sweet Flower reads as blue-white, while Snowbound reads as beige-greige — two distinct hue families, not close cousins. Snowbound (LRV 83) reflects noticeably more light than Sweet Flower (LRV 77), a difference of 6 points that becomes especially apparent in rooms with limited natural light. The ΔE 6.5 gap is real but not dramatic — close enough to use together, distinct enough to matter as a choice. Below you'll find 5 real-room photo comparisons where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.

Sweet Flower vs Snowbound in Real Spaces

5 real rooms side by side. Sweet Flower and Snowbound are close enough that the difference can be hard to judge from a chip alone — these photos show how each reads at scale, across different spaces and lighting conditions.

Living Room

In a living room, color works across both daylight and evening light — the same wall can read very differently at noon and at 8pm. The brightness difference is modest but present — Snowbound gives the walls a little more lift.

Bedroom

The context that matters most in a bedroom is how a color reads under a bedside lamp at night, not under noon daylight. Snowbound reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

Kitchen

In a kitchen, colors are seen under bright task lighting that amplifies undertones — what reads neutral elsewhere can show its hand here. Snowbound reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

Dining Room

A dining room lit by a dimmed pendant or candles is one of the most forgiving environments for paint — warm light softens almost everything. Snowbound has the edge in reflectance, which shows as a quiet sense of added space rather than an obvious contrast.

Bathroom

Bathrooms are one of the few spaces where you're genuinely enclosed by the paint color, which makes the choice between these two more consequential. Snowbound reads slightly lighter here — a subtle but real difference in how open the space feels.

Digital color is approximate.

Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
