Daffodil vs Honey Bees
Both are Sherwin-Williams colors. Both sit in the beige family, which is useful context if you're narrowing within a single hue direction. With LRVs of 71 and 70, they'll behave almost identically in terms of how much light they reflect back into a room. They share a warm quality — useful to know if you're layering them in the same space. At ΔE 5.3, the difference is perceptible but not dramatic — the two can work harmoniously in the same space. Below you'll find 1 real-room photo comparison where both colors appear side by side, plus 5 simulated room previews.
Daffodil vs Honey Bees in Real Spaces
1 real room side by side. Daffodil and Honey Bees 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.
Mudroom
A mudroom color needs to hold up under the most casual scrutiny: a glance as you're coming and going, often in mixed or artificial light. The distinction reads clearly at room scale, making the choice between them concrete.

5 simulated room previews — drag the slider on each to see Daffodil on one side and Honey Bees on the other.
Digital color is approximate. These simulations are generated from the manufacturer's hex values and overlaid on grayscale room photos — your screen's calibration, brightness, and viewing angle all affect how they render. Before committing to either color, test physical samples in your own space under the light you actually live with.
