Tired of using neutrals in every room of your home?  Looking for a color family that’s both on-trend AND historical? Ponder no longer. Mustard yellow paint colors are here. You’ve found the ultimate guide to the best mustard yellow paint colors from Benjamin Moore. These are some of the very best.

These type of yellows sometimes include those classified as gold. However, mustard yellows are usually more muted by the inclusion of gray or brown in their make up, making them very earthy warm colors. If you are also a fine artist dealing with paint for canvases as opposed to walls, you’ll also know this color as ochre. These are very natural looking colors as the pigments for them are minerals and their use goes back hundreds of years. I would consider them earth tones, in fact.
