A match of Martha Stewart 8279 Peacock Feather is a light blue-green with a cool undertone and a muted, gray-cast character. It reads softer than a bright aqua and less deep than a saturated teal, with moderate clarity rather than a sharp, vivid look.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to the selected brand color can be useful on smaller parts and accessories that need a controlled blue-green finish. Common spray-paintable uses include HVAC vents, speaker grilles, switch covers, mailboxes, brackets, shelving uprights, railings, shutters, PVC trim pieces, cabinet hardware, and furniture accents. It can also be applied to metal, plastic, wood, wicker, and previously coated items after proper preparation.

Because this color is moderately light and fairly muted, it generally covers more easily than a very bright color, but darker or uneven substrates can still show through if the coats are too thin. Finish, texture, and film build will affect how cool or gray the color appears, and glossier finishes can make surface defects and sheen differences more noticeable. Good cleaning, sanding, and priming help the match read more consistently.

About Martha Stewart Paint Colors

MyPerfectColor uses its expert capabilities to recreate the original Martha Stewart 8279 Peacock Feather by matching the original Martha Stewart color books and swatches. MyPerfectColor is not using Martha Stewart paint as this is no longer available.

MyPerfectColor matches Martha Stewart 8279 Peacock Feather based on Martha Stewart color publications. The colors shown on this website are computer video simulations of the Martha Stewart Color and may not match Martha Stewart Color standards. Refer to Martha Stewart Publications to obtain the accurate color.

Please know that MyPerfectColor is matching the original Martha Stewart color. If you intend to touch up paint that has been on your walls for years, know that your color has undoubtedly changed from the original due to exposure to light and age and the new paint may not match.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Martha Stewart™ 8279 Peacock Feather *

Can MyPerfectColor match Martha Stewart 8279 Peacock Feather for plastic parts, and what should I check first?

Yes, MyPerfectColor custom spray paint can be matched to Martha Stewart 8279 Peacock Feather for many plastic projects, but plastics vary a lot. The best approach is to clean the part well, test the paint on the actual plastic, and confirm the surface is one that accepts coating. If the plastic is a low energy surface or otherwise hard to bond to, use MyPerfectColor primer for acrylic enamel to improve adhesion before applying the color coat.

Will Martha Stewart 8279 Peacock Feather look the same if I order it in a different finish from the original surface?

No. The same Martha Stewart 8279 Peacock Feather match can read differently in matte, satin, or gloss because finish changes how light reflects from the surface. If you are matching a part that sits next to an existing painted item, check the finish on that item before ordering so you choose the format that best fits the project.

How do I confirm Martha Stewart 8279 Peacock Feather is the right color before ordering MyPerfectColor paint?

Confirm the target from a physical swatch, a known existing painted item, or another reliable original brand color reference before ordering. MyPerfectColor matches to the selected Martha Stewart 8279 Peacock Feather reference, so screen images alone are not enough to verify the color. If the project depends on a close match, make sure the reference you are using is the exact color you want reproduced.

What prep does Martha Stewart 8279 Peacock Feather need on metal or over an existing coating?

For metal or a previously coated surface, clean off grease, dirt, and contamination first, then remove loose rust or failing coating and scuff any glossy areas so the new finish can bond better. The condition of the old coating, along with its gloss and texture, can affect how Martha Stewart 8279 Peacock Feather looks after application. If the item will sit next to an older finish, a test spray on the actual surface is a practical way to check adhesion and appearance before painting the full part.

How much Martha Stewart 8279 Peacock Feather paint do I need for my project?

Coverage depends on the size of the item, surface texture, hiding power, application method, and how many coats you need. A typical can of spray paint covers about 20 square feet with one coat, while other paints typically cover about 400 to 600 square feet. For Martha Stewart 8279 Peacock Feather in spray paint, plan extra if the surface is rough, dark, or likely to need more than one coat.

How do I find the same color as the Martha Stewart 8279 Peacock Feather in a different company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Martha Stewart 8279 Peacock Feather, we don't provide any crossover information because this is a subjective determination. Every paint company offers its own unique selection of colors and rarely does a color have an exact equivalent in another company's color collection, so determining which color is the best approximation is a judgement call.

However, under the color image on a color page there is a link that says "Explore Related Colors". Clicking this link displays colors with similar values and you can look for any colors from the company you want.

Keep in mind that this just shows similar colors based on the color values we have stored in our database. It doesn't mean it is the same or give any approximation about how close the color is. You can play around with the Hue, Lightness and Chroma sliders to expand the selection.
