Step 1: Select Paint Type / Application


A match of Martha Stewart B09 Thyme Flower reads as a soft, muted mauve-gray with a slight pink-violet cast. It is neither bright nor strongly warm, and the low chroma gives it a quiet, softened appearance rather than a clear pastel.

MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to this color is useful on small parts and fixtures that benefit from a subdued mauve-gray finish. It can be applied to vent covers, switch plates, speaker grilles, brackets, shelf hardware, frames, railings, mailbox parts, and other sprayable accessories where a repeatable color matters more than a broad design change.

Because the color is moderately light and low in chroma, finish and substrate can shift how it reads. A smoother, more uniform base usually helps the pink-gray balance stay consistent, while darker or patchy surfaces can show through more easily and may need extra coats for even coverage. Sheen also affects the look, with glossier finishes tending to make the undertone appear a little more pronounced.

About Martha Stewart Paint Colors

For many years, Martha Stewart provided paint and color collections through partnerships with paint manufacturers and sold them through various home centers. A few years ago, Martha Stewart decided to stop selling paint and as a result, Martha Stewart B09 Thyme Flower is no longer available anywhere.

MyPerfectColor is able to match all of the Martha Stewart paint colors including B09 Thyme Flower so you can still find and enjoy the colors you love. MyPerfectColor uses its expert capabilities to recreate the original Martha Stewart B09 Thyme Flower 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 B09 Thyme Flower 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. You will achieve the best results by re-coating the entire surface.

MyPerfectColor does not offer matches of any Martha Stewart Specialty Finishes such as the faux or metallic finishes.

Frequently Asked Questions About Match of Martha Stewart™ B09 Thyme Flower *

How does finish affect the look of Martha Stewart B09 Thyme Flower after MyPerfectColor matches it?

Finish changes how much light the coating reflects, so the same MyPerfectColor match of B09 Thyme Flower can look slightly different in matte, satin, semi-gloss, or gloss. A higher sheen usually reads brighter and shows more surface detail, while a lower sheen reduces reflection. The color target stays B09 Thyme Flower, but the final appearance on the part is also shaped by the finish, substrate, and prep.

If you are matching a specific item, choose the finish based on the surface and use of that item, not on the color code alone.

Which finish should I choose for Martha Stewart B09 Thyme Flower in MyPerfectColor spray paint?

Choose the finish that fits the object you are painting and the look you need on the finished part. In general, lower sheens hide surface irregularities better, while higher sheens are easier to clean and reflect more light. Because B09 Thyme Flower is a matched color, the sheen you select will affect how that match looks once applied.

For spray-painted parts like trim pieces, fixtures, hardware, baskets, or decor items, the best finish is usually the one that balances appearance, cleanup, and wear for that specific item. If the item will be handled often or cleaned regularly, consider a more durable, easier-to-clean finish.

Where can I find the SDS for Martha Stewart B09 Thyme Flower MyPerfectColor paint?

The SDS is tied to the MyPerfectColor paint product and chemistry, not to the Martha Stewart B09 Thyme Flower color name by itself. If you need the safety document for the product you are ordering, use the MyPerfectColor Safety Data Sheets page here: https://www.myperfectcolor.com/Safety-Data-Sheets/33970.htm

Review the SDS for the exact MyPerfectColor format you plan to use, since safety information can differ by product type.

Can Martha Stewart B09 Thyme Flower be ordered as MyPerfectColor spray paint for crafts and accessories?

Yes. MyPerfectColor custom spray paint matched to Martha Stewart B09 Thyme Flower is practical for small projects such as baskets, frames, shelving, furniture accents, decor pieces, and other removable items where spray application is easier than brushing.

It is a good fit when the goal is to coordinate the object to the selected B09 Thyme Flower color reference. As with any spray project, surface prep and the substrate will affect adhesion and how closely the finished item reads to the target color.

How do I confirm Martha Stewart B09 Thyme Flower before ordering a MyPerfectColor match?

Confirm Martha Stewart B09 Thyme Flower from a physical swatch or another known original color reference before you order. Screen images can vary, and the color name alone does not tell you how the painted surface will look in your lighting or on your material.

MyPerfectColor matches to the selected brand color reference, so verifying that B09 Thyme Flower is the correct target before ordering helps reduce the risk of choosing the wrong color. This is especially important if the new part will be compared against an existing painted item.

How do I find the same color as the Martha Stewart B09 Thyme Flower in a different company?

While MyPerfectColor can provide paint matched to the Martha Stewart B09 Thyme Flower, 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.
