Essential to many schemes is a good yellowy off-white. Here it is – a time honoured favourite – hence our use of a good old fashioned name, used in a bill for painting the Old Parlour Lobby at Dyrham Park in 1694. Maybe the closest shade we have to the ubiquitous ‘Magnolia’ but our Creami Colour could not be more different. Our natural paints are eco friendly – our manufacturing process is carbon neutral and we do not produce toxic waste. Painting the future with plant-based paint.
The Edward Bulmer array of paint hues are our recommended foundation to residential and commercial projects providing an unrivalled depth and backdrop to our interiors commissions. Moreover, the natural qualities allow rooms to ‘breathe’, particularly important to those Clients with period properties. Our go-to colours include ‘Water Glass’ for a cool contemporary feel, together with the likes of Creami Colour and Milk White for more of a traditional atmosphere.

We have spent years perfecting our pioneering plant-based paints and we are proud of the product we have created using gentle chemistry and a lot of dedication to making a more sustainable paint! We believe we are pioneers in creating natural paints using plant-based ingredients instead of petrochemical derived products.
Unlike many other paint brands, what’s in our tins is on our tins! We declare all of our ingredients, read our full list of ingredients and learn more about how our paint is made.
We use our local courier service called APC which is based in Hereford. APC operates franchises throughout the country and we can deliver parcels throughout the UK on an overnight service.
We are not able to offer returns, as all of our paint is mixed to order and therefore is a bespoke product.
NB: We will accept returns of non bespoke products which include preparatory products.

It sounds silly, but it’s difficult to find a great white, just because the choice is endless, but for us Silver White, with its touch of grey is extremely versatile.
I just love the colours and it has really helped to see them in the flesh
My decorator said it was the best paint he had ever worked with!
My parents’ lounge has just been painted in Brimstone – the colour looks wonderful, and it has made such a difference to the room and to how much we all enjoy being in it! Our decorator had not used Edward Bulmer paint before and was very impressed with its quality.
The most universally flattering pink, perfect for bedrooms and bathrooms, making everyone look radiant and like you’re in soft focus. It works well with well with white towels, marble and can also take on stronger colours to make it more masculine.
We have created this calculator to help you estimate the amount of paint you will need for your project. Please note that this is only an estimate, based on normal surfaces with two coats of paint.
Please check our practical painting advice - if you are painting onto a very absorbent surface, you may need more paint, and for best results, you may need to prime your surfaces.
If you end up with any leftover paint, get inspired with ways to use any excess paint - it's even compostable!
