can you provide internet links to look at, from the home depot site, I took a quick look but did not come with anything, even searching with your numbers ?

We bought a frieze from Depot, at the time it wasn't on a roll in the store which is what I think you're talking about. The one we used would work with any paint color.. Hubby & I both loved it. It was the one with a sandy/light base with flecks of green, taupe, maybe mauve. The other we liked was the green base.

Looking at a chip online of Danville Tan, the frieze we used looks like it would go with it.

Sorry, colors aren't available online. If anyone has carpet suggestions from elsewhere, that is fine. I can compare the colors for a close match.

There is no carpet on a roll at the store, but there are 4 inch square samples that you can take from the store. There are many different shades of taupe/brown.

I am wondering if I should try to match the wall color closely for a unified look, or go with a either a lighter or darker shade for contrast. I am afraid if I go darker, the room will look like a cave.

I thnk you're doing this the hard way. You like the price point of the carpet so pick a color that you like and that you think/hope will work with the paint color you have. If after the install it's not quite right - change the paint. It's so much easier to make the small adjustments to paint than to struggle trying to match/blend carpet that cannot be changed. If the existing Danville Tan isn't quite right you can easily go a bit lighter/darker/grayer/browner/redder - whatever you need to do.

Long story and unfortunately, I'm kinda stuck. I don't forsee paying for a painter to redo the wall color. I am sure I can find carpet -- whether it's Home Depot's or another -- just hoping for some suggestions if someone has used this wall color. Lighter or darker than wall color, for example?
