I like the Summer Sorbet...

That is one of my favorites! It has a little more green to it! Thanks!

I like the Summer Sorbet and Bird's Egg. Calico Corners carries the bird fabric in your pillow, btw, if you need more.

hmm.... I like the fourth from left and the last one on the right - it is kind of hard to tell though - the last one on the right, best

Thanks! KJMama it is hard to tell. The colors are not very true at all.

I like the third and fourth from left and the far right.

I like the one on the far right too! Good luck

I too love the far right one, it's more muted and will adapt to your room, imo...

I didn't have a lot of time to fuss with this, but think you should go with a soft sandy brown. It will give contrast and make the bedding pop more. Using a blue or similar color on the wall will just wash out the bedding and you won't see it as much.

This is just a brown I pulled off the cuff, SW Mesa Brown:

And this is a blue I pulled for a quick comparison, I forgot to get the name though sorry.

What beautiful fabric! My mom just used SW Quetitude & it is lovely. Jockeywing has a post showing his bedroom in that color.

Smiles:)

Wow!Lukkiirish, thanks a lot! That does make a huge difference in the bedding color. I am so lost on this. I have envisioned for so long the green-blue on the walls but I really see how the beige makes the bedding pop.

I also would prefer a warm tan to a blue tone. You want your gorgeous bedding to stand out, not become just another part of the room. ;o)

I saw the photos of bedroom done in Quietude. REally beautiful. Check it out.

Lovely bedding! I would suggest the tan or an off white on the walls, and perhaps do the ceiling in a blue that you like?

Your welcome for the pictures, a visual is always helpful. I understand the desire for the aqua walls, is it too late to change the bedding so you can reverse your color palette?

I disagree. I think a tone on tone all blue look would look good. It depends on the feeling you want. If you want more drama, go with the contrasting color. For a more soothing look, go with the tone on tone. And as the owner of a Quietude-clad bedroom, (btw those pics of mine don't even come close to capturing the color of the room at all!), I can tell you that blue-green is such an amazing color to have on the walls. Everytime I walk in to my room I am just so happy to see that soothing, lovely color. Since your bedding is pretty much a true light blue (at least it looks that way on the monitor), using a warm blue with a green undertone may provide some contrast. I really don't care for 'cool' blues on the walls. I find them too stark and cold. I think the green undertones give so much warmth and depth to blue walls.

I love beach cottage look. (Heck, I'd love to have a beach cottage! ;D )

Not to overwhelm, but I just wanted to suggest you take a look at Lowe's Valspar Signature Colors line "Seaside Retreat". The palette is very beach/ocean/cottage, and there are so many soothing colors. Any manufacturer should be able to match it for you, I've had lots of Lowe's colors mixed by BM and am content (and I'm picky ;).

jockewing we know you like the quietude, but if you want to highlight the bedding or a feature, contrast of some sort is needed otherwise the colors just bleed into each other. .
