Paint color dilemna

16 years ago

My husband and I are clashing over this one. I want to paint the master bedroom BM Wedgewood Gray. He thinks that since our carpet is beige, that it won't match. I told him that I think a neutral color like that would like just fine, but he wants to see pictures. Does anyone have anything like that or have an opinion?

Another question, too. I just painted the powder room SW Ivoire, but I need a ceiling color. Our floors are brown and beige marble design (ceramic tile).

DH is questioning the color now, since the floor has brown in it, and he thinks the walls would have looked better with browns instead of the gold in the Ivoire. Any thoughts on that?

Thanks for your help!

The wall color in this picture is called Wedgwood. :) The ceiling is aqua. The carpet is indeed a light beige. One of the background colors in the rug is beige too. Juxtaposing blues with beiges, golds, or warm colors in general is one of my favorite color combos. Balanced and yummy.

As far as a ceiling color with Ivoire, you could take Ivoire up to the ceiling too. But you have to like that look. I also like SW's Dover White with Ivoire if you prefer a *white* ceiling.

Both colors will be just fine with the floor colors. The only time there's really an issue with floor color is when you choose a "matching" paint color that is slightly off. Such as beige carpet with yellow undertones paired with beige paint with pink undertones. For the bathroom ceiling go with a warm white or a percentage of the wall color. Good luck!
