    I would say a light green to tie in with the leaves? It's a pretty comforter

    Thanks. Is there any way i can look at color options on houzz?
  • 13 years ago
    Is the base color a baby blue? I love that!!!

    If you go to 'browse rooms' (top bar), Accessories & Decor, Paint, Stains and Glazes, you can see lots of paint colours. Bear in mind that they will look very different on screen than they will do on your wall. But it gives you an idea.

    Thank you!

    My pleasure :-) Very pretty comforter. I do think it will work with lots of colours. I am assuming you're talking about wall colours?
  • 13 years ago
    Would a green like this go?
  • 13 years ago
    Yes i am talking about wall colors:)
  • 13 years ago
    Yes, good choice. Mind you, it will look different on your walls, so try it out first. But it does look really good on screen.
    You could take a pillow case to the paint store and see what works. They can even mix a colour to match.

    Cool! Thanks

    That Sherwin Williams green is called Minted. Try Balanced Beige or Rookwood Clay for some greige selections.
  • 13 years ago
    Well, im trying to add color to the room, cause the furniture is mostly white. Would those colors help?
  • 13 years ago
    Do you share this room with a man? If so, I think the grege would be better than the pastels. Use them for pillows, throw, chaise.
  • 13 years ago
    No, this is my own room. Im trying to pick more pastel colors, cause i think they are very pretty
  • 13 years ago
    You could do green, that red/pink or aqua...I am instantly imagining blown glass candle holders or lamps in any of those colors. I see those kinds of things in at least green and aqua all the time at Homegoods, TJ Maxx, etc. If you are wanting to try paint colors, Sherwin Williams web site allows you to upload photos and change the colors. It's a very nice feature of their site. I wouldn't go by a few gallons of paint without getting some actually swatches and painting a sample, because every monitor displays color slighly differently, but it gives you a very good idea if you are heading in the right or wrong direction!

    I'd love the same soft white as the bed platform on the walls, and then colors from the bedding used as accents around the room.
  • 13 years ago
    The website wont let me do the color visualizer. I think i will do the green, but can you help me find a blue accent color for the wall behind the bed?
  • 13 years ago
    I think you should go with the green for the whole room. Remember textures add to a room just as color adds. I like all the white in this room. You can add some blue accents if you think it still needs something. Maybe blue lamp bases against the green wall?
  • 13 years ago
    Good idea! Thank you!
  • 13 years ago
    Are you referring to the SW Minted? Are you thinking of a darker or lighter blue?
  • 13 years ago
    Im doing the minted green color with blue furnishing highlights
  • 13 years ago
    What do you think? I love this lamp, and it would add color
  • 13 years ago
    Ok so not an accent wall, you're going to do a piece of furniture painted a blue, right? If so, that sounds like a great idea.
  • 13 years ago
    Yes. I decided the green would look good on all the walls. If i can find curtains the same blue as the lamp, that would be great. I can already imagine my room with this lamp and wall color and silk-like long blue curtains. Aahhhh....
  • 13 years ago
    Is your bed white, too? That’s important.
  • 13 years ago
    My bed looks like this. Well, the bed im getting. Im completely redoing my room. New wall color, new bed, new accessories
  • 13 years ago
    I love that you can already imagine the room and that your first feeling is AHHHHH......that means it is RIGHT!
  • 13 years ago
    Lol, I know what you mean. The right blues and greens together, so pretty and serene. I'm looking for a nice blue for a piece of furniture for you. Do you want to go to a medium blue instead of as light as the green?
  • 13 years ago
    I hope so! I just bought my house, so im redoing what the previous owner has done. Its a little house, with only 1 bed and bath, which is fine cause its only me!

    I would go darker on the walls, but with a green undertone. My choice is Bm Sea Star because it will be a more sophisticated background for all those pale ice cream colors in the bedding.
  • 13 years ago
    Thank you bumblebee! I was thinking more of a medium blue for everything. It's a small room so i would need to save space:)
  • 13 years ago
    Thanks guys! I think im going to stick with the minty green and darker blue highlights
  • 13 years ago
    The lamp you posted looks to be different shade than the comforter.
    I think it needs to be more turquoise if I'm not mistaken.
  • 13 years ago
    Oh, that's pretty! Thank you! What website did you find it on?
  • 13 years ago
    Pottery barn,
  • 13 years ago
    Cool thank you! I need to go; i will see what you helpful people say when i get back. Thank You again!

    Do you need drapes for privacy or just for looks? Notice the white sheer flowing panels in the picture? They add a nice soft texture.
  • 13 years ago
    Echo, one more question, the blue in the bedding, is it a true blue, a turquoise blue ?
  • 13 years ago
    Ok, here's a combo I picked for your walls and blue piece(s) of furniture: the wall color is still light, still green, still pastel, but a more subtle, softer backdrop than the Minted. Two choices for medium blue to go with it:
    Languid Blue
    Greening
    Rain
    If your heart is set on the Minted, I think either of these two blues will still work.

  • 13 years ago

  • 13 years ago
    Should turn out very nice! Post for us to see!
  • 13 years ago

    Congratulations on your new home. Exciting times. Fun to be able to decorate your new place just as YOU like it :-)
    I would go with the green for all walls and white linen (or cotton) curtains. Perhaps you have space for a blue bench or chair in your bedroom?
