I was actually thinking something really bright like a neon green but I really like the red comforter with his bedroom set and am not sure if that would clash. I know u can't see the room good in the pic but you can get the idea, very basic, furniture is the same as the bed. No other decorations to have to match up.

I wouldn't do neon green, but a nice dusky/lime green might be nice. Then there's always blue or mocha. You want to do something that'll be versitle for the years to come, as painting rooms sucks to do more than once a decade, IMO. :)
That or be really macabre and paint them black. Then paint silver starts on them maybe, with glow stickers on teh ceiling for an outside effect. This would be fun for a small kid, maybe getting him a nightlight that produces a starlab type thing as well.

Don't do anything that'll clash with the red. Not to mention, if he hates the green a year from now, it'll be hard to cover it. Why not pick an accenting color? Or do bright lemon yellow with royal blue trim? Or, try to match the lighter blue in the spiderman stuff?

Why not do 2-3 colours. You could "stripe" his room using the green, plus yellow, blue, and red in differing widths. Then put up pics of different things he likes. His bedding would still work in the room but it would have a different energy. Also consider a stripe at about chest-eye height of chalkboard paint. Then he can "change" his room any time he likes by erasing and re- drawing it.

try the neon green and decorate with accessories that incorporate a large range of colors all tied together so it doesn't clash.
the mod look would be good for the colors you like (bright and bold). but i'm not sure how that would work for a little boys' room? hmmmmmmmmmm...

a seven-year-old probably has his or her own ideas on what color would be most agreeable for the walls of his or her bedroom. you can always offer another choice if the child's choice is too awful, but let the kid make a decision--it's good practice for life.

Maybe do a wall scene in primary colors.But whatever you decide to do stick to primary or maybe muted or pastels.Maybe if he likes a certain theme paint the wall in that theme(racing,outdoors,firetrucks) you can get stick on wall kits to use and it could encourage his imagination.

Put a chair rail up. Darker blue on the bottom and lighter blue above.

I like the color it is, another thing you can do to leave that color and dress it up a bit is put a border around the top, something he likes, fish, sports, animals, etc.....Good luck PHB
