Answer 3

Moroccan.
I think the jewel colors is hot! Emerald Green, Ruby Red, Mandarin, Plum, etc...
Silky satin pillows and throw covers with gold trimming. You can probably find a nice brass chandelier or lamp (like a Jeanie bottle)at a thrift store for cheap something gold to accent the trim on the pillows, you can even paint them if you can't find the right color. Fancy silky curtains. Soft luxurious rugs. Anything with beads to hold back the curtains. You can drape silky material over your headboard or picture frames. Silk is pretty expensive, but they do have material that is a really good match for silk.
Your friends will be jealous!

The use of color is also something very personal. It stimulates our senses, power our mood, and helps create a particular ambiance. How we respond to an individual color depends on our nature, extroverts tend to feel happy with bold colors, while introverts prefer more passive colors.

Through using specific combinations of color, combined with a careful consideration of simple color schemes is often the most effective.

Try not to use more than one or two principal colors in a room, as well as a contrasting or balancing tone. The best way to choose a background color for the room is to trial with a palette of different shades and tones, in combination with the color and textures of the furniture and materials. Remember the general color schemes of a home have to be in agreement. The walls define the space in a room, while the colors, to a large degree, define the mood.

Colored light, furnishing materials, and structural proportions, we can create a home that is welcoming, helpful, and comfortable. Walls are similar to background music: each color tone is like a musical note can create a pleasant-sounding harmony while others grate with each other.

The color with which we surround ourselves will without doubt have an effect on us, and so it is important to feel comfortable with our choice. A discussion with a professional color consultant can help to decide individual needs and select appropriate color.

Colors can be divided into three main groups: those that stimulate and uplift, those that relax and calm, and those that provide harmony or balance. So, having taken a number of things into thought when decorating a room, such as the size of the space, the amount of light, the function if the room, and the style and mood we wish to create, we finally, and most importantly, need to consider the needs of the people who use it.

Answer 5

I'm not sure any of the colors you descibed would be the best for a bedroom...they sound like beautiful colors, but very strong. I would suggst a more calm yellow if you really want a yellow, more like a maise shade, or better yet, a true lavender or pale lilac if you want to stay in the purple family.
Good luck and have fun!

Answer 6

Mandarin is the choice, since its better than the other 2 options you have listed.

If you are open to other colors also, go for a light blue and green shades. It will soothe your senses and gives a fresh feelin when u wake up every morning. They have psycological effect also.

Answer 7

Depends on the lighting in your room.
Is it very dark? Not a lot of windows? Go with Yellow. It will create light.
If your room is dark then purple might make it seam darker.
Orange will add warmth.

I like yellow..it's good for the spirit.

Answer 8

Light Yellow or Shell Pink

Answer 9

Of those 3, without seeing paint chips, I would go with the plum blossom, it sounds pink/purple? Those are relaxing colors and can calm and sooth you.

Answer 10

Be decisive. Make your own choice. You have to live with it.

anything plum/lavender is not the best for a bedroom (personal experience), as it tends to give your sin tone a 'sallow' look.

Orange will be very high-energy.

Answer 11

Yellow but just a light light yellow. If you get it even a little too pronounced it will ruin your room and you will always hate it.
