what color walls and curtains go good with chocolate colored comforter?

Question

I'm redoing my M.bedroom and bath. I just purchased a new chocolate comforter for my bed. I have oak flooring and a king mahogony 4 poster bed. I'm needing some help on the color in which I should paint the walls and also what color curtains to use. The comforter is different textures velvet, satin, fur with each making a 12 inch stripe down the comforter. The satin has a little gold swirl in it. That is the only color besides the chocolate. In the m.bathroom everything is white except the oak cabinets. Should I paint a chocolate accent wall? Please help?

Answer 1

Find a really helpful site below with a color wheel and multiple ideas for both the curtains and the wall color. I would not paint a chocolate accent wall with all the browns you already have and woods. But you could if that is what you want but I am afraid it will make the room look very dark. But one way of making the room work is doing it with the same color. Take paint samples home to look at them in the light the paint or fabric will be in.

Answer 2

Canary yellow or stripe curtain will be nice. Cobalt blue is also a pretty colour. Use some wall decals to spruce up white walls, easy to install & remove. Important to hang curtain rod a little higher than the window, this will give an impression that the ceiling is high. Coloured ceiling (sky blue) follow same colour to 1 side of wall (where bed is) will also give the same effect. All white walls usually makes room smaller.

Whatever you do, don't leave your walls white!.. :) Chocolate colored comforter can go well with a dark beige wall. I always thought that a light blue color goes really well with a brown comforter. The curtains should match your comforter. If it has any patters, you can always go with the same color of the pattern.
I'd go with the light blue walls, and dark brown curtains. You can always accent the light blue walls with the same chocolate color. that would look awesome..

Answer 4

I would use a cream or light gold color on the walls with gold sheers for the windows. You could do a chocolate accent wall in the bath to bring the color in there.

Answer 5

Deep Burgundy or a Red Wine color walls with Light choclate color curtains. An accent wall in the m. bathroom would be nice, but not necessary - maybe tie the two rooms together with accent towels in the bathroom using the m.bedroom colors.

Answer 6

well i love chocolate in my food and in my decorating LOL. i have a chocolate colored living room and i used white accents.. it looks Divine! in a bedroom i would probably use a mocha/coffee colored paint and white trim, this would also tie the m.bath into the bedroom,you could also get spunky and use texured paint, a suede finish would be fabulous with the multi textured bed cover. use a chocolate colored accent in the bath or maybe go with a deep berry red accents in both rooms. i would use brass finishes and tie backs, hooks.. drawer pulls everything in a brassy or gold tone to really anchor in that great comforter. whatever you do .. keep it simple, you want classic sophistication, not gaudy overpowering touches. black and white photos framed in a wood to match your furniture and a red matte (or gold or white.. which ever color you choose to accent with) a few eye catching pieces of art or photos would be gorgeous.
good luck

Answer 7

That sounds lovely!

You'll want something pale to contrast with the chocolate, but not too pale so it doesn't appear stark. Perhaps a peach for the paint, with trim of a different color. And you might want some throw pillows in gold and perhaps red and other colors. For the curtains, try a darker peach, perhaps with a print on it.

Of course, it all comes down to what rocks your boat. Enjoy your new bed and bath!

Answer 8

the walls would look great with a color called almond paste-olympic paint, found at lowes. i would go for chocolate curtains, and accent, ie:candles and art, with gold and burgundy. dont forget to add accents to bath as well. itll look great.

Answer 9

Chocolate comforter, pale ice blue walls, and a dupioni silver curtain, throw pillows in silver and blue colors to coordinate with the curtains and walls.

Answer 10

I love natural tones. Taupe is a good color maybe with white trim with or with out a white chair rail, especially since the m. bath is white. A nice long window scarf in taupe and one shorter one in chocolate would look great with the white trim.
