Decorating a bedroom..What colors would go with a blue/gray and lilac?

Question

I bought a lilac comforter set, I would like to use a blue hue (not sure what blue). But would like suggestions of other colors to use as well.

so, curtains could be yellow?

Answer 1

sea foam green

Answer 2

as one other said, lilacs are very springey. i like the idea of the periwinkle blue, greens and buttery yellow. dont think i would have the curtains a solid yellow. you could find a fabric with several of the colors in it and drape it over the tops of the windows, then use a light yellow sheer underneath. use the fabric to create a headboard effect, by draping it over the head of your bed, attach with small nails or hooks, and use the solid yellow and the print for toss pillows.
sounds pretty

You need an accent color. use a bright warm color like yellow, red or pink. If you allready have any of this color use that or use paint to change colors. You can paint plastic and wooden items also. As long as you prime or use a plastic paint it will work. Use your imagination. Try looking at a website for paint or decorations and find something that has the colors you are using and see what they are using, it can give you an idea of what you'd like by seeing the colors together first. Have fun.

Very pale lemon with a dark cream carpet this will give a feeling of space and airiness. I have a dark blue suite. I have wallpaper which is a thick cream stripe and a thick pale blue stripe with gold Fleur De Ly's between the stripes and I have a cream carpet. I have a protective mat at the doors so the carpet doesn't get too dirty and a dyson cleaner. I have a cat and a very messy grandson who is always spilling on the carpet but I manage to keep it clean. just wipe the carpet as soon as theres a mark on it and get one thats been scothguarded.
