I'm 14 years old and it's going to be farm and country themed. At first I wanted to paint it River Valley which is like a gray(grey(not sure which way it's spelled) but with a tint of blue. But now I'm having second thought on that color. I'm not going for anything outrageous like barn red, but any suggestions of colors or good ideas I can do to go along with my room( like farm, barn, country, farm animal) it would be appreciated!! Thanx!

Well how about like half the room (like from the floor to half up the wall), paint it like straw grass like in a field and maybe a tractor plowing crops. Have like a red barn next to a farmhouse and a windmill. Have horses like running free. Flowers are good too. Maybe somewhere on the wall have like a river flowing or a pond with kids jumping in (trees covering around the pond). The other half (halfway towards the celing) paint it like a pretty blue sky with just some white clouds. Or maybe have a sunset along the river (or pond), with orange over the water and like a dark blue while stars are just starting to shine as the sun sets.

I painted the bttm. 1/2 the blue... hand painted sunflowers as a border & checked the top part w/ off white bkgrd. U use a 2 or 3" roller to make u'r lines down then across. It takes time but it's def. country when u'r done.

By the way, both gray and grey are right. But grey is more commonly used in England.

Since you want a farm theme, you might want greens along with the color you just described. You might even want to use a sandy brown for some of your painting, especially if you're painting a mural.

Good luck!
