^^ sheets

and i have a plain white down comforter

should i paint my walls yellow or pink? and if pink, then which shade? and keep in mind that the curtains are dark pink..so would pink walls behind pink curtains look stupid?

Answer 1

Yellow would be your best bet. It still depends on what kind of yellow though. Pink walls wouldn't make the pink curtains look "stupid" but it wouldn't show them off very well. Yellow or a pale yellow would work great.

Answer 2

How about...

Paint the wall behind your bed as a feature wall in the matching hot pink of the curtains.
Then a soft, pale green to match the sheets for the other 3 walls. (White ceiling, window sills, door).

Use the white comforter on the bed.

Introduce a stronger & brighter green (in the same palette as the sheets) for accessories ie cushions, bedside lamp, picture frames (paint them).

Then, anything else in the room keep to white ie a throw over a chair or at the end of the bed, floor rug etc....

This would give you a nice fresh look & still use what you already have. It won't be boring without going over the top. These colours should tie the room together.

Answer 3

I would go with apple green or a fern or spring green. Definitely not pink (or any pastel) as a pale pink would be too wussy with the intense pink curtains and the snazzy sheets. You could find that pink and apple green in pillows for the bed to tie it all together.

Answer 4

1] paint walls yellow, and add green in rug, chair
2] paint walls green of the bedding and add yellow in rug, chair
3] add throw pillows in the green, the bright pink, and the yellow for the bed, chair [ or make pillow covers out of bedding pillowslips ]
4] add a plant or potted flower
5] use candles in room colors
6] make collages of family, friends, and photos of groups [ vacations, swim team, etc. ] on light pink, yellow, or green backgrounds [ or some of each ]. Frame all in chrome or silver, so you can move them around.

Answer 5

Yellow is a more neutral color. Either that or the green that is in the design. You could do a lighter pink if you wanted to though.

Answer 6

i have to ideas one is to paint each wall a diffrent color like one wall pink the other orange one green and one yellow. Or you do multi stripes of skinny and thick line with green yellow orange and pink.

Hope this helps

Answer 7

A very light olive green or citrus green would highlight the curtains, sheets and the white comforter. May be it will give a cool summer look to your room.

Answer 8

I would paint one entire wall red and the others white or cream, it's called an "accent wall". Then I would add maybe a red upholstered chair (alond one of the neutral walls) and smaller red-themed decorations throughout the room (artwork, etc).

Answer 9

How about mixing the colours top half pink
bottom half yellow

But get two shades that go together

Good luck

Yellow makes the brain active

Answer 10

i would paint it all like a royal purple to bring it all out... dont jus paint everything the same color..... i dont think it would look right...... if u dont like that idea then i would do like an yellow or orange color.... or like a orange on top and pink on bottom .... half and half... ill give u a link to show u what i am talking about... but i still think purple would be best to bring everything out and it still color cordinates with all the colors that u have in ur sheets plus ur curtains.... that or use like a light green color.... use like lil pillows and stuff to decorate to bring out all of the colors...
