Answer 1

Choose for yourself using the Benni-Moore interactive color viewer which you can click on once you go here http://www.coloradofauxpainting.com/fauxpaintingcolor.html
This tool allows you to pick the type of room you are painting and then plug in colors and change the walls to see which ones go together.

Answer 2

I would use a very light, translucent shade of pink. If your ceiling is too dark the room will feel closed in. Sherwin Williams carries a line of paints called Luminescence which are pastels with lots of light in them. Very sheer, not cloudy. They should have a shade of pink you like.

Answer 3

White, cream, pale yellow, tan, off white. You don't want anything dark as this will make your ceiling appear to be lower. You could even go with a very pale shade of rose or pink. Hope this helps.

Answer 4

Silver, gray, tan or rose would be my immediate responses.
Also, consider if the right shade of green or yellow would be interesting.
The staff of a store that only sells paint can be very helpful in advising you on complementary colors.
