Answer 1

Hello, as co-owner of http://www.decorating-kids-rooms.net I get a lot of questions re: colors to paint a room - it has been my experience that yes, you should go with colors you like but to be selective with how dark you go. I would recommend going lighter instead of darker on your walls especially if your bedroom is small and not very well lit.

That said, you don't have to go really pale either. What about one dark pink or dark purple wall and then paint the rest of your walls in a lighter shade of either pink or purple? You can then bring in more dark shades of pink and purple through the use of carefully selected fabrics and accessories like a comforter, window treatments, throw cushions, lampshades, area rugs etc.

Hot pink and vibrant violet also go nice with bold orange and bright yellow. What about a room with a retro 'flower power' motif?

Answer 2

You will need some kind of light color, since your room isn't well lit. But that doesn't mean you can't use the darker purples and pinks too.

You could try an off-white to make your wood pop, and add purple and pink accents- either on the wall, or as decorations. If you don't like the off-white for whatever reason, try sage green.

Answer 3

A lighter shade will brighten up your room. Pale yellow on 3 walls and then maybe the dark purple on the wall behind your bed might work out well.
