I have just painted a small room pink rose. it has white trim and a brown floor. the bed is rather large and..

Question

it will basically take up most of the room. what color should the comforter/sheets be? will a soft pink be too much? what would you suggest?

Answer 1

How about white? Something lighter, maybe not pink.

Answer 2

I would do white or a soft cream color. I wouldn't do soft pink for the sheets. I think it would be too much. The lighter the accessories, the bigger the room will seem. Also if the room has a window, maybe just do a scarf on a decorative rod with a nice mini blind that can be kept open when the room is not in use.

Answer 3

If you use light colors on the bed it will only appear larger! (otherwise I would have said white)

Think in terms of pink roses with green stems. Try deep green or pale green sheets and a floral spread/comforter. add a couple of striped throw pillows and a bolster (long round tube) pillow in solid green. Then add soft green and white accessories - like a white lamp on the bedside table, with green candles, a landscape print with pink flowers blooming. Add a large mirror to make the space look larger.

Hope this helps!

Answer 4

In general, lighter-colored items look larger than darker ones. But having said that, I think the comforter, shams and curtains would look pretty in a white background with the same shade of pink flowers on them as the walls. Curtains could also be plain white. Try to match sheets, throw pillows and bed skirt to the wall color.

Sounds pretty so far!

Answer 5

Suggest a small print, with white or ivory, pink, and perhaps a third color. Add pillows the same print, and curtains or drapes as well.
Don't worry so much about sheets - they will be under the spread or comforter!

Answer 6

I would pick up a contrasting color such as a print or floral which could have light pink but that also has some green in it. You need some thing to pop with the pink rose color.

Answer 8

I would go for white with pink accents. This will pick up the room pink without making it overwhelming.

Answer 9

I would go with a pink/brown combo on the bed although I love pink so I wouldn't think it was too much.

Answer 10

i'd go with white cuz ther would b too much pink if u made the bed sheet pink
