What colour should i paint my walls?

  • i recently bought blue curtains and my mom got me a (not so pretty) rug, it has earthy tones of blue, brown, and green...right now my walls are boring and white... i really want to paint them, but i dont know what colour would look good with my curtians... any advice would be greatly appreciated..thanks!


  • I like rooms best when the curtains match the wall color (or a shade darker or lighter). This gives the wall a seamless look and feels more open, not as choppy looking. So, paint your walls the same shade as your curtains. If you don't like that idea then a warm sandy shade would work too; you'll be surprised how much different your room "feels" just going from white to beige.


  • Any color that's going to please you.


  • tape the walls half wat across then paint half blue the other half brown then remove tape you have a even line and now it is beautiful


  • You might try a contrast such as a beige or oatmeal that is similar to the brown in the rug to tie it all together.


  • It sounds like a beige or bone white would pull your colors together and look bright but not too bright like plain white. It adds a little warmth too. I painted mine a bone white color and like it very well.


  • Light blue would be the best option here. I love colour coding


  • play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to help you imagine how the colors will look together. It is the best paint visualizer on the web, imho. I like how their color palette is laid out, I like that you can search by color family & color name, the "painted" rooms look the most realistic, and it suggests coordinating color schemes. You can literally spend hours:

    I think "aquacade" (# 7130) might be a great choice.

    You can take a photo of your house & upload it to the makeover gallery on this website:

    You can get color suggestions & for $5 they'll photoshop them onto your room so that you can get an idea of what it will look like.
