BEDDING FOR GUEST ROOM
I purchased this bedding on Monday for one of our bedrooms. What color should I paint the walls? I want this room to have a bit of Shabby Chic feel to it. Can you recoomend some paint colors for the walls that would compliment this bedding and the look I am going for? TIA! Image Attachment(s):

Re: BEDDING FOR GUEST ROOM
I purchased the same set for when we move my dd into her big girl room! I'm actually using some of the pieces from the set in her room right now as well. 
I would do either a nice ivory/bone white color on the walls (def not stark white though) or a nice pale/washed out pink color.
DD's room is ivory..I like how the decor on her walls stand out against the wall color.

Thanks!! This is what my Dh and my friend mentioned to me as well. I love this collection.
In December I purchased the shower curtain and the guest towels for the bathroom. It is the same style as the bedding. I love it.

Have fun decorating. The great part of the shabby chic part is buying stuff to accessorize the room! they have so much stuff out there!
I also have the bathroom stuff too! I got the hand towels and tassels and I got the soap dispenser and I made out like a bandit on ebay and Marshalls
be sure to post pics I'm sure it'll look divine!

I am a Shabby Chic fanatic! I know exatly how I want to accessorize. I also have a nice lamp that looks very Shabby Chic to go into the room as well.
Thanks for your help.

Re: BEDDING FOR GUEST ROOM
If your DH would go for it, I think a really really light pink would look pretty.

I thought pale pink, too, immediately when I saw the bedding.
If you plan to put a lot of colorful things on the walls, I like the suggestion of an ivory color.

Re: BEDDING FOR GUEST ROOM
I would go a pale, almost white, blue. The pink would look nice too...but I'm not a pink person. The blue is cool and definitely reminds me of shabby chic.

i think a green would like nice with that.
Ditto...I would pull out the green of the leaves more by putting a nice sage or celery on the walls.
