Re: Brown and Blue Combo colors...

I did a spin off of this. Our walls are a light, creamy gold color. We painted one wall in the living room a silvery blue. I'm using accents to throw in some chocolate (dec pillow, area rug, etc).

So, my wall colors aren't too trendy, but I bought some other "low ticket items" to make it pop.

Re: Brown and Blue Combo colors...

I do like it alot ...and it is pretty trendy right now. I just designed a quilt for my guild's block of the month - it was all blue/chocolate Amy Butler fabrics, it was a huge hit, we sold all of the blocks (turquois/green/pink - is also a popular combo right now)

But the way I see it, changing paint color is a pretty inexpensive decorating option, that can make a big impact. So I keep my furniture neutral but can still change the look of a room with paint and curtains or bed linens Chat Icon

Re: Brown and Blue Combo colors...

we did our basement family room in Brown with blue 4 years ago, I love it but I'm glad I painted the walls beige & brown & the furniture is chocolate because I'm ready for a change so I'm switching the accents which were blue(pillows, vase & other stuff) to green.

Re: Brown and Blue Combo colors...

Our MBR is Brown & Blue. The walls are a light slate blue and our furniture is dark cherry. I love the color combo. It might be trendy right now, but I still love the colors. Very calming for the bedroom. I will also do my den in slate blue and cream once we are ready to remodel.

This is an older pic. I have a darker slate blue drape with brown sheers underneath.

i think it's popular, but not necessarily trendy in a negative way. blue walls are pretty classic.
