Re: Need decorating help...

A pale yellow might be nice bc it will make the border pop a little more. Depending on the shade of purple the border might blend in too much.

We might be doing a wood floor...

if I do the purple wall and purple border, the wall will be very light purple, lighter than the border...

I think yellow would be better - it'll make the purple stand out more.

Re: Need decorating help...

Even though purple is my FAVORITE color and I'd always chose that over anything....

I aggree that the yellow might make the border "pop" more since there is a lot of purple in the border already.

Have you even thought about a light sage green for the walls? Green and purple go very well together.

I think the pale yellow will give the room a warmer feeling to it.

yellow would be nice, but I honestly think sage green would look awsome! That border is adorable, and sage would really compliment the leaves from the flowers. JMO though. Yellow would look pretty too

I say yellow but I heard yellow isn't a pleasing color and should never be used for a room where people sleep unless it is a guest room... hence your guests won't stay too long..

But I think the right shade of yellow or yellow/purple would be great!
