Need help picking a wall color!
I realize how clueless I am when it comes to this!
We have a dark wood (cherry color) sleigh bed and matching furniture. Our bedding consists of the Calvin Klein Bamboo Flowers for the winter
a light blue/white quilt for the summer (like a Wedgewood blue)
and a green comforter with flowers for the fall. We want a wall color that will match with all of these. Our floors will be hard wood (possibly a plain cream colored area rug underneath). I also plan to keep the gold accents, although I am not sure about the current pictures. Help me pick a wall color. Originally I thought a goldish color but DH thinks a light green would look nice. Suggestions? Feel free to post as many colors as possible. Thanks!

Re: Need help picking a wall color!
I kinda like it the color you have now considering you'll be changing out your comforter for almost every season. Or I would go with a tan/taupe color like BM's Lenox Tan. Or you could do the green color your husband likes as an accent wall behind your bed.

Thanks! I'll have to look at the Lenox Tan. I don't know what it looks like.
DH really wants the green. I am just not sure.

Re: Need help picking a wall color!
we have BM dunmore cream in our LR (pics in album)
it seems like it would be nice in your room, and give you both the colors you like:
in the daytime, it looks beige-ish with gold undertones and at night, it looks more greenish.
HTH!

Re: Need help picking a wall color!
i realized the pic in my album isn't that good, but check it out in person:
on the BM website it looks lighter than it actually is---
search historical colors, dunmore cream
also, i used AURA paint. great results IMO!

Re: Need help picking a wall color!
I would stick with more of a neutral coloring since you do change your bedding every season.
We have Richmond Bisque in our kitchen & living room. There are pictures in my album. It is on the "neutral" lines but more of a color undertone.

Re: Need help picking a wall color!
