Posted by Cotton Duvet Covers on November 28th, 2009 and filed under Pink Duvet Covers | 2 Comments »

im 16.I HAVE DARK BROWN FURNITURE AND floor and i was thinking on painting my a pale pastel pink and geting dark fushia bed sheets. but now. i dont know what to do. i went to target and i saw really cute green sheets with white polka dots. shoud i use those? then maybe i can get a fushia comforter duvet and dark pink sheets and mix it up w/ the green w/ polka dots. would that still look cute? each bed spread set is 50 $ its expensive but u get 2 pillow case, mattres cover and sheets. so i can put 2 pink pillow cases 2 green w/ white dots and pink matress cover and green sheets and dark pink duvet. how can i bring out the light pink into my room again? do polka dots and flowers match? i also bought 2 black and white audrey hephburn posters and im gonna put those into fushia frames. maybe onto the frames i can have an artist paint baby pink flowers and add that green? i also have a chest that an artist will be painting light pink/ dark pink and green flowers on it? will this still match?
what types of accesories can i bring into my room that can make both choices match? lamps, curtains, rugs?i never thogh that i would like the green and pink idea. i do not want to go overboard w/ the gree. i also was thinking of getting chinnese lantern balls. maybe a dark pink small one baby pink and lime green? THANKSS! please give me ideas? links?

Hello! Well, first, if you have dark brown furniture, you should get a light color on the walls… If you want the combination pink/green, you may like these colors:

I´d choose "French Pink" or "Mission Wildflower" or even a lighter version of "Jamaica Green"…

Then, bedding… I really think that pink and green match… and I think that brown furniture goes with almost everything… I think that you should pick a light green color, a light pink and match them with bright pink… Something really nice to put different colors together is to use decorative pillows… So, if you paint your room a light pink, you could choose a light green bedding, light pink sheets, and then get bright pink, light pink and light green decorative pillows…

You can also try patchwork pattren in green/pink, or mix stripes and flowers in green/pink… Check www.pbteen.com, they´re expensive, but they have very nice ideas:

http://www.pbteen.com/products/p2155/index.cfm?pkey=cgrldvs

http://www.pbteen.com/products/p2501/index.cfm?pkey=crawwdp

So, if you get only one color in the walls, you can use more colors in your bedspread… so, if you get tired of the bedspread color combination, just change it… it´s cheaper than repainting the whole room! Also, if you don´t want dark furniture you can paint it white! It´s not difficult, I have already done it once!

    Doesn’t sound like you’re too wild about the green.

    Is your main color deep brown? If so, pink and brown is a good combination. I have always loved brown, cream and turquoise as well.

    Keep in mind if you’re 16, this is probably the design your room will be in….well, forever. I redid my room when I was 16 and my mother never retouched it. So make sure you do pick out something that you will like, and will continue to like when you go home to visit when you’re older.
