(the blue wall also has a door that leads to the back yard! so there will be light coming in it wont be too dark!) the ONLY full bath will be done in ducks! lol not overboard i just have a cute porcelain duck that came with flowers in it but i want to put a large candle in it! and if you cant tell i like blue so i think were gonna do the walls a pond blue with maybe some sponge paining! and sage green towels and accessories! but the master i DO NOT WANT BLUE PURPLE PINK OR RED im undecided about yellow ! my dresser and bedroom furniture is is almost a honey colored with gold draw pulls! but i love the thought of dark colors in their soo i could stain it but i dont want to! what do yall think any great ideas out there?

8. Hi, Colors are powerful tools and make the surface attractive .It has different meanings which influences our actions.

9. Yay! Congrats on the new home! I say you do the master in Sage Green and Chocolate Brown. You can do little accents of Lavender or Soft Yellow / Buttercream, even just Cream. A couple different combos that would be nice [though there are a ton more with these colors] would be Chocolate Brown walls with Sage Green or Lavender Trim. Or vice versa, depending if you want it darker or brighter. I also think the Butter Cream would look great with Brown or Green Trim and accents. Besides the fact that Green and Brown look great together, they go with a lot of colors. Also, they are more muted, which is nice and relaxing with the bedroom. Have fun! I'm sure you are super excited. I can't wait until I get my own place so that I can do the same!
10. Yellow is nice but not with the honey colored furniture. If you don't want blue, purple, pink or red, I guess that leaves green. How about one of these shades? http://www.apartmenttherapy.com/uimages/chicago/9-16-08green4.jpg http://img.hgtv.com/HGTV/2008/02/27/rms-thomgirl-green-bedroom_w609.jpg http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_uf7HuvpnfKk/SNh16MmH-BI/AAAAAAAAA1o/pn4hDSmXRSo/s400/green+brown+blue+bedroom.jpg
11. play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to help you imagine how the colors will look together. It is the best paint visualizer on the web, imho. I like how their color palette is laid out, I like that you can search by color family & color name, the "painted" rooms look the most realistic, and it suggests coordinating color schemes. You can literally spend hours: http://www.sherwin.com/visualizer/ I think "cargo pants" (# 7738) might be a good choice. You can take a photo of your house & upload it to the makeover gallery on this website: http://www.roomvues.com/ You can get color suggestions & for $5 they'll photoshop them onto your room so that you can get an idea of what it will look like.
