Question Posted Tuesday February 20 2007, 11:10 pm
Okay, so I want to paint my room because I've had bright green and I'm getting sick of it. I want to paint my room a lighter color and I guess more "mature" looking. At first I wanted to paint it purple and have a theme of purple black and white but now I'm thinking I should paint it a light brown color. Any opinions? I'll take any, and I won't rate you low if you say something I don't want. Thanks!

If you want a more mature look but a funky look at the same time, have a theme wall!
I love theme walls.
Why don't you paint one wall a deep purple or like a burgundy colour and the other 3 walls a bone colour, the bone colour is like a creamy colour.
In my uncle's lounge room he has a deep dark red wall with 3 bone colour walls and it looks great, he's into the more egyption style.
Once you have a theme wall you can change things to match it and have your quilt covers a similar colour as the theme wall, it brings out the colours.
Also the lighter colour walls make your room look larger!
sugarplum07 answered Wednesday February 21 2007, 1:44 pm: Honestly, a light purple and brown would look AWESOME together. Paint your walls a nice lilac-looking color and get brown accents (like lamps and pillows). The brown will say that you are mature and sophisticated, but the purple will show a softer, girly side of you. [ sugarplum07's advice column | Ask sugarplum07 A Question ]
