Paint color Help!
I ordered this duvet and now we need to have the bedroom painted by Thursday b/c we leave for Chicago on Fri for a wedding and our wood floors go in on Monday. I've been looking around for a color for a few weeks but I'm just not sure if I want to go light, dark or what. I need some help! Thanks.

Yeah I think you're right, I'm going to go with something light. Anyone have any light colored paint ideas that would go?

Re: Paint color Help!
I would go with a light beige also. I have BM Carlisle Cream in my Kitchen, DR & LR (open space) and I have dark furniture. Check out my albums for pics.
But I also just used Valspar Swoosh, but I used BM Nature paint. BM color matches. Valspar has great colors to choice from.
And here is my Bedroom with dark furniture and light bedding. We used BM Brittany Blue. But you have more options with a beige color.

Re: Paint color Help!
I am a big fan of color so I'd do a light blue. A pale sky blue.
Whatever you choose - I'd stay in the light color family.
Man I love this bedding!!!

I would go with something nuetral like a dark tan or a very light brown --which is probably the same thing! lol we have a duvet set very similar in color and we painted our room almond which has like a gold undertone to it

Re: Paint color Help! UPDATE and pic at bottom
Thanks for the suggestions everyone! I ended up going with BM Carrington beige. I wasn't sure I loved it when we first painted but they started to put the wood floor down today and I love it against the floor.
The duvet is from Pottery Barn. Image Attachment(s):
