Need help with Paint

I don't know what color to paint the baby's room. Here is the bedding I already bought.

I would go with the medium blue (where the red and white stars are) and then maybe do a wall with the same stars.

I would do bootom half wainscotting in white and top half some shade of medium blue but definately some white to break up too much blue.

LOL... same here... but we did yellow on top..... I like the blue top with the white wasincotting..... or you could do chair rail and do the bottom in a beige or off white....

The room will have white moulding on top and bottom. We also got custom radiator covers done which will also be white. So there will be some white to break up the color. The pics are in my album.

I think a light yellow on top with white on the bottom would look nice.

Re: Need help with Paint

I think any shade of blue will be too much blue....unless, you intend on bringing another major color in, maybe like a pale yellow in your decorative items on the walls. I think a yellow that matches (but is much lighter) than the baseball bats on the bedding would be nice.

Wainscotting would be beautiful...but expensive! If you can do it, I'd do white wainscotting with a beige or ecru color on top, and I'd get wooden shelves to match the baby furniture and put decorative items on them to bring in another color or two.

Thanks but I dont think we will be doing Wainscotting since we are already spending $$$ on repairing the room and our room. Take a look at the before they were horrible!

I'd do a light blue or yellow; I'm leaning toward yellow.

I would lean towards a light smokey blue (grays in it)

I love the idea of the red and white stars!

Re: Need help with Paint

I'd prob. do a yellow. Although, white or beige would be great, I can just never bring myself to not paint a color, LOL!

Blue may be too much blue. I have the same dilema for our son's nursery. Post pics once you chooseChat Icon
