Answer 1

The bed spread is dark, and has a lot of pinks. So I would definately not go with a pink(maroon, burgindy, reds, purples, etc.) I would take that light sandy color thats on your spread, make it a tiny, tiny bit more red and put that on bottom of the wall and take the direct shade or two lighter from the original sangy brown and paint the top. See the picture of the walls you liked. The bed is very light, and the walls are dark. and the blue on the walls is a about two shades lighter then the pillows. But if you have a dark bed and dark walls, or a light bed and light walls, then it won't look good. Hope I helped!!

Answer 2

On your bedspread there is a light sandy color for the top and then choose one of those other colors for the bottom 3/4 of your wall.  I prefer the dark pumpkin looking color but you may like the red or orange.  The lighter color at the top gives a more open feeling.  Great idea the two toned look.  I would love to know what you end up choosing!

Answer 3

Maybe a light red on the walls and on the top a LITE yellow.
