I'm sixteen years old. My room right now is yellow and it has flower stickers on the walls. My bed spread is hot pink and on the reverse side its limegreen i pretty much don't know what color i should stick to while painting my room i just know i want a change in the color. I'm not sure if i should do limegreen b/c my desk is limegreen. and i'm not sure if i should do hot pink since my bed is hot pink. I don't want it to look to "busy" if you know what i mean..

ANY HELP HERE

  1. You can paint vertical stripes on your walls, using two colors maybe using a hot pink and lime green, or maybe a hot pink with a lighter pink..

    maybe like this? ........

  2. Not a decorator here but I sure see a lot of chocolate brown with both pink (bedding) and lime (desk).  It'd be daring to have chocolate brown walls, but what an impact!  Then you could put some funky and very much in style stickers back on the wall.  If ya get afraid to do all four walls, do just one and the others white or pale shades of either the bedding or the desk.  Yummy!

  3. play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to find something that you like. 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:

    I think a pale purple like "Wallflower" (# 6281) would actually be your best choice. It would *highlight* the hot pink and the lime green, rather than totally matching & causing them to blend in.  Check it out.

    You can also take a photo of your house & upload it to the makeover gallery on this website:

    You can get color suggestions & they'll photoshop them onto your room so that you can get an idea of what it will look like.
