How would you paint and what colour curtains? They don't have them in the bedding fabric.

Answer 1

do the wall that your putting your bed up agaist brown.

then do the other walls a color similair to- but not- sage.

not sure about the curtains.. i'm never good with them!

good luck! : )

Answer 2

Get brown curtains to match the pillows, or do the sage green color.  We can't see your bedroom set picture with the link you gave, but brown curtains might be too dark with dark furniture.  If you got sage green curtains, you could try and get them in a woven fabric or some lighter fabric so they would let light in.  Also, then it wouldn't matter if they didn't match exactly to the comforter, being a different fabric might give you a little bit of variable to work with.

Answer 3

Very nice combo. Your focal wall (the head of the bed) could be either the sage or the brown, depending on your taste. These are earthy colors that could be easily included in a pattern of some sort - floral, geometric, artwork, etc., for your window coverings, more pillows, chair/bench cover, etc. Since there is a brown and black combo, I envision this as a more tailored look with a stripe and/or geometric shapes. You could soften the look with floral arrangements and a touch of floral fabdics, sheer window treatments and soft textures. Keep the other 3 walls a much lighter sage (in the same color family as your other sage color) a real creamy white or pick up on the background color of your fabric choice. Very classy look. Good luck. LT
