Question

i'm going to have these walls (you have to go down till you see the grey walls with polka dots) : http://teensthemes.com/polka-dots/circles-dots-polka-dots-decorating-ideas.html

so now i need one other color in my room, i was thinking of chartreuse green. i was going to hang chartreuse green paper lanterns in my room, the circle kind: http://www.lunabazaar.com/index.asp?PageAction=VIEWCATS&Category=325

but anyway... my question is, do you have any other color or decorating suggestions?

Answer 1

The green would look great. I would eventually add some more green decorations to the room... a vase (you can always spray paint furniture to match the colors of your room), some picture frames...

you could even consider painting a couple of polka dots of that color randomly on the wall.. like a total of 3 to 5 in random order all over the room.

Answer 2

You are going to have a very sophisticated room!!. I would add touches of a pale turquoise in decorative items. It looks good with chartreuse. I love the idea of the round paper lanterns, too. You could get either solid chartreuse or pale aqua/turquoise curtains and hang them from those chunky round white curtain rings. That would tie in with the circle motif.

You could also get a large round ceramic pot in shiny white or aqua and have a chartreuse colored leafy plant in one corner of the room. Or, just get a plain white cylinder vase in a huge size and put some really tall green bamboo stalks in it. They sell them at craft stores and I saw them at Walmart, too. That would be very chic!! : )

Answer 3

I think it will be a very cool room.  Any of the bright 'candy' colors will work: blue, pink, orange.  But especially since the sheet set has green in it I would stick with the green.  Later you could even use darker, more muted variations of these colors to calm the room down a bit, for instance in the fall and winter.
