Design Drama!

Okay...so here it is: I found this comforter set for WAY less...I mean like almost 70% off...and I have NO business getting but I have it...so moving on..

I have not been loving my bedroom since we moved in this house, but being 8 months preggo and on bed rest, I wasn't exactly in the "decorating" mood. I always thought I would have so much time during the 8 weeks of maternity leave...HA HA HA!!!!

So...18 months later...here I am with a new comforter set and blank khaki walls. I want YOUR advice on what color to paint the walls. My first instinct is to paint the walls a chocolate brown since the comforter is so light. I don't want it to be a dungeon...but really we are only in their to sleep.

What are your thoughts, comments, suggestions?

Match the lighter brown/gray color (its hard to tell in that picture). I would totally go orange but I'm weird like that. Have you thought about curtains? Maybe buy those first and then pick a paint color.

I love the comforter fabric. I would go with the dark brown if you have a lot of window. The trim and light will make it seem not so heavy.

I agree with Casey, totally go orange, but I do have a lime green kitchen!

We had an orange kitchen in our first house, the name was pumpkin. I LOVED it!

I had an orange guest bedroom in our first house, but don't know if I could have slept in there all the time. How about a chair rail with chocolate brown on the bottom & orange or blue on the top?
