I just bought new curtains not too long ago that are burgandy and would like some nuetrals but not sure how it will go with the blue carpet if I do the walls.What do you suggest?

They unfortuantly have dark blue plush carpet (which they love) but it is pretty dull due to the white walls. They need major help. It is a pretty small room so I am thinking painting the walls to dark would make it appear even smaller. They have a cream colored sofa and medium oak end tables (all new so they can't replace them). They need a paint color to give the room a design to it or not make it so boring! They are sick of having white walls all over. HELP! Hi Julia,

I do know that dark blue goes with a tropical shade of yellow to give it that island taste! Other than that I guess we all have to consult with Martha Stewart! :) -Samantha Blue is more of a dark shade so its more likely to go with other dark colors but then again it all depends on how you want to symphonize your room.
