LaJean Dowty on Feb 08, 2014I think the blue and gold would look great, as long as you do something to tie the colors together with your bedding...and add a small touch of black with accessoriesHelpful Reply

A.E. Zaring on Feb 08, 2014I agree with LaJean on painting the bedroom blue~as long as the blue isn't too dark. for the bedspread I would try to find one in multi colors of blue, white, black, gold and maybe even a little red~ check online for multi colored bedspreads and see if you can't find one that would please you and a store you can purchase it at~Helpful Reply

Alice on Feb 08, 2014Thanks, the blue paint is a very light blue and I do have a yellow/gold quilt with all the colors you mentioned!!! I also have a red/maroon throw for the bed too. The gold drapes have a hint of maroon in them. I'm excited about starting our bedroom project after your help. Thanks again.Helpful Reply

Alice on Feb 11, 2014Thank you so much for the info. I'll have to find a Steinmart near me. It's hard finding bedding in Wal-Mart or K-Mart.Helpful Reply

Ashley@Biggerthanthethreeofus on Feb 13, 2014I think it depends on what else is in the room. Do you have a rug, duvet cover or chair that can tie the two colors together?Helpful Reply

Alice on Feb 13, 2014Actually, I don't. Our furniture is dark, we do have a tan down comforter we used at times. And our carpeting is a charcoal grey.Helpful Reply

Terra Gazelle on Mar 04, 2015Light blue and gold remind me of French design... you can use some distressed furniture...I think it would be beautiful and relaxing.Helpful Reply
