Sort of grass + sky but not on the nose. Then I think if you did some framed artwork that is outdoorsy, it would be really cute! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-playroom#post-2636143 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 10:43:20 +0000 snowjewelz 2636143@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'd do like a light light beige and make it nature/jungle/garden/zoo theme! Embrace the green carpet! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-playroom#post-2636008 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 07:44:38 +0000 looch 2636008@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would embrace it, the more you try to hide it the more you will see it.</p> <p>I would paint the bottom half of the room a green that coordinates, in a pattern of hills, with a blue sky on the top 2/3 of the walls, extending into the ceiling. I'd have fun with it. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-playroom#post-2636005 Thu, 13 Oct 2016 07:38:10 +0000 peachykeen 2636005@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaG: I was thinking along the lines of this too :happy: </p> <p>If you do a really pale blue it almost works as a neutral anyway. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-playroom#post-2635899 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 20:50:50 +0000 MamaG 2635899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>My first thought was a blue. Carpet could resemble grass and the walls sky blue. I like the suggestion for painting flowers. Like a garden. Or a picket fence. </p> <p>Or go neutral. 😋 </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-playroom#post-2635868 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 19:35:03 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2635868@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: what about jsut a shade or two darker than the hallway? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-playroom#post-2635856 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 19:17:13 +0000 catgirl 2635856@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Foodnerd81: I wouldn't find it boring, I think it would be nice to continue the color... but I recognize other people like more color. You could look for a wall decal? Or a really large piece of art? </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-playroom#post-2635854 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 19:12:13 +0000 Foodnerd81 2635854@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@catgirl: That's true about all the colors. We are already planning to do the hallway and foyer in a light greige (Edgecomb gray) so would it be super boring to have that in there too? I think I want it a little different... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-playroom#post-2635852 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 19:09:56 +0000 JennyPenny 2635852@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>You could paint the walls mostly neutral and then paint some fun flowers or maybe even grass (in a lighter but complementary shade of green maybe) along the bottom edge. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-playroom#post-2635848 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 19:07:54 +0000 catgirl 2635848@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I would do white or a light greige. I think a playroom, just by nature of what it is, will have tons of colors going on. A neutral wall won't compete with everything else. you can always use art on the walls for more fun and color in small doses. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-playroom#post-2635847 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 19:06:49 +0000 Foodnerd81 2635847@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@T.H.O.U.: yeah almost forest green I think. It's weird- I kind of can't really describe exactly what color- maybe it's faded hunter green. </p> <p>Yeah probably neutrals. But I wanted it to be fun and maybe girly. But not fun like 90s sports wall paper. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-playroom#post-2635841 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 19:01:01 +0000 T.H.O.U. 2635841@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Dark green like a forest green? </p> <p>I would just go neutral and maybe do decals to make it fun. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/what-color-playroom#post-2635838 Wed, 12 Oct 2016 18:59:17 +0000 Foodnerd81 2635838@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm stumped. What color would you paint a playroom with a dark green carpet? The carpet will go at some point and DH wants to put in wood floors, but that's a ways away and I figure we could repaint before doing the floors if we wanted to change the color then. So dark green carpet, playroom for two girls. I want it to be fun and playful but not clash with the carpet. We have a big white bookcase/ storage thing that will go in the room. </p> <p>Totally super important question. :) First we have to remove the sports wallpaper border- gorgeous early 90's at it's finest. </p>
