Paint color

So I want to do a beach theme in our spare bedroom.  I have a ton of photos of sunsets on the beach from when I lived in FL and I am going to frame them and hang them on the wall.  I also have shells and sand dollars that I am going to put in a shadow box and hang up.  We bought a blue bead spread for the bed, but now I am stuck on the paint color.  Should I go for an ocean blue or a more sandy color?  What do you think?

Re: Paint color

  • I would go with the sandy color and then do blue accent pieces.....just because I think it would be easier to find blue accent pieces over sandy colored ones!
  • with a blue bed spread, I'd go with sandy/khaki too.  you could do like a grass color - similar to what is planted along the ocean... like a muted sage or something??  and then do khaki and blue accents :) HTH!

  • I was thinking ocean blue first, but as I read the rest of your post.. I say go with the sandy color or as the other poster suggested.. with the sage green.
