    You can tone it down a bit by going with an analogous scheme of buttery yellows, soft dreamsicle orange and a softer pink. Or you can embrace it and add lots of lime green, tangerine orange, and other citrus colors. White and black bring a certain sophistication to all of the above.

    If the bed is a very vibrant pink, maybe a pretty scheme would be a toned down, very soft lime green on the walls, using the hot pink as an accent. I wonder if too many vibrant colors in the room would make it too exciting for a bedroom. I like bedrooms that are peaceful (not boring), but with some brighter accents that are easy to change if the mood strikes. I like the light buttery yellow idea, too. You could add some catchy lime green to that scheme, like a lamp or a picture with pink, yellow and green.

    Ooh, this could be really pretty!

    Every country magazine (country living, country home, better homes and gardens) have had covers with bright pinks, light pinks, and apple green. I think those are nice colors together. Not neon lime green, but a nice granny smith apple green. I also like black and white with pink.
