I need help choosing a color for my bed spread and drapes!
My room is dark gray and has a purple accent wall. Also, my bedroom furniture is black. Please help me choose a bedspread and color of drapes. It would be great if pictures of examples are posted :-) THANK YOU!

Looks like I can no longer post pictures from websites.
Look up Lawrence bedding -- Lavender Dreams.
This is a perfect comforter for your needs.
I know -- I own it and my MB colors are the same as yours.

Natural green for your bedspread. and for drapes you can choose dark green.. Based on Eco-friendly theme..

sorry I don't owned photos of bedspreades

Be careful not to make the room too dark with dark drapes.

Although it's difficult for me, personally, to select/suggest specific colors from photos - Elaine, you might receive more/better suggestions, if you posted photos.

I'd be happy to weigh in with general thoughts, if I had any, after reviewing your photos. Even better, if you had a few ideas and included some actual paint shades with your photos, then I could possibly help out.

To select some shades, I would take all of my fabrics and previous paint chips to the paint store and make some initial, tentative selections.

JMHO.

Good Luck!

P.S. Not that I disagree with anything posted above, BTW. It's all good.
