Pony Room Color ? Need Help!
« on: July 20, 2014, 07:12:28 AM »
We are in the process of getting out basement don't and I am going to be using the fourth bedroom for my ponies. But I am stuck, I don't know what color to paint the walls? I have the curtains already, they were in my daughters room before.

You can see the very lower part of them in the picture below. They are see threw and has white and pink in them.  I don't want to do pink walls though.

And I don't want to do anything super dark either.

Please help me out and if you have a pony room please share with me them. Oh and another thing my curios are all brown, I don't have any white ones.

Go for a soft, ice blue. Very pale, but it keeps the room colder, and reflects light, making it lighter and brighter :) just my two cents!

Well I hate to be boring but I think a cream color would probably look the best......pink and white just go together very well......the only other color I thought of was a really really light pink..but you said no pink so.....

Let us know what you choose :)

This. My room was a color like this, but now it is a very light purple/blue which is just as nice.  ^.^

Snuzzle grey. It's perfect for making white and pink pop!

A pale sky blue will work nice, just make sure theres a touch of 'grey' in it/not too bright or it will feel like you are in an aquarium.

I also agree with a cool medium grey--maybe tinted blue or cream.  You might think grey is a boring colour but when its put on walls it makes everything else fall into place--and it goes well with pink, brown and white.  Just make sure its not pure grey and not too dark.

I was going to say a nice dove gray. The pink looks amazing with it and so will any pony colour!!that gray is really popular right now in particular with baby nurseries and children's rooms (and kitchens, dining, living rooms lol)

pony room you say? Mine is teal. Though lavender/pastel purple seems to be the most common choice.

I think teal might clash with your curtains though. I prefer to go more bright and wild with my colors as opposed to safe and soft.

My spare room was painted sort of a sea-foam green when we moved in and I HATED it. The previous owners had paired it with darker green and red plaid curtains... yuck!  So, once I got my primarily pink pony stuff in, the green looked pretty good and I decided to keep it!  AND previous owners had pink carpet which is what you see in the picture.  Not a fan of the pink carpet and it will change eventually but it looks good with the soft green.

There are some amazing shades of white with just a hint of other colors mixed in. I would say go with something with barely a shade of pink... (I know, I know you said you didn't want pink, but should be quite bright!)

I would recommend any shade of white, as it matches well with anything and will make the room a bit brighter.
