Will a blue-grey go with ecru, antique rose and sage green?

I have an ecru eyelet lace bedspread, and antique rose drapes. I want to add accents of sage green, and a blue-grey. Will this be too many colors? If not, can I paint the walls blue-grey? Or would the sage green be better on the walls, with the blue-grey used as throw pillows on the bed?

Go with the sage green. I am really a shabby chic decorater, and I have found that slate blue looks great for accents, but it is overall too depressing for walls. I painted my walls a colour called "sage green tea". I also have rose drapery, and a very nice handmade quilt with blues, greens, etc. Stick with the slate blue for accents, and it will make the room feel not too "frilly" and "girly". Another plus about the green is that light bounces easier off light colours, so it will make the space seem brighter and cleaner.
Reply:I would go with sage on the walls. I just painted over a room that was blue gray because it was SO DEPRESSING!!! Use it as an accent, but I don't receommend it for the walls.
Reply:Skip the blue-grey. The sage and rose will look good together, and the ecru will lighten the room and give the eye a place to rest. Sage on the walls, definitely. You can add more colors, but you need to vary the depth of color. Blue-grey, sage, and antique rose are all very similar DEPTH. To determine depth, get a piece of clear red plastic and put the colors side by side. Cover with the red plastic - you'll see that they all look pretty much the same.


Go with another color that is either much lighter or much darker. A dark plum would look good - contrasts with the green, compliments the rose. Try to find a print fabric that incorporate several of the colors - use in a pillow or curtains.
