Which color carpet goes best with this paint?

8 years ago

I don't know whether to get Red or Cream carpet to go with this paint. Will red carpet look old fashioned and cheap in my bedroom? Does cream carpet even go with this paint?

Behr offers compatible colors on their website, here are the ones for yours (scroll down): http://www.behr.com/consumer/ColorDetailView/T15-18

But no, I wouldn't personally do red.

Pick a cream carpet. Red with green is a Christmas story that you may get tired of soon!

What colour carpet?

If you have a Lowe's nearby, take a look at the Pergo Driftwood Pine Laminate Flooring (top photos.) Even though it has a rustic, beach house feel, I love the color. It's a silvery/white/taupe (for lack of a better description) and that would be striking with your wall color, white bedding and black/brown bed. My other suggestion would be Brazilian Teak, (bottom photos) which is beautiful. It really depends on what makes you feel good and what you love living in! Christi for ThosBaker

Since I posted this, I think we came with a plan! We thought that bringing the carpet up to the landing would not work. Why? Mainly safety. When you are walking up and there is a little bit of carpet you are standing on, it could have a little give on it, but also for walking down too. Then the bridge piece wold be in an unexpected place and people would more than likely trip! I found some "nosing" in some sites online and some looked nice, but were chunky. We said no, to those as you do not want something chunky sticking out at the top of the stairs! We are going to get a silver/chrome metal nosing to finish it off, which will be neater and we have chrome hardware on the doors throughout the house now. the carpet just was laid, unfortunately the fitter did not have the nosing we wanted, but its on the way. I will post a pic when it is done so you can see. Here is it, unfinished, at the moment, but so far no tripping!

This is what I've been considering for flooring. I love parquet but am worried the pattern will make the house look smaller. I prefer warm tones. The paint colour is Shermin Williams Alpaca if that helps.

Cream will go well and will be a much better choice, so that you won't be stuck always trying to decorate around red. Also, see below...this room with a red carpet would be a bit overwhelming I think.
