I have a dark teal rug. What color should i paint my room?
Many decorating dilemmas are caused by horribly colored carpet. Retro colors such as pink, teal, green, blue, or orange were prominent in the 70's and 80's. If you see them in homes now, they look like a nightmare come to life!The only solution to having some sort of order to a room with dark teal carpet is to cover as much as you can. A luxurious shag area rug such as the Chocolate Flokati would cover up a dark teal rug well, and provide you with a soft spot to put to place your feet every morning.
When accessorizing with your new colors, avoid anything that would bring your focus to the dark teal rug. Choose warm brown candles, lighter toned bedding (blues, greens, white), and throw pillows in a mix of the two. Buying any teal accessories will only draw your eye to the carpet, and you are doing your best to pretend it's not even there.
