What curtains colour goes with light green carpet and cream coloured walls?

Will be moving into my new apartment and my bedroom has a light green carpet with magnolia (cream) coloured walls. What curtains will go with it?What curtains colour goes with light green carpet and cream coloured walls?
Just about any Earth tone would work unless you really want to add a splash of color. Burgundy could look great depending on the style and color of your bedroom furniture.What curtains colour goes with light green carpet and cream coloured walls?
I have exactly that in the sitting room of my new flat. I can't make curtains so I hired a lady curtain maker and she brought along a lot of sameples.


I chose a striped curtain which are alternate stripes of pale cream and light green. The cream is pretty exact to the walls but the green is slightly lighter than the carpet. The colour combination is fabulous. You may be able to get some ready mades or material if you are handy with a sewing machine in a store like John Lewis which is brilliant for fabrics. Good Luck in you new flat - I'm enjoying mine.
You have a LOT of colors from which to choose.





My first tip: consider getting curtains with a multicolor pattern. With solid colored walls and floor, you'll need some variety in the space. What you end up with will depend on your taste and style sensibilities.





This curtain, for example, is somewhat formal, old-world, and warm:

Using this as your room's ';inspiration piece,'; you might decide do your bedding in orange-rust and gold tones.





This curtain is very cheerful and home-spun:

Doing your bedding in red tones would be a nice complement.





Think in terms of color SCHEME vs. 'what color,' and don't be overly concerned with matching things, just try to coordinate using an ';inspiration piece'; as your focus.





Good luck and have fun ~
A variety of different colors will go with that combination, it really depends on your style and tastes. This web site has a color wheel, which will be helpful for pairing up colors together. There are also some good articles for decorating with those colors.

Good Luck!
Light tones in peaches and pinks. If you could find a curtain with a similar green that has the other tones in it that would match well.
I had the same colour scheme in my other house, as there are so many different shades of green I had cream curtains to match the walls.
I would get something a shade darker then the walls which has subtle accents matching the wall and carpet.
A Sage green colour or Coffee colour
brown look at trees for instance green leaves brown bark nature is beautiful
sky blue, if you doubt the combinaion, look at the yahoo answers color scheme.
as the others said....a cream %26amp; green combination...or even a brown would go very well.
a darker green than the carpet maybe
cream and green
try a deeper shade of green to the carpet and get a cream roller blind
Brown?
Um...beige or brown maybe.
I'd go with bamboo roll up blinds.
anything in the red shade will go well. Gold and silver colors will work as well
