What is YOUR favorite color? Go with that. I have loved blue-green for always and I don't like orange. You will find a lot of teal and turquoise in my home.
Find a picture in a magazine or online of a room you love and study the colors used in that room. I am doing that now as I try to change the color scheme a little in the lanai...and keep it still with the rest of the house. There is a poster on this forum called LaryB and his wife is doing some consulting. She is a novice but she has some of the best color sense and decorating sense of any person I have ever met. Send a P.M. to LaryB. Mary and Lary live in Buttonwood. I am going to find some pictures of rooms I love to share with you...…..Just cause I love to look at pictures of lovely rooms. Make it your own...good luck! P.S. Show us a picture of your room.
Here are some lovely pictures of Florida homes...…..
