Color is a personal choice. Different people will find different colors personally appealing, but there are a few things that might help in making the decisions involved in creating your own work - whether it be for a painting, decorating a room, working with fiber arts, or whatever you are trying to do.
First a bit about color using a color wheel (you can find these online easily). This information is from my personal web site at Crochet Cabana.
The primary colors on the color wheel are blue, yellow, and red.
The secondary colors are those you can make using two primary colors. Those would be green (yellow/blue), orange (yellow/red), and violet (purple) (blue/red).
On your basic 6-color wheel the colors are laid out so that there is a secondary color between each two primary colors, like this: blue, green, yellow, orange, red, violet.
The tertiary colors are those made from a primary and a secondary, such as: blue green, yellow green, blue violet, red violet, red orange, yellow orange. Some people call this the intermediate group and the tertiary as those made by combining two secondary colors. Either way, you're combining colors to make new colors.
You can use this information to find colors that will go together well. A few color schemes/themes you might try include:
monochromatic - similar colors which are side by side on the color wheel - like three shades of red.
analogous - colors that are close together on the wheel. You might choose one color and use one or two colors on either side of it to go along. So you would be using 3 or 5 colors in that case.
complementary - colors directly across from one another on the color wheel, such as red and green, blue and orange, yellow and violet. One variation is to use three or four colors that are evenly spaced from one another on the wheel.
monotone - using colors with the same "tone" or brightness level, such as all pastel colors, or all bright colors.
Neutral colors can be combined with other colors as well. Neutral colors would be shades of white, gray or beige, also black, tan, brown - the earth tones.
One final note on color. Colors can be warm or cool. The reds are warm (red, orange, yellow). Think fire. The blues are cool (blue, violet, green). Think ocean. Also, in regards to temperature, dark colors usually are warmer and light colors cooler if you're looking for colors for clothing.

What do two complementary colors do to each other when used together?
Complementary colors are colors that make one another look good. For example, red looks good with green. When used together, they create a better piece of art. On the other hand, orange and blue are non-complementary colors. If they are used together, they do not look as good as the complementary colors.

What colors go best together?
Coordinating colors look good together. But sometimes, using contrasting color(s) is visually interesting. It depends. I took a class on color theory and this is what I learned. Usually contrast colors like red and green, orange and blue, or purple and yellow look good together. I know it might sound weird, but sometimes it's true. I think yellow and purple are good together myself. Also, the primary colors look great together: red, yellow and blue. Another way is to do the opposite of that and do secondary colors: purple, green and orange.
