You have chocolate brown leather furniture and was wondering what colours would mix well with this?

For your walls, a caramel tan, or sage green would work. Pick window treatments that combine the wall colour and the brown. Accent pieces in a darker shade of your wall colour will give the area punch without overpowering it.

Romantic color to paint room?

What do you decorate the halls with?

Hallways and stairways can present problems for new decorators. Use your knowledge of your own lifestyle and personal tastes to help guide you.

For a hallway on the ground level of a multi-person household with young or teenage children and a casual lifestyle, try a utilitarian approach. Spaces to hang coats, store book bags and tuck shoes/boots out of the way will reduce the clutter in this area.

For a hallway in the upper floor of an old family home, you might want to keep the paint light coloured as these areas sometimes can be dark. A "gallery" of family photos enhanced by good lighting would be suitable in this area.

What colour scheme is good when you have light laminate flooring but a small bedroom?

Stick to light colors, with a hint of black or purple here and there.

If you're talking about furniture, stay away from dark colors all together. Dark colors make small rooms look even smaller. My furniture choice was light colored wood but I painted it white after a couple of years.

As for the flooring, stick to the light colors because they have a better chance in making the room look even bigger than it actually is.

A good color scheme is hot pink and a light purple; red and yellow; light blue and light green. If you want to, use all the colors you like.

You might be able to use accents of dark colors.

I suggest you try experimenting with what you like and see which colors work for you.
