What 2 color combination wall paint goes well with my brown vinyl flooring?

This is for a small room with 1 bed and 1 crib for my baby. I don't have any idea on what wall color for my baby's crib side and for the bed's side considering I have permanent vinyl brown flooring.What 2 color combination wall paint goes well with my brown vinyl flooring?
I'm with Samantha R - you can use any number of ';virtual'; paint shops before you pick out your finals.





I might add that for my final colors, I almost always try to find an inspiration piece - something you pick out a key color with, and use that either for one of your main colors or as the accessory color.





Your main colors should follow a 60/30/10 guideline - you've already got brown as your 30. Your 60% color will be the walls, and 10 % will be bedding , trim, accessories, and so on. That doesn't mean that you don't have other colors in the room, but if you have a 60/30/10 split, no one color overwhelms the space.





With a new baby and a brown floor, I'd probably want something both cheerful and gender neutral. I'd probably look for yellow for the 60 - something like a buttery soft yellow, and white for trim. The brown in the floor can also be picked up in side furniture, the crib and so on, then use sheets in the baby's colors.What 2 color combination wall paint goes well with my brown vinyl flooring?
I would try before you buy! Go to this site and use their virtual room designer. You can change floors, walls and more - this way you can play with lots of different colors before you paint. Have fun with this!

Try looking up colors that are supposed to help baby's brain development. You can also research colors that are good for children online.





Try this site for ideas! Good Luck!
I would go for a cream and a taupe. The colours are neutral, soft and cozy for baby and you will be able to add almost any colour in bedding and/or accessories you would like for a pop of colour.
If the baby is a girl, use pink on her side and mocha on yours.


For a boy, use blue and mocha.
I might try a pale yellow - almost cream - and a pale green.
Cream and dull yellow
