I'm wondering should it be totally white(not my first choice), or a soft beige, or yellow or what? I know it needs to be easy on the eyes and pleasant at the same time. The room has two windows in it and hardwood floors. I would really appreciate your opinions!
Thank you all for all the wonderful feedback as to what colour to paint the Tin Lizzie room. I ended up taking 1 cup dark beige and adding it to a gallon of white. It made it a very soft beige/peach colour with white woodwork and ceiling. I was notified this morning that my Tin Lizzie will be here next Friday, so, once she is setup next weekend, I will post pictures of the room finished and setup. Thank you all for your input.
