What color should i paint me room?

My room is going to have a beach-like theme, and bright colors, such as bright green, pink, blue, etc.What color should i paint me room?
play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to find something that you like. It is the best paint visualizer on the web, imho. I like how their color palette is laid out, I like that you can search by color family %26amp; color name, the ';painted'; rooms look the most realistic, and it suggests coordinating color schemes. You can literally spend hours:

I think a color called ';mesclun green'; (# 6724) would look great.What color should i paint me room?
1] walls - sky [ sky blue ] with a few white puffy clouds. Maybe sea blue or sea green 'ocean' on lower 1/3 to 1/2 of walls.


2] add sand colored carpet [ beach ]; maybe a sisal mat too


3] bright beach towel decorative pillows, perhaps valences, OR


4] 'fish net' valences/curtains [ with shades or bamboo blinds beneath ]


5] could also use life vests as through pillows [ just close them up ]


6] palm tree standing lamp


7] beach or deck chair with bright cushions


8] coconut scented candles [ smell like sun lotion ]


9] old aluminum/metal coolers as night table, side table [ and storage ]


10] posters of famous, beautiful, or unusual beaches


11] large shells for planter, dresser or desk accessories
Either paint it a sand color to off-set all the bright beach colors or paint a dark blue at bottom of wall and a lighter blue at the top.In the middle paint some more light and dark blue at top and bottom leaving about 2 1/2 foot in between then spray water on both sides and brush in between the two to blend them. When you are underwater the water gets lighter as you get closer to the surface. This would make you look like you are under water!
if your going to use bright colors like that i would keep it simple and go with a creme color or more of a sandy color to go along with the tropical colors your going to have in your room that way your walls dont overpower your accent colors or as i would put it to much color like that would look like a bag of skittles exploded in your room instead of looking beachy
2 walls touching bright purple, 2 opposing walls touching white.
magenta and yellow
a light blue
