White walls, beige carpet and a gorgeous blue, red and cream colored quilt. What shade of curtain?

I'm completely lost on this one. I've been leaning to a cream/beige colored curtain, something in a traditional style. Any ideas or help? Will a natural colored curtain look bad on a stark white wall? I can't paint in my apartment. Thank you!White walls, beige carpet and a gorgeous blue, red and cream colored quilt.

Use blue for the curtains, and it does not have to be the same shade of blue, but in the same family. If you have an overstuffed chair in the bedroom, continue this theme with pillows of beige, blue, cream, tossed onto it.


I find that it helps if I go to a paint store and get swatches of color and take them home and try them against each other.White walls, beige carpet and a gorgeous blue, red and cream colored quilt. What shade of curtain?
The obvious thing to say would be red and/or blue...unless you want to introduce a new colour?





But I quite like the natural idea, I think beige curtains look good against a white wall... and you could always add a touch of the red and blue. eg with tie backs, finials, blinds, curtain pole, etc.





Also, using red and blue accessories elsewhere in the room will tie the scheme together.
I agree with cream, perhaps with the other colors in it to pull everything together. That is, if you can find such curtains that won't look too busy!
If you hang red curtains or blue curtains on a white wall they will really stand out and not in a good way. It will just look like a huge dark spot on a wall and will make your windows look smaller. Hang curtains in a tan/brown shade similar to your carpet color. That way it will be different in color but not so aggressive that it is the first thing you see when you walk into the room. You can absolutely hang white curtains against a white wall if you want to. It will make the window dissappear to the eye.
I would try to find a solid curtain that matched *either* the red or the blue in the quilt. That will really tie the whole room together.
