      I like to keep the walls neutral and then put up color with decor. That way it can be changed easily. I did put up a wall of cloud paper but its not wall paper, just regular paper that came in a roll

        Im changing mine too. now i have walls like a tealish color, but changing it because the town/mortgage co/ins co dont understand Im not a fortune 500 business and need it to look more playroom/family room.

        Im thinking beige but I hope it doesnt ruin my business as I do run a preschool

            as you can see from all the pics I've been posting mine is a green. It was boring builders white before that (NOT a good color for a kids playroom!!!) and in my old house the room was yellow.

            I like color - my kitchen is orange!

              Hehe Mine is Pink, red, blue, green, yellow and purple.
              One wall is painted like a lava lamp. The other is a block wall so I painted it to look like legos stacked. It is bright. We LOVE it.

                Mine is wood, because we have a log home, so it's light pine. The carpet is dark green, so I have sort of a cottage-in-the-woods theme, with red-and-white gingham curtains over some sunflower motif sheers from Germany (think Heritage Lace, but in white with color).

                When I had a painted room, it was a the color of vanilla bean ice cream. I had primarily red accents, and light blue industrial carpet. The cieling was car-sided in pine, and I had some really awesome art work in sort of a colored pencil sketch theme in pine frames. That was a beautiful room! I wish I still had it, but that would mean I'd have to have kept my first husband. So not worth it...

                  Well I took the easy way out and painted the whole house interior the same color. It's a light tan/peach color. Looks pink in the pictures I posted though.

                    I have 2 light blue walls and 1 large light yellow wall. The colors are kind of muted pastel and not bright.

                            Mine is a light green color and the kids are able to sponge (finger-paint) colors on the bottom half whenever they want so it’s a mess of the color palette (but they love it, so I keep it). I thought about doing a multi-colored theme but interior paint is so expensive that I typically just go with one color.

                              well its in my house, so it varies. Would be bright and cheerful otherwise. Want my future classroom to look as much like a living room as i can.
