This is a topic near and dear to my heart because I recently painted my living room in a lovely, light peach shade.
And let me tell you, trying to coordinate carpet colors with peach walls nearly drove me bonkers!
But after plenty of trial and error, I emerged victorious with fabulous colors that complement peach walls beautifully.
Now before we dive in, let me regale you with the hilarious tale of my carpet shopping adventure.
Picture me, a casually dressed 30-something, wandering the aisles of the carpet store, muttering to myself as I hold up fabric swatch after fabric swatch next to a peach paint chip.
An overly eager salesman tried to help and started suggesting options like neon green shag carpet or navy blue berber.
Yikes!
As you can imagine, hilarity ensued as I politely declined such daring choices.
However, with the salesman’s uh, unique suggestions in mind, I now know exactly what carpet colors do and do NOT pair well with peach walls.
The short answer is to stick with warm, complementary colors in the same color family as peach, like apricots, corals, light browns and cream.
