so you have a small squer room with a mauve pink carpet in the middle. and one window..

for walls you can do it light blue (somthing like petrol blue) and the curtain light mauve pink with a dark mauve pink lace

you can use wallpaper with floral patterns.. (light and dark pink-dark yellow-) and then put a checkered -modern like- curtain…. you can use dark yellow -gold like- lace with the curtain.. and this can match the colors on the floral pattern on the wall paper

i think the 2nd option is better…

in all cases i dont think that pink carpet can match well with white walls

Paint the walls a slightly deeper shade of white or creamy beige. Just be sure to pick a shade that compliments your carpet. You’d be amazed what a difference choosing the correct “warm” or “cool” shade will make. Keep the wall color light. It will “open” your room and allow more decorating options. Go to Home Depot or similar store where they have a large selection of paint sample cards and bring a bunch home. See what colors look best in you room (NOT just in the store) and be sure it works with your carpet. Consider adding a wallpaper border and new bedding to pull the look together. Waverly.com, shabbychic.com and Notooshabby.com are some great places to look for ideas and inspritaiton. Hope this helps!

It might be a little unusual but I’d go for a light gray colour, on the blue side of gray. It’s a soothing peaceful colour so it’s good for a bedroom. I think that with mauve pink, gray, and white lace you could have a charming room. Get some other things in lace besides the curtains–pillowcases, doilies, lampshades. The roses you love could also work in very nicely with this sort of look.

Paint your room a creamy color, like “Sand Dollar White” by Behr (it’s actually more of a yellow-beige than a white). Or if you want to go a slight bit darker, I think that “classic taupe” would look pretty. Check ‘em out:

As for the curtains, I like the sound of the solid mauve with white lace.
