That's more of a Teal color...


And just happens to be my favorite...Favorite blue paint color?
play around with the Sherwin Williams color visualizer to help you imagine how the colors will look together. 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 ';cooled blue'; (# 6759) might match that perfectly.





You can take a photo of your house %26amp; upload it to the makeover gallery on this website:

You can get color suggestions %26amp; for $5 they'll photoshop them onto your room so that you can get an idea of what it will look like.
If my monitor is showing it right, the shade in the comforter is usually called aqua or turquoise. But when you get to the paint store, the colors will have weird names like Mediterranean blue etc. So I agree - you need to go to Lowes or Home Depot or a paint store and get the free paper strips with groups of colors on them. you may find free booklets too. Then bring them home and compare to the comforter.
Try Tropical Tide #520D-5, which is beautiful or if you want to go a bit lighter try Shallow Sea #520D-4. Get it in a satin finish. Both paint colors are from Behr which is available in Home Depot.
If you want this colour then either bring home some paint chips from the paint store, or take it to the paint store and they can colour match on the computer to get the mix needed..easy!
