Answers:
no, it's not fem. it's a soft tranquil unisex colour.
light green doesn't have to be feminine...just pick the right shade...like a sage.
There are lots of shades of green - I am sure you can find one that you don't think is feminine. A lot will depend on what else you put in the room - bedspread, etc.
You can also use a beige, or a yellow to brighten up the space.
sage green. then add accents of darker green w/ poss blue/ grey
how about a green-grey? It would b light then u could accent w/ different greens or even add charcola/grey/black/navy
they also make a blue-grey... i think it would not b feminme. What u accent & put into the room will make it masculan or feminme
Go get samples of paint samples then put on u'r wall.. look at thru out the day & nt. Think of what other colors u have going on w/ u'r bedcover /etc & decor... then go w/ that one.
B creative & go 4 it!
I light green would be perfect, light green doesn't mean your any feminine than the man on the moon. It just means your are outgoing and risk taker. So I say go for it
If you like it do it.
it is your room ..whatever makes you happy but i like the green color..it is not feminine
I dont think it would be too feminine, just depends on how you decorate it from there! You could just do a major wall light green and the rest an off white/beige color, and then that way you wouldnt feel like your being feminine but yet your adding color and design to a dark room.
lite green can work wonders on a dark room, its exactly the colour i chose when doing my bedroom, and, although i am female, my partner found it relaxing too.
it looks great, especially with floor boards and the right blind and the right paintings/decor.
NO, I DONT THINK ITS TOO FEMININE!!!
Not at all! I think a light green is handsome, especially when paired with fabrics/leathers in browns, beiges, stone greys and tans. And add black accents to give the room some strength. You can reinforce the wall color or add a brighter accent through area rugs, pillows, pictures...
When picking out colors at the store, note that colors will go on stronger or brighter than they appear on the swatch. The shades will range from "pure" to "shaded", meaning going from the brightest to the most muted and subtle. Bright shades, even when pale, are vibrant and cheerful but can come off glaring and intense too. I did a powder room once in a pale "pure" aqua and it was so bright that it made my eyes water!
Most major paint brands have an online virtual color system where you can see what colors look like on walls. And some, like Behr paints, allows users to upload pictures of their homes/rooms for a nominal fee to test paint colors on their walls.
AJ beat me to the punch cuz I was gonna suggest green-gray-aqua's. Go to the Benjamin Moore site and click on personal color viewer then click let's paint then click family then click on the square that says game room. It shows 3 light greens (oddly called) palladian blue, wythe blue and stratton blue. they are like greens to my eyes and to me they look masculine and magnetic. good luck and let us know how it goes
