We are remodeling upstairs in our home and I am trying to find the right color for my daughter’s new bedroom. There is light pine wood on the ceiling which slants down on two sides and medium stained baseboards and trim around one big window that faces north. The room gets medium light from window. We put an autumn forest wallpaper mural on one small angled wall which has all different greens in it. I’m thinking a green color for other walls, but cannot find the right green. We want a woodsy forest look in the room, but something that she will still like as she gets older (8 years old now).
Any suggestions of some colors (exact name and brand) would be great. I am looking at several brands, Sherwin Williams, Dutch Boy, Glidden, Pittsburgh, Behr, Valspar, and Ace. Possibly thinking of doing the window wall a lighter color than other walls? Not sure. Thanks.

I suggest you use a hunter green paint as the main color and paint the front wall with light green like new leaves. And the ceiling paint with light sky blue.
Shermin Williams has a couple of colors called Festival Green and Envy that are beautiful. At Glidden, there are two colors called Deep Forest Pine and Forest Green, they would both go great with pine wood. At Pittsburgh, there is a color called Antique Moss, it looks beautiful but kind of light. At Behr, there is a color called promenade and shire green that I really love because it is very deep. There is also another color called Grape Vine that looks kind of Italian. Another one that I like is called Happy Camper and it looks really natural.
Generally pink color is liked by girls. Further blue is better choice for children for study. If your child wants more relax then you could prefer green. Sherman Williams has some great colors with them. Exuberant Pink (SW6840) is for pink, Hyper Blue (SW6965) for blue, and High Strung SW6705 is a bright green can be chosen.
