I like the idea of the beige with the red. I think it will really look good.

I love the red color. I think it would look great with the olive walls.

I totally love red but mixing green and red might be a little christmasy. I love the print...so if your walls are a similiar color to the dress..then the beige would be great for the drapes. Since the print is so bold, I would keep everything else really simple so the focus is the print and everything else blends.

Is the photo matted and framed? What are the colors of the matte and frame? Maybe tie it in with that? I think white against green looks great too.

I agree with some of the other ladies. Since the print is so bold and your walls are tate olive, I think beige drapes would be a nice match. That way, the print is what the eye is drawn to in the room.

By the way - please post pictures of your house when you can. I have been reading your posts about your rooms and the sound great. I cannot wait to see them

It's not.. I can't explain what it is.. It's like an enlarged print but it's glass-like.. with the wooden backing.. You have to remember it's HUGE.. 37 x 54 inc.

I was thinking of the beige, but it may be TOO light for the room.. I really like the cranberry or brick, but I'm not sure..

I don't think the red with the tate olive would be Christmasy. Normally I woulsd worry about the same thing but it isn't that type of green. I think it would be very pretty.
