Colour palattes

Was looking for ideas for a colour scheme for Freya's bedroom and stumbled across the site colour lovers Who would have thought that you could loose so much time just looking through pictures of colours!
A couple of my favs are clairedelune and thoughtprovoking

thoughprovoking
 However interestingly, even though I love the colour palettes I didnt necessarily like the effect of  the colours in the images created with them, it is amazing how much difference the balance of colours can make. Such a massive subject area you can really loose yourself in it. I wonder if there is a similar psychology for patterns?
Back to the task at hand and colours for Freyas room. I like the colour plum, and I want it to be feminine but not girly and it has to go with the navy red and white that lewis has on his side of the room.


Not quite there yet maybe they look a little dull?(It is a bedroom though) I will come back to it with fresh eyes later. The next problem will be finding fabrics and things in the colours. This site could be helpful as it prints your custom designs onto fabric www.spoonflower.com I haven't had a proper look though yet but it looks like there are a lot of yummy fabrics on there to choose from.
