My colors are white & light turquoise. It has been really hard finding fabrics that match in this turquoise color exactly. What I have so far kind of just complement each other rather than being spot on (which is fine w/ me). I have white bedding w/ light turquoise decorative oblong pillow. I have 1 window w/ light turquoise curtains (has tone on tone pattern). There is a 6 yard scarf over my bed, also light turquoise. My closet (which is on the other side of the room from the window ) doesn't have a door. There's just an entryway from floor to ceiling. I can't stand having it open like that. I'm trying to figure out what color fabric or curtains to buy bcz I'm afraid I'm overloading on light turquoise. But I'm afraid white will look out of place. I found turquoise & white curtains but they look more suited for a young girl's room rather than an adult. Please help!

I cheated and googled this, but it confirmed what I was going to tell you. Salmons, red-oranges, corals, will bring out a balance and your room is going to look stunning! Creams and naturals like flax and woods to offsite the stark whites help too. You have a beautiful start. Congrats!
Using Complementary Colors
Complementary colors are colors that are opposite each other on the color wheel. The complementary color of turquoise, or blue-green on the color wheel, is red-orange. Design a room using these two colors as your main colors. It can be used for accents such as throw pillows on a sofa or on a bed. Purchase turquoise and red-orange vases and group them together on a shelf. If you have a painting of the sea with turquoise waters, paint the wall where the painting will hang a light shade of red-orange to bring out the turquoise in the painting.
Using Analogous Colors
Analogous colors are any three colors on the color wheel that are beside one another. For the color turquoise, the three possible color combinations would be blue-green, blue and green; blue-green, green and yellow-green; or blue-green, blue and blue-violet. Other shades, tints or tones of these colors may also be used. Paint an entire dining room in turquoise and use blue chairs around a table with green cushions for a room vibrant in color. Position plants that are yellow-green in color in the living room or bedroom and use turquoise and green for the furniture and soft furnishings such as the sofa, a settee, a rug, throw pillows and bed sheets.
Using Colors Based on Nature
Think of the colors that you see in nature when decorating a room. Turquoise is often seen in nature with colors such as brown, beige, white and many shades of blue and green. Paint turquoise and white stripes on a wall. Place a wood coffee table on a natural sisal rug in a room with a turquoise sofa and use accents reminiscent of the sea such as seashells, starfish and hurricanes filled with sand and a candle. Use turquoise-colored window coverings in a room with white or beige walls. Use turquoise tiles or different shades of turquoise tiles in a white bathroom. Cover a bed in turquoise sheets in a bedroom with white or beige walls and place a large palm plant in one of the room's corners.
