What color and pattern should I use for my stair runner?

My style is French Country. The colors of my curtains are floral with French Blue, Yellow, Red. My walls all over the house are off-white. I am choosing among 3 nice ones: (1) gold persian design (2) yellow with blue lattice design (3) patterned (not as busy as persian) earth-tone terracota with black border
What color and pattern should I use for my stair runner?
I like choice 2.



Something nice and simple (as long as the lattice isn't too tight). Keep the attention/busy-ness on the curtains.
Reply:forget the first choice!! 2 or 3 would be better; although 2 is too repetitive, color-wise, while 3 would be a little better, depending on how 'loud' the pattern is; it should be muted and not jump out at you; the earth tones would go well with your curtains........not sure about that black border, though!!!! good luck.email me if you want....
