Need Colour Suggestions for Master Bedroom!
We are replacing the flooring in our bedroom in June and I’m thinking that now would be a good time to change our colour scheme in our bedroom. The walls are currently (for the past ten years!) BM Sundried Tomato. I’ve loved the deep colour and warmth that it brings. It’s also lovely with our honey pine furniture.
My ensuite is the same as when we moved in and it actually goes with our new whole house colour scheme of turquoise/teal, blues (BM Blue Echo and Smokey Green) and Revere Pewter. I think I’d like a colour that will flow better while maintaining a richness in the colour.
Would this colour that I'm attaching work with the furniture? I’m hoping to go for a more elegant feel but may be impossible to achieve as painting the furniture would be a marriage-breaker!

Comments (9)If you are wanting to almost start over, I would paint in a soft blue or soft blue/green or soft green. These colors are restful, soothing and inviting. Wood floors will be great. I would get white bedding and maybe some colorful shams. White will work with anything else. Move the bed in the center of the wall. I would repaint the nightstand white and move it closer to the closet to be able to center the bed. Get another nightstand same height. Or get two new white taller night stands. You could get a small desk to go with the chair. Paint the chair white. Maybe window panels in a semi-sheer woven frint fabric. Place a dressing mirror on the back of the door. Take the colors from the drape for throw pillows on the bed. It will feel bright and fresh, yet restful. Something like this feeling Wall color and bedding...See Moreneed help for a bedroom
Comments (3)Hi. Is this the Rockefeller image? If so, It's quite grey so I'd go for either chalky white or a pale grey for walls. Maybe a mid grey for curtains, if the light is good, have a look at Next for ideas. Mix white, grey and charcoal for the bed. Add a couple of black accents like a picture frame, lamp shade etc. maybe go for a mustard as an accent colour (think New York cabs!)...See MoreNeed help with bedroom colour scheme
Comments (6)Hi Orla. I've looked at your ideabook and assume you're happy to stick with the monotone look? I'd look at papering the ŵall behind the bed in Cole and son library panel wallpaper in midnight (pic will follow but it would also look good in a light shade!). The rest of the walls I'd do in a pale but warm grey. Which way does the room face in terms of lights? Go for black bedside cabinets but maybe something with curved lines or round handles against the bed. Either glass bedside lamps with white shades or in a warm metal or pendants hung low over the bedsides, Stick to white bed linen but add a charcoal throw with lots of texture. Choose cushions with different texture and patterns from White through to charcoal. Depending on what flooring you have you could also add a grey textured rug under the bed. I'd go for plain pale-mid grey curtains. If you have the space/budget a patterned black/grey and white chair would look great. I think the key thing is texture for interest so maybe also a large antiqued mirror, a chandelier with a silk drum shade, white flowers etc....See Morecwurch
5 years agoFlooring is ordered - we live in a northern (cold!!) climate and had to consider noise reduction, so we stayed with carpet. It’s a grey tone but with flecks of brown so very neutral. I‘m Just getting an idea of wall colour so I know where to start looking for bedding! Thanks for everyone’s help!

5 years agoThanks for the suggestion, emmarene9! I also looked at these two duvet covers yesterday - looks like there is a lot of different ways I could go with Knoxville Gray! Would either of these work? I’d add
qua pillows/throw to add more colour.

5 years agoHey Everyone! My husband is preparing to paint the bedroom on the weekend - I just need
to finalize the colour! I’m confident I’ll find bedding to match either of these colours but could you please help me choose between these two? Steep Cliff gray is just a bit lighter. Would Knoxville be too dark at night? I love a cozy room but don’t want to feel like it’s a black hole!

5 years agoI love your paint color! It came out great. Kudos to hubby for volunteering.
Perhaps some of these bedding sets might work? Your feedback about what you do or don’t like about them will help us in looking for the perfect bedding :)
Alternatively you could go with a subtle neutral tone-on-tone patterned comforter in shades of tan, greige or grey, and tie back to you wall color with a lumbar pillow in the wall color.
Accessories and hardware choices tbd after bedding is chosen, bedding must come first and set the tone for rest of room! Then all other elements will be easier to select once you have a solid vision for where this room is going, and a jumping off point from the bedding. And it’ll become easier to balance what choices need to be made to make the existing furnishings look (more) intentional.
Best wishes to your husband during his radiation treatments, you’re in my thoughts for a speedy recovery and a strong support system during this journey <3cwurch thanked Pam K

5 years agoAlso heres a large swatch of your wall color. Since it changes depending on the light in your room pics, this might be helpful for others to search for bedding?

5 years agoI picked up this cover from IKEA yesterday - it fits my duvet as I just realized that my duvet is smaller because it is IKEA - but does this work? My husband actually likes it!

4 years agoAfter 2 months I’m ready to get back to finish up my room! I’m a teacher and June is always the craziest time of the year!
I’m turning my attention right now to my mirror over the dresser. We switched locations for the dresser and removed the matching mirror. We’d still like a mirror in our room so I’m wondering if this one that I’ve had in storage could work? I’d like to spray paint the frame and wondering if silver would be a good choice? Or would white be better? My curtain rod is silver but I’m not sure if that would be a consideration?
I’m also wondering what I should do with the light fixture? Should I replace it with something more decorative? Any of the light fixtures I’ve looked at look too much like bathroom fixtures. I’d appeeciate some ideas for that as well. Thanks!

4 years agoHere’s a couple more angles of our room. My dream is to get rid of the armoire and bookshelf and replace with a full wall white built on cabinet but that will have to wait for a bit untill we recooperate from our full-house flooring makeover we just did!
i also have white curtain
panels that I’m planning to hang on a nickel rod.
