Help! Bedroom colour scheme

3 years ago

Have just painted our bedroom but now stuck what colour curtains / accessories to get. Any advice much appreciated, I don’t really want yellows / browns / greys, something to add a bit of contrast? Thanks in advance

I guess it depends how you want your room to feel but if you want an ice cream sundae vibe you could pair it with baby pink. For a vibrant contrast you could add coral and oranges. Or for a more relaxing contrast beige and creams. I hope this helps and if you are still not sure it might be worth looking for online inspiration. Good luck!

I'd pick out one of the colours in your bedding. You said you don't want yellow, but I think a mustard yellow could work.

I would also definitely go white if the windows are on the green wall. Will be much more natural to tie the accent wall with the stark wht contrasting walls. Always a very chic contemporary look. Also very relaxing as opposed to the treatments standing out when you already have your standout feature- the green accent wall. Great white bed you ordered! Then I love all the blue/green/ silver accent advice. I did a similar room in purples/greys/ whites and we used great posted prints of florals with a little oriental flair in nice big mats w frames. You could do florals or nice big botanicals in greens would be very fresh and modern!! White or silver frames or maybe even the shock of black would be cool.

Pine floor has an orangy or golden tingeYou can go deep grey and the grey paletteor lilacs and mauves or bolder with warmer corals (don't go too near orange as it can end up looking too much like fake tan gone wrong)or blueshttps://www.houzz.com/photos/great-neighborhood-homes-traditional-bedroom-minneapolis-phvw-vp~1062398

With the wood trim, and a white crown . .. I think the duvet color scheme wants white painted skirting and window / window sill. Then, try a softer violet on the accent wall .. .since both the red or the blue could coordinate with that but otherwise we have opposites - As a backdrop, violet can be nice with gray and white. Look at bm faded violet http://www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/paint-color/fadedviolet#ce_s=violet and bm picket fence for the other walls, ( a soft warm off white that echos the tone of the carpet) with crisp white trim. http://www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/paint-color/picketfence If you want a deep shade, look at wood violet .. http://www.benjaminmoore.com/en-us/paint-color/woodviolet#ce_s=violet the thing with a small room is that a shot of intense color can do a lot if paired mostly with neutrals and white. Great if you have a white wood headboard or padded slipcover above the bed, white matted art. . .. you do have good natural light, but with a dark wall you will want bedside lighting to be light and bright for nighttime. Here, the wood provided a gold element that was sort of helpful with the blue but will clash with where you are going.. Paint it out, and voila, you are on your way. . . there is a thread where a woman focused on white with coral - I'll find it and bring you the link so you can follow her decision making - she chose a strong accent wall in a small room and then concentrated on white and it is lovely.

Adding width BEHIND THE BED - with a headboard (which doesn't have to be a "headboard"; it could be fabric, collection of mirrors, collection of pictures, a farm gate!, small chairs or stools) across the entire width. Matching bedside tables/bookcases/chests/ with LAMPS - useful storage for extra books, extra bedding, etc. CURTAINS always warm up a room. People will always feel colder away from home - provide an extra blanket or duvet to add to the bed. I notice there is no WARDROBE. Not really necessary for overnight guests (provide hooks on the back of the door) but useful for storing your out-of-season coats, etc. There is plenty of room behind the door. Buy one on eBay and paint it to suit your colour scheme.

I see your post is a few weeks old, must have got lost in all the other posts. As your bedding is patterned I would go with simple linen mix curtains in the palest of grey, almost like the walls. Are the walls grey on that wall? It will be restful and relaxing.
