Need help designing my bedroom
Comments (8)Thanks Chemayne, yes, that is correct re: position of the bed. There is a small bedroom behind where the bed is currently and ultimately i'd like to turn it into a walk in robe. That's funny, i never considered the grey bed to be masculine, although my mum didn't like it so maybe that should have been a clue! I keep coming back to it though, but not too sure if it is too low for the room. Unfortunatley there doesn't seem to be many grey beds around to compare it with. As for those pictures, thank you. However i don't think any of them are my taste. They are all a bit busy i think. I like the white trim which i am going to get done. I think from these i'm leaing towards Ighter coloured walls as well. I think the blue walls on number 1 is a bit much and no:4 with different curtains would be okish too....See MorePlease I need help advice/tips on redecorating my bedroom, Thankyou.

Comments (8)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....See MoreBedroom
Comments (5)If so it looks like the matching side table is being used for your vanity. If you can move the bed, use these on either side of the bed. Add small table lamps you can pick up cheap from a thrift store. Everything does not have to be new in a room to enhance the style. I'm with Barbara to find a pretty area rug you like. Maybe use the colors for new inspiration. Change your bedspread to a fluffy white comforter. Ikea.com has the neatest white net style lacy drapes for $3.99 a pair. They are very long & quite full so you can maybe buy 4 pairs to make them extra full. I don't know what your budget is however just making these few changes can help bring some new life & give you more inspiration. Oh, pick up a textured fluffy pink throw to drape over your easy chair. I know you must get fashion magazines. Go through some to find several fun photos, use a razor to cut them out & when you can buy some white frames for them to hang across from your bed to look at. Have some fun with it....See MoreTennis Boy

Or something like farrow and balls elephants breath? Or look at Dulux Egyptian cotton

2 years agoLove navy feature walls. I have Little Greene Woad in my kitchen. I think the pink will go nicely with it, but I agree with Minnie to use a pale grey for the rest of the walls. Dulux Polished Pebble is lovely and quite pale. Or how about a more dirty pink - something like F&B Setting Plaster or Dulux Blush Pink.
