Bedroom paint color schemes can help you redo your entire home. Often the bedroom is one of the last rooms to be decorated in a home simply because it’s not open to the rest of the house. In typical fashion you might be putting yourself last even though it’s your room. Use paint to transform your space on a budget.
You might want to go for a bolder master bedroom paint to make a big impact or add intimacy to a large space. You can make your room modern by going with a contemporary black or deep charcoal color. Paint one wall in a deep color to be the focal point of the space. If you have a low platform bed then paint the wall behind it darker to give the allusion of height and add importance to the room. The rest of the walls should be neutral and you may find that you want to add extra lighting to keep the room from becoming depressing.
You can still use black paint colors for bedrooms even if you aren’t feeling daring. Start out with taupe walls; you can even use subtle damask wallpaper for a touch of elegance. Then paint your furniture black. This will give importance to a traditional four poster bed and lend a contemporary air. Make the room sparkle with crystal chandeliers and lamps to give your room a look of a fancy hotel suite.
You’ll want to choose tones that are relaxing to create a space that you can actually sleep in such as pale green bedroom paint. Shades of gray, lavender and blue can also create a calming atmosphere. You might want to go for a monochromatic color scheme so that you don’t break up the space. You can use different tones of the same color on moldings, doors and the walls. You can even keep the furniture in the same color family. Even if you are going for neutral ivories and browns the space will still be interesting because of the different textures and shades.
You should include a color for your furniture in your bedroom paint design. Before you just throw out pieces save the environment and your wallet with just a can of paint. You won’t often find real wood furniture anymore; even if you are in a pricier furniture store you may just be getting some version of laminate. So use vintage pieces for graceful lines and a substantial feel. If you are working in a kid’s room add interest to flat colored cabinets by painting each drawer a different color. You can buy small quarts of paint and use the same paint strip so things don’t get too wild. Keep the rest of the room in one solid color with neutral accents so your painted furniture piece really pops.
Bedroom paint color schemes allow you to create a retreat. You can make a color palette that is uniquely you or drive home a theme for less money.
