Bedroom Paint Colours

8 years ago

Hello from Jersey,

Could you please tell me what paint colours you used and which direction the bedroom is oriented. The colours are absolutely lovely and work incredibly well with the natural light.

Thank you.

I agree, moles breath is warmer and you wouldn't want your bedroom to feel cold. Great colour!

Hello Nicola E, How you treat the paint work entirely depends on what you want to stand out.. The fireplace or the wardrobes.. This too depends on what else is happening in the room... If just a bed then it's entirely possible to create a feature of said wardrobes by painting them a bolder colour or the chimney breast a darker colour.. Look at the room and consider what you'd like to have as a focal point and how big the room is.. Shades of cream and off whites are far nicer than white.. So if you decide to include a white scheme, definitely look at shades of off white and creams.. Little Greene has a lovely range of chalky colours.. such as Whitening, White Lead, Stock etc.. These can be chosen for wood and walls.... They give a warm, chalky and sophisticated look which can blend beautifully with colours such as Celestial blue or James just to talk of blue and these are warm not cold blues .. I also like Juniper Ash which is a slightly mauve colour but look for warm versions of a colour you like.. So if the fireplace is to stand out and the wardrobes are a pale creamy colour the accent and focus is the fireplace which will benefit if the room is smaller than you'd like.. If you have a large bed then this might be the best way to consider it. If the room is large and you want something to create a statement then consider the fireplace and wardrobes.. A shade or two darker for wardrobes than chimney breast will create a frame surrounding both the fireplace and for the bed if this is facing on the opposite wall.. Blend the bedding and cushions, should you choose them into the scheme to create a cohesive and stylish finish. Lastly if you want a pale room with painted wardrobes these will form a statement and frame if you have less in the room... : )) Blended.... Contrast... This one isn't a bedroom but you get the idea..

We have just painted a feature wall in our bedroom with paint colour similar to Farrow and Ball Stiffkey Blue which is a very rich dark blue - which we love. Not sure if you plan to change your existing neutral or if you need them to work together. Our other walls and fitted wardrobes are painted Cornforth White (which is a warm grey - beige colour). Our room orientation is different to yours though. See pic below (ignore the Hoover!)

I would say it's a warm pink but our bedroom is directly north facing so the light is really cold and that works well with this colour. I’ve just taken this photo so mid-morning on a very dull day. I love the colour in this room but I’m not sure I would like it all in in any of the south facing rooms unless it had a lot of dark grey or something similar with it. Could you paint the tester onto a big piece of paper and stick it up in the right room to get a better feel?
