Need interiors help for my Bedroom

7 years ago

I live in a victorian style flat and the bedroom has pine doors, skirtings and shutters around the windows. I would like some suggestions for colours to use on my bed and rugs for the floor to bring out the best of these features and bring them up to date without loosing the tradional feel to the room.

Would be great to see some pictures. We have lots of lovely stuff for the bed, but hard to suggest something without seeing what bed you have, other furniture?

on a purely practical note white cupboards would look fabulous and also leave you far moore options for the future if (like me) you like to change your colour schemes regularly!

My wife and I have just had a very long discussion on paint ( for a change - it's her greatest bug bear! ) - We both agree, having been trade customers for years with Dulux, that their paint is superior to most. However, and, there's a big but coming here. There colour match cards rarely bear any resemblance to the paint mixed, and, the scanning service is simply appauling. I have lost count now over the past two or three years how many tins of paint i've taken back due to them bearing no resemblance to the card or the item scanned. Maybe it's just a problem with our local shop, but, I don't see why I should need to locate another one to buy more and test the theory. Hence, we are now writing to Dulux to complain. ( Perhaps I should do a vote on here! ) Anyway, we have grudgingly swapped to Valspar at B&Q ( used to be Crown ). The colour cards, and, in particular the scanning service are second to none, it's fabulous. So, go to BandQ get some colour cards, take them home, whittle them down to 2 or 3. Then go back to the shop, and by the tester posts, paint them on to A4 sheets of paper and hang them up / walk around with them. Paint changes with light so it's quite important to do this. Your decorator is your decorator, you are the ones paying him, and therefore, you shall dictate what paint is being used not him - I'm sure he'll understand, that is if he wants the job!

Hi Sianie, This a great sized window for a bedroom with beautiful day light streaming through. To maximise the light and keep the look fresh I suggest fitting blinds into the recess. Our made to measure drill free roller blinds have a fabric changing option. Simply hook on and hook off your preferred fabric without changing the mechanism. We have a wide range of dim out fabrics in whites, creams and neutrals which would complement your greys without being too heavy. [See below; Spring Twig,Natural Linen, Frost White] If you decide to forgo curtains completely then we offer a large range of Bloc Out Roller Blinds in neutral and greys too. Good Luck Sile

Hi, This looks very similar to what we've just gone through with our top floor (with sloping ceilings) for our master suite. I spent hours and hours looking at pictures of loft conversions how to figure it out! We ended up using a designer who was amazing in helping us visualise the space. I would highly recommend getting some 3D renders done of the room (a few hundred pounds) with different options so you can really see how things will look. In wasn't until our designer (Gina from Create Perfect) did the 3Ds and put people in so I could see the impact of head height that I could really 'see' the space. She did us 3D plans and then progressed onto full 3D renders. We would have made some very costly mistakes working just off architect's plans... wardrobes with lots of low level wasted space, a toilet that you would have to bend down to get to and a bed that you couldn't sit up properly in, to name a few!) I've attached a few pics of some of the 3D renders that helped us decide what not to do! Along with one of what we did decide. Good luck whatever you do but my advice would be to spend a little bit of money upfront and make sure you get it right
