WHAT PAINT COLORS ARE BEST FOR A BEDROOM?

Consider the Mood

You’ll find all sorts of expert opinions on the colors you should choose for your bedroom, but don’t let those opinions cloud over your true nature and needs. What mood do you want to feel in your bedroom? Do you want to feel cozy? Relaxed? Energized? Clean? Fresh? The paint color should reflect how you hope to feel as you end your hectic day — and as you begin anew the next day.

If you struggle to commit to a color — or feel as if you might become overwhelmed with an allover color, but still want it in your bedroom — think about how you can bring it in in little doses.

A red accent wall won’t overpower the entire room, but could bring in an energy you want to feel. Include paneling on the bottom portion of your wall that you paint one color, while leaving the top a neutral color. Install a chair rail, and paint the bottom color lighter or darker than the top.
