Need help with bedroom decorating

11 years ago

I am trying to come up with color and pattern ideas to decorate my bedroom. It is very brown due to all the woodwork. The only colors hubby prefers I don't incorporate are: green, yellow, purple. (Light shades/hues are ok)

Unfortunately, I am limited with furniture layout due to many built ins in the room. The furniture and mirror will stay where they are. The carpet is staying..... for now. I am open to painting the walls. I was originally thinking of possibly just painting the wall area above the bed for some contrast.

I apologize for the glare in the pics, but I had already taken down the curtains, and the sun is shining today! :-)

I have been scouring the Internet for ideas, but am interested in hearing ideas from anyone interested in sharing some!

Thank you!

I think a blue/gray scheme would play nicely against the wood.

Might be better if you posted this on home decor rather than conversations...it's more heavily trafficked.

Hmmm....I guess I don't know where to find "home decor". When I click on home decorating, it takes me to conversations.....

If you are in Home Decorating Conversations, there's a gray bar beneath that says Related Forums: Home Decorating. Click that link and it will take you there.

Or click on Home Forums on the left under Gardenweb and it will take you to a list of topics under "The House". Select Home Decorating and it will open the main forum...conversations is a subsidiary forum for off topic conversations.

I don't see a blue/gray color scheme with the current carpeting, which looks to be yellow and orange. If you can remove the carpet, it would open up opportunities for other colors in the room.
