Paint Dilemma

13 years ago
I just had my floors refinished to a darker stain and I'm thinking of changing the color of this bedroom but not sure. Any ideas???

    This color on the walls looks very calm.

    I like the color but it make the room appear dark and I'm not sure if it's the picture but it is flat. I think I would go with the gray tones like Mariah suggests and use the wine color as your accent...what is the room being used for?

    Mariah where did you find that first picture u sent me? Im looking for the paint info

    Taupe would look good or an olive green. Panels that go half way up the wall stained a similar color or the same color as the floors would also look good

    If you like the color it is now, could you use crisp white curtains and bedding to brighten it up and perhaps an area rug on the floor ?

    New artwork and a good dusting it looks like the walls have some reno dust on them currently.

    I would go with light or neutrals colors. Your room looks to small for dark colors.

    The floor look great. However, now you have darker floors outlined by light woodbase/moldings trim and then finally dark red looking walls. I would suggest using a warm netural and then step down the white trim color to a more linen color so that the contrast is less between the walls and the trim. Simply, you have too many things going on for a small room.

    I like cream with that color of wood. Or a darker grey with a bit of lavender. Greige is also great-

    First of all, love your floors! Secondly, sorry in advance that this paint app made your upper trim look dark, but I hope this still gives you an idea anyway! River Gorge Gray by BM would look fabulous on your walls, and you could so a softer color similar on the ceiling.

    LKristine -- question about the BM "personal color viewer" you used -- is that an app you have to buy from BM, or is it part of BM's website that allows you to upload a photo like this bedroom, and you can pick and choose different areas to paint ?

    Darker wall color, with a darker floor can make a room look smaller than it is. It’s always easiest to go with light colors – greys, whites, creams. They are also easier to design with. You can always add color with cushions/plants/paintings.

    In this case, i'd paint the walls a light grey and keep the skirts a white color!

    Thoughts??

    I love the look of white walls by dark hardwood

    Floors need one more coat, but flat. Way too shiny. Tone the floors down and then do your walls in a matte finish.

    Ed, it is a free app on their website! You can upload whatever you want!

    Thoughts-----I like it.

    I think your floors look fantastic, and the shiny will subdue over the coming weeks. I also love your furniture. I think the "greige" color you have chosen is perfect, and it works so well with white trim. I recently saw a new build where the builder had used a similar color and the trim was a complementary pearly white trim in a satin finish, with similar dark floors and it was gorgeous.

    Here is a similar color to what you have inquired about...........It depends on what other colors you may be using in the room. Undertones of paint colors make a huge impact on pulling a room together. I, unfortunately have learned this the hard way................

    Judyg, are you a little grouchy today? LOL :-)

    I think it looks nice. I like it
  • 13 years ago
    The color is very similar to my room right now, I want to remodel my room because I haven't change the color for 13 years... Now you tell me what you think..
