I like the first one. If you think the blue is off color wise, what about chalk or milk paint it white and distress to show the blue? What are you putting on the wall over the bed?

love that idea! I have a light blue apholstered headboard and some euro pillows on order

Better picture of headboard

Much prefer the first option. As you keep layering your blues, you may decide that the current colour of the bookcase is A-OK. Sometimes that is just how blues work together....more blues,more better ;-) But tweaking the shade later is not hard to do.

Definitely the blue bookcase. The blues don’t have to be the same. It’s actually more interesting if they aren’t.

I think a taller lamp would look better.

thanks everyone

I'd pick the first one. The wood one is too short and too open. The white one is too narrow, possibly a smidge tall, and I'd want the door to open the other direction.

In terms of color, the white seems to fight with the bedding and tries to stand out too much. The wood could work, but there would need to be more wood for it to tie into in the room. While I'm not generally a blue person, I think it works nicely with the walls and curtains. The deep tone doesn't jump out but isn't boring either. I love the teapot!

I love the blue one. Your wall color is beautiful.
