Bedroom colours

6 years ago

I would like to change the color of my bedding... I was wanting something with a little more color and I picked a set but I was wondering if anyone could tell me if they thought it would look ok with my wall color etc.... This is my current bedding ...

And I was thinking of this set... do you think the colours will work? Thanks for your help... I wish I had one of those programs to be able to put it in the photo... as I have trouble with colours...

    Hey YOU! Yeah.. I love it too... little pricey... so I am going to wait and see if the price goes down a bit... lol... I just thought it had some nice color... I really like the bela one below too which Is very similar but even more expensive... once you buy the pillows etc... its like 1000 bucks... I thought it would go even better with the wall color... but the price didn't go as well - lol But I like those 2 alot... The funny thing is the one above that you posted... is actually red? at least that what is says on the description... everyone else sees pink... I see copper... so who knows....I don't see pink at all... Basically if I pick something online I want to be able to return it if it doesn't look any good for sure!

    Do you like blue? Madison Park bedding is a great value for the quality and comes with all the pillows and throw blanket.

    Keep it simple and neutral; then add your flowers in the pillows and art.

    Here is a more complex look with Edgecomb Gray

    Again, a light touch with bedding plus floral pillows and more color/pattern on the wall/floor.

    Thank you... nice suggestions... I will run down this week to BB & B and see if I can see that up close.. thank you all so much for your advice and suggestions!

  • 6 years ago

    One more question... do you think if I bought the Madison park Zenna set... could I put another color of pillow (besides the blue) with this set.. and if so what color would you suggest please...

  • 6 years ago

    Since you seem to gravitate toward the warmer colors, I thought this might be a nice choice. I think it would work well with the color of your walls and carpet, as well as with the wood color of your bed.

    Shades of green or coral salmon colors look very pretty with blue.

    I can order this set at Bed bath and beyond... it comes a "6" piece set for $254.99... or I could buy the "7" piece set at overstock for $180.00 but it doesn't come with the little blue pillow or the small little flowery pillow which I would like... so ideally I would prefer to buy it at overstock as the price is lower but I would like to get these 2 pillows... I wonder if I could get them somewhere... I tried to find them and could buy them individually but cant find them... The overstock you also get the throw blanket which I like... does anyone know how I can pick up these 2 pillows and where, by chance? The overstock set you also get the 2 large big pillows..... so all I need is these 2 pillows... I LOVE coral I will look for a pillow for that too...

    Look on Amazon I think it had the stripe pillow in the set...

  • 6 years ago

    I will have a look... what do you think of this color throw with the set? Do you think it would go? I was thinking if I cant get the set with all the pillows and stuff I will just find some....

    They have the comforter set that has different combination than the seersucker coverlet that has the stripe pillow...

    Did you find what you needed?

  • 6 years ago

    Yeah... I just haven't gotten around to ordering it yet... I am sort of still deciding... different places sell different number of pieces.. one has the extra pillows.. one doesn't but comes with different things.. and I am still looking at the set with the roses.. still contemplating.... :)

    Yes I saw that too... another choice - lol Thanks for all your help..!

  • 6 years ago

    Home Interiors.. do you think this set would work? do you think the colours would work by chance? I thought it was a pretty good price and cheery... its also locally sold here... (I have a silk duvet.. I could just cover it... (I like the other set too... and definitely still considering it for sure... just saw this one and thought I would ask what you thought?

    Not crazy about that one..seems too youthful for a young girls room...keep shopping🤗

    Have been looking at bedding for hours today :) Saw Croscill Bela on sale at Macy’s, if you’re still interested. Four-piece set includes comforter, two shams, and bed skirt.

    Awww thank you Sofia... unfortunately... we don't have a Macy's here in Canada... And I don't think they ship here... but thank you for thinking of me... it is a beautiful set! Hopefully you found something you liked :0)

    Actually.... after looking little more maybe they do ship here! I will look further! thanks!

    I almost posted that one it was on Wayfair.ca....but the price was over $500!! So beautiful..does it include everything?

    Macy’s does ship to Canada!

  • 6 years ago

    I think we’re in the same boat! I’m updating our bedroom and have found some things I like. Pulling it all together is harder than I thought it would be and has me questioning the choices I thought I made earlier. At the same time, I’m helping our youngest daughter shop for linens for her dorm room. So if it’s bedding and it’s out there, I think I’ve seen it!

    I really hope you find something you love! I did some internet sleuthing and Macy’s ships to Canada, so maybe that could open up some more options. Like there aren’t enough already, right?

  • 6 years ago

    Sofia... even with the discounts.. its more expensive at Macy's... did you check out Overstock... their prices are pretty good...

  • 6 years ago

    Yeah that Bela one I REALLY like along with the Fleur one... those 2 are just so pretty.. I am almost sort of hoping they will come down in price a bit.. but once you add all the pillows etc... its just pretty pricey.... Nice to get something you really love tho... those 2 sets only come with the comforter and pillow shams... you have to buy all the extra pillows.. which in my opinion make the set... get more costly :0( I really like the COLOR of the fleur... I really want some color in there now.. the other set I have now is so drab... I love COLOR.... and I THINK the fleur would like nice against the wood sleigh bed... ... I did check out Macy's but once you add in the shipping and the duties and taxes... its over 600 bucks...

    The bela I cant even add to my cart... maybe its sold out???

    The thing is that blue looks fantastic with white bedroom set.. not too sure about the wood I have... I think I might wait on the Fleur or the bela set that I REALLY like and hope it goes on sale... I want something warmer looking

    Blue and white is a perfect color with dark stained furniture..it is a classic combination.

    I guess I don't just love blue and white.. do you think if I was able to purchase either the bela set or the Fleur set.. do you think they would be nice with the dark wood and the colours I have going in there? I always kinda think blue and white is kind of a cold color... I guess I would rather put out more money and really LOVE something ... sometimes its worth it.. (Like when we did my dining room... it turned out so well - I just loved what you suggested.. you helped me ALOT.. and I appreciate it very much! I wouldn't of been able to make it look like it did without your help! :0)

    @goldenbird411, You should pick something that makes your heart sing when you look at it. Soft florals similar to your first choice will look lovely in your room




  • 6 years ago

    Thank YOU Jennifer!!... always helps to sort of see it... I am going to save my money and hope they go on sale... if its not too much trouble would you do the same with the bela set... I was just trying to decide between the 2... If its not too much trouble.. :0)

    I can, but you can do this if you have a computer - I tend to keep things really simple. The only tools I used to do this is the snipping tool that comes with Microsoft and excel. I just grab snips of the pictures and drop them into excel and put one picture over the other. If the wrong one is on top you can right click on the top picture and click send to back. When I am done I use the snipping tool again and save the image to my desktop and upload it to Houzz.

    here are 3 images for you

    Another recommendation - buy both on a credit card. Try them both in your room. Send one back before the payment is due and pay the other one off.

    I think your original choice or blue is best.....the other set from Macy’s I think is going to be too pink..a bit Victorian looking..I would stick with deeper colors with your dark bed.

    Jennifer... I am not completely sure if you CAN return right now... I know overstock returns... I would just have to pay shipping back... THANK YOU for all your help Jennifer... Im not very computer savvy... but I will give it a try.. it helps! My daughter says she doesn't think I have excel on my computer.... I would love to buy them both and decide... as its hard sometimes to see it in the room .... but I would definitely have to find out if I can return....

    HIWE.... You think the original one is best... my carpet is creamy with a very slight greenish tinge... They are both kinda similar... just one is more white... wouldn't you say they are both kinda victorian... :0)
