Bedroom Paint Colors

last modified: 3 years ago

Hi everyone,


I’m in the process of getting my houses painted before I move in, and had a question about our toddler son’s room and the guest room. The entire house is getting painted to Dunn-Edwards Droplets off-white, with Swiss Coffee trims. We love the clean look. For the two bedrooms in question, our painter suggested we can choose another color and he’d put on washable finish of those colors since it’ll be kiddos mostly. The two that we like out of three were Mow the Lawn (sage) and Snow Lodge (light blue). The baseboard and crown moldings will be Swiss coffee white, and there’s also a trim a foot below the crown which would be the same white.


What do you guys think about the toddler room painted entirely light blue minus the trim, and the guest room painted entirely sage green minus the trim? Or would you recommend just one end wall to be painted in those colors? Let me know what you guys think is the best option from your experience. Any regrets? I can go white on off white everywhere by default but I thought this would add some character. Thanks in advance!


Three colors we initially picked, in light


Three colors with less light refleciton


Current picture of the guestroom in a yellow-tone wall before repaint. Room gets lots of natural light so I was thinking the darker paint might be okay. Oh, floors are travertine everywhere which are also getting professionally cleaned so it would be slightly lighter color.


Current toddler's room before repaint. Because of a tall tree outside, this is naturally the darkest room and where our painter had recommended light blue.
