Nice furniture set. It goes with a range of colours. See paint ideas:

Depending on your guests, you can cater a more feminine or masculine setting. Ideas:.
you can mix florals to soften the lines of the furniture



Or keep it neutral, linear and modern:

Thanks I definitely prefer neutral, linear and modern

nice furniture - have some color in the room, even if only a small amount.

Modern, linear ideas for that crisp look.



Perhaps repeat the blue in accessories in the room. Some modern table lamp ideas:

Your guests will never want to leave if you make it look this nice :) I don't think it's retro IMHO

One of the reasons why you and your husband may be drawn to this room is because it is calming, this is created by very monochromatic elements and light colors. I would go neutral on paint and not do an accent wall. Bring a hint of color in on your bedding and other soft elements in the room such as a throw at the end of the bed and pillows. Don't go to dark or bright on any color, or what you are trying to create will be lost.
Best of luck! If I were coming to stay at your house, I would never leave my room!

Do you think I can stick with the existing paint colour and just do more of a neutral with green accents?

The existing paint is a little too gold, maybe try something a little more neutral. Something between a grey and beige. Antique white (depending on the paint line) will do what you want it to do and your trim will pop just enough.
You can then accent it in a light green tone such as a very muted teal or even a grayish green.
Good luck.

i think it makes a great guest bedroom and I would opt for more of a beige color for the walls.

Love the look!

Thanks. We have never had the luxury of a guest bedroom so I would like to make it cozy and comfortable.
Any other suggestions of paint colors? The hall will be BM revere pewter. Would a very pale green work? Beige seems a little boring to me.

Hi guys,
Here is an update on the guest room. So moved in, painted and had our furniture delivered. I am testing our this bedspread in the room. What do you think? Would you do white sheets and white drapes as well? We want to keep things simple and classic.
thanks!

It's difficult to tell online what the color is on the headboard and dresser, but I would go with drapes in that color rather than the white.

The headboard and dresser are more of an offwhite/ beige which is what makes this tricky.

Actually your headboard and dresser look a lot like the original that you posted that you liked. The bedspread is very different though. I think that color and style of that bedspread work better with the more modern lines of your furniture. The white, colors and more patterned floral of this bedspread don't work as well. What about the possibility of changing the bedspread to something with simpler lines and color?

Yes I am just trying the bedspread so I can definitely change it up.

I think even a solid would work better. I would keep it in the beige or taupe color range - not white. Or something in blocks of color with beige or taupe or a geometric would work for the bedspread - something with modern, clean lines. Stripes might be something to consider as well. Perhaps the drapes in a linen shade per color and for some texture.
