Choosing colors for your bedroom

The best bedroom paint colors support the mood you want to create, from light and peaceful to warm and cocooning. Soft whites, gentle neutrals, muted blues, and natural greens can create a calm bedroom, while navy, charcoal, plum, and other deeper shades can add comfort, depth, and personality.

Consider your bedding, flooring, furniture, window treatments, and the amount of natural light the room receives. Light colors can help a small bedroom feel more open, while darker colors can make a large room feel more intimate. Test potential colors behind the bed and on more than one wall to see how lighting and shadows affect the finished look.
