Try these Bedroom Colors for Rest & Relaxation

Posted on February 28, 2022

Your bedroom should be the most relaxing place in your home. It should be a sanctuary where you can go to relax & rejuvenate after a long, hard day at work. This winter, while the weather is cold and chilly, is a perfect time to refresh your bedroom colors. But choosing colors can be difficult. Our CertaPro Painters can help you find the exact color and complete the job in no time. Here are 6 of the best modern paint colors for bedrooms.

1. Relax with Blues

Blues are always popular for bedrooms because of its calming and restful properties.

Pale blue with whitewashed trim can bring a cottage look to you. With this color scheme, you’ll have a retreat that rivals even the best spa. Since the blue is pail, it acts as a neutral. This means matching textiles and flooring is a snap since nearly anything goes. Make sure your blue has hints of lavender and gray to offset any reds in the room. You can add movement and color with floral patterns.

2. Rest with Greens

Bring the outdoors inside with a cool, calming color like green! Green is an unexpected but wonderful choice for a bedroom with style. The psychology of green brings happiness to those in the room, something we all could use right now. A happy bedroom at the end of a hard day is just what the doctor ordered and can lower your stress levels.

You can go with a green field by choosing a bold, vivid green for your wall choice. Some find it too energizing for a good night’s sleep. So be sure to test the color out before committing to it. If you still want green, try pale. It’s a regular choice for nurseries, so why not carry it into adulthood?

3. Pale Shades of Calm

Vivid bedrooms are mostly out of style, giving way for the pale shades. Relaxation comes easily with walls of lavender, pale blue, light yellow and barely green. The pale colors pull in calmness without being bland & blah. Also, pale colors create a room that feels bigger than in reality, and matches well with many other colors. It’s simple elegance you can live & relax in.

4.  Passionate for Purple

Purple is back. It’s in vogue in all forms when it comes to bedrooms. Lilac has been chosen more often than the more bold, bright plum. However, deep dues can be very romantic on bedroom walls. You can dress this color up or down with silver or gold accessories and textiles for a royal look in your bedroom. Light looks will take the color up a notch and give an airy feel. Paired with deeper colors, the room can look made for a royal king and queen.

5. Grays Can Help Take You Away

Gray is the new neutral. Long gone is beige and stark white is out. Go with gorgeous grays to help create a relaxing feel. This modern color is a great base to create a pulled together room. Gray has replaced white as a staple color, it can be barely there or deeply dark.

6. Pinks can be Pleasing

Avoid girly and be a grown up. Dusty rose is all over the social media boards as a wall color option for grown up girls. Pair it with green for an outdoor inspired room, or put in a cream hue to dress it up. Pink in various versions has taken over the bedroom color palettes. Our recommendation: avoid millennial pink. It’s a bright tone that is overpowering and more likely than not, will fall out of style quickly.
