Relaxing Bedroom Paint Colors

Selecting a color for your bedroom painting project can be overwhelming. We have rounded up a few popular picks for bedrooms that customers in our service area have had us paint in the last year. This list is focused on relaxing and calm colors.

The size of the bedroom is a factor to consider when selecting a paint color. Larger sized master suites may have more options that look good than smaller rooms. Master bedrooms often also include closets and bathrooms where multi-color schemes come into play. The colors don’t have to be the same, but they should compliment each other.

Neutral

Neutral colors are the most common types for bedrooms in Wisconsin. Top picks for neutral colors in Madison, WI last year were beige, and light gray (pictured below). White molding and trim works well with most neutral colors.

Brights

If you’re looking to break out of neutral, start with a color that speaks to you. Bedrooms with green palates work well and give a warmth to the room. Even more bold in the bright category is red, which can be a tricky color to paint with but has some amazing results. Red paints usually require several coats and may cost more.

Pastels

Soothing pastels will always be a popular choice for bedrooms. Light blue, soft yellow, and lavender are top choices in the pastel color family. They match nearly any style of furniture and work well for several rooms in the same palette.

Deep tones

There are no rules for choosing master suite colors. If you dream of a deep brown or navy blue room, do it. The dark colors help keep the room dark and cool for rest. It can help those who work night shifts calm and sleep during the day. Artwork and textiles will stand out against this dark background. Even black isn’t off the table in your bedroom. Use it sparingly or the room can seem tiny. As an accent wall paired with metallics, it’s a winning combination.

Follow what your style leads you to and you are sure to find great colors to paint a bedroom, master or guest.
