Bedroom Painting Ideas
A beautiful house speaks in volumes for its owner, may be that's the reason people try to keep their homes as presentable as possible. One room of your house, which is most often ignored when it comes to presentable home, is the bedroom. Some people try to keep bedroom decoration a private affair, while some treat it as just another room in the house. Bedroom decorating gives the bedroom an elegant feeling, which you may like to experience with all those intimate thoughts in your mind.
Choosing the Color Scheme
Interior painting ideas most often stress on determining the color scheme for the room after taking the furniture, accessories and window treatments into consideration - the same rule applies when it comes to bedroom painting. When you plan to move into a new house or build a new house buy all the accessories you plan to own before you start painting.
Ideally, you can get into touch with the paint dealer to choose the complementing color chips for your bedroom. Observe these color chips in broad daylight as well as at night. This will give you a rough idea of how your bedroom will look like after painting. If you are still confused, test the color on the walls of your bedroom before finalizing it.
Window Trim Color
Whether you want to color the window trims with the same color or not is your personal choice. Ideally, you can choose to color the window trims with same color, when you find them unattractive, in order to disguise the unattractiveness. If you want to create a uniform look for your bedroom, you may have to color the trims with same color. If you don't want to disguise the trim, you can use light or dark color to highlight the trim work.
Color Shades
You can use more than one color while painting your bedroom, but you have to ensure that both the colors you choose compliment each other. Painting the lower portion of the walls of the bedroom with a darker color will give an open airy look to your bedroom. Painting the bedroom in this fashion allows the lighter color to dominate, and thus gives an open look to the room. More importantly, it is wiser to choose colors a shade lighter than what you want, because most of the colors appear to be dark when applied over a large surface area. The appearance of the color also depends on the surrounding colors and the lighting arrangement of the room.
Ceiling Color
More than often, bedroom ceiling is painted white or off-white, which creates an illusion of more open space by making it appear as if ceilings are higher. Medium or dark coloring of ceiling works exactly opposite and gives a feeling as if the ceilings are relatively low. If the ceiling of your bedroom is higher than normal, then you can paint it with medium or dark colors. This will give the bedroom a cozy look. Trying this in a bedroom with a ceiling of normal height will give the room a congested appearance. You can also opt for a large square on the ceiling with an all-together different color - this will give it an impression of a tray ceiling.
Remember that the tips mentioned above will also depend on the furniture and the lighting arrangement of your bedroom - and the combination of all these things will add that elegance to your bedroom.
