Colourful Bedrooms

While clearing some archives today, I found these lovely images of colourful bedrooms. These are my inspirations, that I wish to share.

I have forever wanted to colour atleast one wall in my bedroom. However, after years and years of hunting for the perfect colours, the walls still remain a neutral cream-ish colour. This is only because I love to change the curtains and the bedcovers... which means... the colours in my house change atleast four time in a year.

So... still hunting for the perfect bedroom colours.... here are my inspirations - I think these pics must be from the Asian Paints website!! Although I must admit, I dont remember!

This one, I like in particular. The wall colour is dark, but the bright yellow compliments it. And the bedcover is an absolute contrast as well. I admire people who experiment with colours. If your bedroom is as colourful as these, please share the image with me - torresp27@hotmail.com. This might just inspire me to paint atleast one wall!!

  3. I loved them all. I guess it also depends on where you live. Like in tropical and mediterranean countries, you could definitely paint your walls really bright, but if you live in a gloomy gray place, It might not be advisable to paint the walls really bright, as there will be lack of light. However, you could choose a color that is a little muted down, and still can be vibrant.

  4. Patricia, ditto for me! I have always wanted to do this too. In fact, when I met my co-blogger Rekha, and saw her painted and "artified" wall in her home, I mentioned that I would like to do this in my own home too.

    Thanks for sharing. They serve as inspiration for me too...and when I dare to paint one of my walls, I'll certainly let you know :)

  8. Pat, I had a deep maroonish pink wall in my room which lasted 3 yrs, and now that I was bored, just changed it to the standard neutral color- "Cream" last week. But I do have a patterned bright red wall in my living though.

  11. The first one is so soothing. I'm a big fan of blues in the bedroom. I love that there are two different blues on the walls and all the wood.

  14. Thanks very much for visiting my blog :-)
    The wallcolours....I really understand you, I am always in the mood to change from time to time the wallcolour, but it´s easier for me do this in my little shop than in our home...actually I am obsessed by darker shades, it works because we have white painted wodden floor in our home...but every time I am going to Morocco, it could happen that I fell in love with another colour, probably....;-)

  15. Hi Patricia!
    Great post, amazing colours! Many years ago (when we got married...), we had an appartment with different colours on each room. In the longer term it proved a bit tiring, so when we moved we had everything white. Not very creative, I agree... ;))
    Thanks for your comments at Blogtrotter, which now has Akbar’s capital city for you. Enjoy and have a great weekend!
