What Does Your Bedroom Wall Color Say About You?

White is a popular choice of wall color for the main reason that you can decorate it with any other color and make it work. You can add multiple pops of color with white walls and still keep it look minimal, clean but also have room to experiment with other shades in your bedding and decor. 

Having white walls will keep you glued to your bed more often. 

Beige or Tan

Beige is a shade that is warmer than brown and still keeps the light air of white together to create beige. A neutral color choice that can still go with multiple types of colors but also keeping it simple just like White would.

Neutral shades like beige go in and out of style so there's never a real need to change your wall color too soon since it can be worked with. 

Gold

Gold is a shade that will show off wealth and money, especially in a bedroom. This shade is linked back to King and Queen royalty family trees to show off their power in gold opulence decor.

Green (Light & Dark)

Green is a shade that is linked to naturalistic elements which can help you feel at peace and calm once waking up.

Purple (Light & Dark)

 Depending on the shade of purple, from light to dark, it represents a sense of creativity and luxury within the bedroom, which can decrease in sleep because of how bright or vivid the shade can be to the eyes. Purple is still a great shade to promote your creativity.

Black or Dark Brown

Such a dark shade like Black can make the bedroom feel a lot smaller than it actually is, as well as making you feel smaller and isolated. Since it is a darker color, it doesn't feel like there is a whole lot of open space, therefore you may feel claustrophobic or closed in.

Pairing a dark bedroom with bright color bedding and decor will help open it up a lot more then blending the room in with even more dark colored decor. 

Yellow

Red

Red is an inviting color to choose for your walls since it is bright and vibrant, keeping the atmosphere in your room lively. Red is a bold color choice depending on the type of room that it is in, when in the bedroom, it would look great combined with parts of white on the walls and part red to even the boldness out.
