what colour to paint bedroom?

[kate0195]

I am about to move into my back garage (been fixed up!) which is quite big. I have a big blue mat which will be on the floor. I am thinking of ideas for colours to paint the walls? I am female, 20 years old, dont want red (done that), thinking maybe a blue to compliment the mat but not sure what shade, and if it is too much of a cold colour.Ideas?Thanks

Something soothing and comfortable. Blues can be nice, neutrals are good too, and they go well with blue. Try to stay away from bright colors that are alarming rather than relaxing. Another fun idea is to do the walls in different colors, or to faux paint one or more of them. The added dimension could be just the boost you are looking for. Don't be afraid to try faux painting yourself. It is really easy and a lot of fun. Besides it is your wall, only you will know how many coats you really used : )

Honey gold You dont want to go with a bold blue. Look into a gray or maybe a periwinkle blue..
