Need some colour scheme ideas for bedroom?


Question:I have a room in the basement of my house, thus there isnt much natural light, i cant seem to find ideas for the colour shemes for the walls, i am open for all ideas. I want the room to look more spacious and lively.

Answers:
go to a paint store and look at color samples~ they will either have little color chips or a book that looks like this

p.s. dark colors will make the room look smaller..


I think lighter color themes would be better as to utilize the little natural light. with some indoor plants.

Try a light orange or yellow in a matte finish [ glare will make it look shiny ].
1] Add some wall art - paintings, pictures, posters framed in similar materials. Any other wall decor such as tapestries, sconces would be good.
2] Furniture in unified woods and not too much of it - you need a bed, dresser, night table - think before you add to the mix.
3] a print that has a little or a lot of the wall color for bed, windows
4] use a second color from the print for lamps, pillows, vases
and other accessories
5] Add one or two large potted plants [ fake if not enough light ].
6] Try a large mirror on the wall without windows.
7] add a rug that matches or coordinates
I suggest yellows, oranges these colors will bring in light and make the rooms appear bigger.
