Redecorating bedroom with fitted wardrobes - help!

Jessica Down
7 anni fa
I have just moved back to my rented house in London and have asked the landlord for a budget to re-do my bedroom! At the moment the door and wardrobes / tables are a sort of magnolia while the walls are an off-White but it's such a beautiful room and I think it could look so much better but I have no idea what colours would do it justice. I was thinking of a light grey but just need some tips! We won't be able to get Farrow and Ball or anything but a couple of nice Dulux colours would be well within budget! Also the curtains are dark purple but I am thinking of replacing them if they don't go. I hope someone can help - totally clueless over here!

    We went for this! It's Dulux iced frappe. New bed with headboard on its way and we still need to do 2nd coat and redo the White and ceilings and were thinking of whitewashing the floors..? What do you think?

      There's quite a lot of painting involved in those cupboards! Instead, I'd paint the walls, add a headboard (something contemporary) change the wardrobe knobs and put in nice floor length curtains.....

      Yes I agree I wouldn't paint all those wardrobes unless you are totally committed and have the time and energy, I would paint the walls, you could go for the grey you liked and add a head board, new linen, cushions, I would put a Roman blind in a beautiful fabric to maximise the spacious look of the room. Take a look at my website and contact me if you need any further advice, products or colour choices, that's my job! Good luck keep us posted!

      We're all for a bit of hard work, and would definitely paint the cupboards. You are right not to use F&B, it's an inferior paint compared to dulux, and not correct for your purposes, being Eggshell finish. Dulux Trade Satinwood is far better, gives a better finish and is hardwearing. ( It's also more expensive than F&B i'm afraid, but you get what you pay for ).

      I'd paint the cupboards in a pale grey and replace the knobs. Give the area behind the bed a good dark grey finish, to help with making your choice of headboard really stand out.

      A quick rough paint idea using Dulux Night Jewels 2 and 6

      Thank you all so much for your help! The wardrobes need a good lick of paint anyhow so I'm happy to put the time in :). Hadn't thought about new headboard but will definitely add it to the list. And thank you so much for the edited drawing - how do you do that?! Jessica

      Hey Jessica we would recommend you use a soft neutral but make sure its on the colour spectrum of grey eg a green grey or a beige grey otherwise grey itself can be very cold. Paint the cupboards a lovely fresh white and get curtains in the same white to open up the space, the grey colour on the wall and if a hardboard isn't in the budget definitely some artwork above the bed.

      Good luck!

      I would definitely recommend looking at dulux paints, we used Night Jewels 5 which was quite a light grey but in a darker room it looks quite dark

      Great job, Jessica! It looks very classy and whitewashing the floors will make the space even better!

      Hi

      You could have a faux leather feature wall (headboard)
