Bedroom Paint Colors

Posted by Cate Griffing on March 19th, 2020

A bedroom is a place for relaxation. It's where you go to escape the day and have a restful night's sleep. But are you getting a good night's sleep? Of course, there are ways you can improve it. One of the easiest and most impactful ways is the paint color of your room.

Paint colors can play a major role in how a space makes you feel. For example, a bright yellow room may make you feel happy and energized and a muted tan room may make you feel a little bland. That being said, what are the best paint colors to use in your bedroom?

Blue paint colors are considered to be the most calming paint colors. They are soothing and promote a relaxed environment. The absolute perfect paint color for a bedroom.

The Best Blue Paint Colors for Bedrooms

1. Sherwin Williams Rock Candy

Rock Candy is a beautiful light Blue-gray paint color. It has a lovely mix of blue and gray but it does lean a tad more on the gray side. The reason this is an amazing bedroom color is that its so light and it is not overwhelmingly blue. Rock Candy is a relaxing paint color that will allow you to have a restful night's sleep.

2. Sherwin Williams Upward

Upward is another gorgeous blue-gray paint color for a bedroom. This color is more on the blue side. It can also be considered a dusty or slate blue. Upward is more of a mid-toned blue but not too dark. It's the perfect paint color to promote relaxation.

3.Benjamin Moore Beacon Gray

Do not let its name fool you, Beacon Gray is a gorgeous gray with blue in it. This neutral blue is on the lighter side. It has just the right amount of blue in it to consider it a blue-gray paint color. Another extraordinary bedroom paint color.

4.Benjamin Moore Slate Blue

Slate blue is exactly as you would imagine it to be. Ths gorgeous blue has a touch of gray in it which gives it the appearance of slate. Its a bit darker than the other paint colors I have mentioned yet it still works wonderfully in a bedroom. Slate Blue is an ideal paint color to promote a calming environment.

In my opinion, blue-gray paint colors are the best options for bedrooms. The mixture of the blue and the gray allows the color to stay on the neutral side without going too blue. 

If you want a restful night's sleep, and you are bored with neutral paint colors like Edgecomb Gray,   I suggest checking out one of these gorgeous blue gray paint colors.
