- Inspiration for my palette:
- The arrangement and application of the color palette was inspired by a sample bedroom I saw in a Benjamin Moore book. I choose to build my palette around Smokey Blue because the grey undertones are very soothing and worked with the tranquil feel I was going for in the bedroom.
- Colors used in my room
- Behr Paints:
Walls - Smokey Blue
Ceiling - Spartan Stone
Ceiling Beams & Trim - Frost
Dark materials for furniture frames.
- Tips for using color successfully
- Don't ignore the ceiling. Even slightly tinting the ceiling paint can effect a major change when pulling together a boldly painted room.

What are those prints (?) with the red birds?
Hi Locris, they're original oil paintings that my husband and I bought when we were in Bali.
I like the colors and the furnishings and particularly the lamp.
I sense a calm feeling ,if I were to walk into this room. Good night's rest.
