The painters are coming today...I'm a little nervous-UPDATE-

typically I find an item or piece of art or fabric for my "vision" before i paint a room. Our new guest suite has sort of been DHs project & he really loves the green family (which ties in beautifully with the brand new bathroom in the room)for the bedroom so we decided on
Bay Laurel (on the bottom right) for the ceiling
Spanish moss for three of the walls(on the lower left)

and chocolate(the darkest color) for the accent wall

with this floor

and super white trim

its a large room with lots of natural light.

I like his choices, I'm not sure if I love them. I wish I had the bedding or something else picked out already. I'm off to work today & hopefully the painters will have most of it done when I get home! I'll be back with pics!


UPDATE- No pics yet because they need to come back one more day but
I think this will be the area rug for the room!!!!Chat Icon

i love those colors! since you're room has lots of light it won't seem dark, which is the only thing i'd be concerned about.

the colors are beautiful though! i wish i could use them, but we don't get great light

I think the color choices are beautiful... but I think I would go with white on the ceiling. I think the light green color could make the room look dark. That said, it could also make the room feel really nice and cozy.

OMG I love those colors Kelly! Just beautiful. That was my wedding color scheme. Chat Icon I can't wait to see pics of this room. Don't worry, once you get some decor and bedding in there, you are probably going to love it. To bring that bright white trim out even more, I would buy a couple of white decor pieces for the room. I think it would look great. GL!

ETA: Found some inspiring pics of bedrooms. You can really have some fun with these colors. HTH make you feel better about the colors and not having bedding yet.Chat Icon (these are just from a Google search "green+brown bedrooms").

Great colors! I am curious to hear what you think of the paint. I read not so good reviews on it, so when we painted our MB we got BM's match to RH's Silver Sage. Can't wait to see pics - it's going to look awesome!Chat Icon Chat Icon Chat Icon
