Mmm, paint: The bedroom

I've been getting suggestions from [livejournal.com profile] rbowspryte, who is a l33t artiste, on painting the bedroom.

My comforter is a lovely iridescent blue/pink/purple, with a rose underside and a matching purple throw. My dresser is painted a blue selected to match the blue the comforter iridesces, and the front will eventually be covered with a decoupage involving cherry blossoms. My sheets themselves are either a plum, a grey, or a violet.

I've put up a gallery with the three paint options I'm currently looking at with [livejournal.com profile] rbowspryte's input. The little table is the exact colour of my dresser (Mysteria). If you're REALLY bored and want to mess around and make your own sample bedrooms, you can do so by going to www.behr.com, picking "explore color" and then "start color smart."

[Poll #664674]

I am feeling cautiously excited. Hopefully the lease signing tonight will go well and I will love the place as much as I did on Saturday/Sunday.

lostsilver has a subtle paleness that I don't think one would want in a bedroom (comparitively). Brazilchamois might look nice, except that you've already got some contrasting furniture...

lostmoon feels softer than lostsilver... more inviting...
Personally... softer bedrooms make me happy... getting invited to bedrooms makes me even happier.

They're all far too light for my taste so I can't say as to I really *like* any of them. But given the general look you're going for I can't really suggest anything as it is simply not my taste. Also, I tend to have a hard time judging how colors will look from those sample-rooms. I like to take paint chips home though :) (Though even then I have been suprized - I picked the lightest possible blue I could get for the hallway, thinking it would be white with just a hint of blue... but it in fact looks distinctly blue!)
