"SKYLIGHT" BY FARROW & BALL

"I love this color for a bedroom, it can look fresh and clean with whites and grays or green accents. I also tend to pair it with rich chocolate brown accents when I am going for a moody look." —Liz Caan, Liz Caan & Co.

"NOSEGAY" BY BENJAMIN MOORE

"One of my favorite bedroom paint colors is Benjamin Moore's 'Nosegay.' The color sets a soft and dreamy tone in a bedroom. It feels happy yet calm, which is ideal for a space where clients are looking for comfort and come to wind down." —Gideon Mendelson, Mendelson Group

"SALON DRAB" BY FARROW & BALL

"It's very warm and sophisticated. I would describe it as a moody color that has a very calming effect. It works extremely well with gold picture frames and brass hardware. A good color to pair it with is 'Light Gray' by Farrow & Ball on all millwork." —Alexander Doherty, Alexander Doherty Design

"BLUEBERRY" BY BENJAMIN MOORE

"One of our favorite colors to paint bedrooms, especially kids rooms, is Blueberry by Benjamin Moore. Often times, we like to paint bedrooms dark colors and add light furniture to deceive the eye into thinking the room is both bigger and contains more natural light."—Caroline Grant, Dekar Design

"WHITE HERON" BY BENJAMIN MOORE

"I love this color. It’s a dreamy marshmallow white
that is crisp and fresh but with subtle warm undertones. We’ve used this color in country and city homes. The trick is to carry it through-out the spaces as the primary backdrop allowing for the art, textures and furnishings to pop." —Kevin Dumais

"AMAZING GRAY" BY SHERWIN WILLIAMS

"This is that perfect warm gray that changes with the light. It’s soothing and restful but far from boring."—Kelly Allen, MA Allen Interiors

"SKYLIGHT" BY FARROW & BALL

"This very pale blue gray looks gorgeous with white linen curtains to create a soothing, zen bedroom oasis."—Anne Hepfer

"ELEPHANT'S BREATH" BY FARROW & BALL

"I love using this shade because it has has a touch of dusky pink in the gray base, a very flattering but subtle color for bedrooms."—Katharine Pooley
