What colour is your bedroom? I'm thinking about doing some painting today but can't decide. I'm thinking about a really dark purple or navy blue. I have a range of different linens so I'm not looking to match anything in particular. Please no white/beige/neutral replies! I hate neutral and our house is currently a range of different colours.

Soft kitty, warm kitty, little ball of fur.
a bright minty/apple green. I also loathe neutrals, and this is light without being boring. Please exscuse the terrible lighting.

Under everything, just another human being
I have a lovely green called "simply sage". I like a calming colour in bedrooms, and nothing too dark which can make a room feel small.

The main bedroom in my old house was painted a blue similar to this and it was gorgeous! I'm thinking of doing the same in my current house! From here.

I like green too and that was my original choice for the main bedroom but I have a light (probably a little bit too light) lilac colour for the wall behind my bed.

Prussian Blue A lovely deep smooth dark blue. We have it as a feature wall in all of our bedrooms because I love it so much!
