... too much, or go for it?
I have wanted to decorate my bedroom for ages, but can't decide on a colour. I've been through all the neutrals - it is currently a sort of creamy beige off white - had moss green in the past, tried darker feature walls, and had a deep red wallpaper at one stage - all sorts.
I rearranged it last weekend, completely changed the configuration and removed two large items of furniture and got rid of some other clutter, so it looks bigger now, but very bland and cold with the 'magnolia-ish' walls. Also I recently decoupaged a chest of drawers and a dressing table and if I do say so myself they look fab, but just don't 'pop' against the bland wall colour.
I have nothing in my room that will 'clash' with anything. I have lots of different bedding and throws, of various hues, so can change that easily, there is a wooden venetetian blind at the window and I have stripped floorboard floor- no rugs.
I want a colour that will make the now fairly sparse furnishings 'pop' and I remember a friend once painting her lounge in this mustard/honey type colour and loving the shade, so I'm wondering if it might work in my bedroom. I do not want 'yellow' - I want a proper mustardy colour - darker rather than lighter, but I'm wondering if it will be too much?
I want to paint all four walls - no feature wall (which I've tried in the past and it just doesn't suit the shape and size of the room) and the skirting and door frame etc would be white.
Attached is the sort of shade I am thinking of and would appreciate any thoughts?
