To ask how you’d decorate your bedroom around this bed?

About a year ago I chose this bed for my bedroom, not really thinking about how hard it would be to decorate a bedroom around it. But, it’s what I’m stuck with. I have the light pink walls at the moment, which almost look like bare plaster. But I really want to make a change. Just not entirely sure what colour would be best?!

All furniture is light wood. I can get new bedding - I currently have an orange checkerboard set on and I quite like the contrast of the blue and orange. But any tips are welcome!

I think the walls are calling for warmth - orange or terracotta. Think of a peacock feather colour scheme.

Use an AI tool (chat gpt / copilot) and upload photos of your whole room describing your style. Warm/ cosy vs modern. I’ve used it loads recently for colour and design ideas and there’ve been some great ideas.

No, I’m likely going to move it, and the window doesn’t have a curtain rail

I think the room will looks much nicer when you move it and the headboard will be shown off better by a plain wall behind it. A deep aqua colour could be lovely, and a white blind or curtains.
