Stuck with a blue bed and I'm struggling to decorate around it - I've swatched these 3 colours and made a little collage to show what it will look like Grin

Help please! The lodestone shade would be for the other walls potentially so ignore that.

Take a sample of the fabric. Go to a larger B&Q. Find the Valspar paint section. Identify your bed colour in the swatches then use that swatch to select a complementary colour from the range.

I like dance Hall but then blues are my favourite colours.i disagree about the feature wall being passe. Too much lodestone would be dreary but all blue would be too dark and a bit cold. We'll that's my tuppence worth anyway

AC1 definitely is safe and nice. Green smoke is the most... current for want of a better word.

I'm always in the go bolder rather than safe camp if you are going to use colour. What colour is the flooring though? That's probably more important than the bed.

You could just change the headboard? Or cover it with fabric (staple it on) or drape throws (nice ones) over it.

I think I would want to go for something really pale and light, and then bright in some other colours with richly coloured accessories - so either a white, or a pale cream or even maybe a pale pink. You could then have brightly coloured accessories in orange or pink (or orange and pink) and they'd emphasise the bed without trying to camouflage it.

I don't like any of them (sorry) but lodestone is the best with the bed imo

Definitely lodestone or green smoke I would go with a warmer tone not another cooler/blue tone. Plus too many blues could be too much. I would pull out the head board blue in other textile elements elsewhere in the room!
