Blue is one of the most popular bedroom colors used in decorating and has been for decades. A large part of its appeal is it comes in so many shades, from the palest, icy hues to brilliant jewel tones. Blue is also considered one of the most soothing colors, making it ideal for a bedroom. Our blue bedroom ideas will give you a great starting point for creating a beautiful retreat built around your favorite shade of blue - whether you opt for a serene sky blue or a bold cobalt hue.
A boy's room doesn't have to be baby blue. A deep, slate blue is far more sophisticated and grown up, particularly paired with a lighter grey. Use dark blue on one wall, then layer it on the bed in contrasting patterns such as stripes and checks. Light grey furniture eases the transition from white walls to the slate feature wall. When you have one dark wall, use it to highlight artwork or favorite memorabilia.
Blue is a popular color for nautical bedrooms. However, that color alone isn't enough to make the room feel like a seaside retreat.

If you love both blue and green, teal is an excellent way to have the best of both worlds. Because it can shift dramatically, use other colors sparingly.

That balance will help strike the proper tone and give you greater freedom in how and where you include pops of color.
This room proves that decorating a blue room doesn't have to mean being matchy-matchy.

Tie the two together with warm woods and woven accents.
