Thinking about decorating your room in blue and white? This color union is a match mirrored in the sky and clouds, the snowy mountains, the ocean and breaker waves. Perhaps this sympathy with nature is why blue and white decorating schemes have always been popular.

Blue is a color theme, and it sounds as if you have enough of a variety in the different shades of the color. The living room suite is denim blue, but look at the shades in the design on the fabric: mauve, purple, blue. Assuming the curtains are another shade of blue, and that there’s some variety in the blues of the “what-nots,” you’ve got a theme going right here.

In a room that’s quite as busy as this one, choosing white as a background colour and for furniture and accessories will simplify and streamline the space. Add warmth simply with colourful blinds or cushions. Billy bookcases, Ikea

Whitewashed floorboards will instantly brighten a space; buy yours with this look, or give old boards a makeover with emulsion paint, brushed on lightly and wiped off, and clear varnish. White brushed pine planks, Quick-Step

If you’re sticking faithfully to an all white scheme, how do you decorate the walls? The answer is to frame black and white photos or prints in white frames. Grouping the frames makes a focal point. Room by The White Company

There are practical considerations when furnishing with white. Always, always get removeable furniture covers that can be machine washed. That way, your room will always be crisp – easily. Parchment Flowers collection, Sanderson

Even a plain room can be given bags of character with wall panelling – which you can buy in kits from DIY stores (or just use tongue and groove planks, fixed to battens). Painted white, or off white, completes it. Blinds by Hillarys

Color decorating ideas, to me, are just that: ideas to be played with. Through experimentation you will soon learn that, yes you can use deep plum on one wall and a deep pink on the other three walls, with a terracotta carpet to finish. With white for the ceiling, coving, fitted furniture and door, the room acquires a warm, welcoming ambience that is a delight to enter. Take other color decorating ideas to achieve a different ethos: four walls decorated in mint green, with white ceiling and coving and doorway and a cream carpet. Enter this room and you are enfolded in a sense of total calm and harmony that is almost soporific. The only accent in this room is three long mirrors laid horizontally along the back wall. Nothing else, but the room speaks volumes in holistic tranquility. Now, if I were to ask you to imagine this mint green room as described and then leave the room. Imagine closing the door behind you. Next time you enter that room a black vase has been placed on a bedside table. Inside that black vase is a single red flower. At the window is a set of cherry red blinds. The bed is now made up with a black duvet cover and a cherry red bed throw at the end of the bed. The color decorating ideas have not changed but the accessories have – and so has the ethos of the room. Gone is that soporific element of tranquility: this has been replaced by a sense of modern chic. All that has altered are the accessories. This is how you take the basic principles of color decorating ideas and alter them slightly to achieve alternative moods for each room. When you understand the rules, color decorating ideas can become fun and successful and never something to shy away from.

Home Decorating based on your Color Personality

Confused about selecting color for your home? Why not try choosing decorating colors based on your unique personality? I decided to have a bit of fun and searched out several websites that discuss color personality types.

The Pratt and Lambert color quiz was the most comprehensive color personality test of all those I reviewed. Taking into account not only color likes but other factors that make you uniquely you. This test was the only one that returned a color scheme that was very similar to my personal decorating style. I was impressed. According to the Pratt & Lambert site my color personality: [Read more →]

Old sheets, linens, or clothing could be patch-worked together to create a shabby-chic shower curtain like the one above.

We don’t all have the space for a luxurious chaise in the bathroom, but even a chair can provide a little glamor.

Try and collect items within a color palette you decide on – or based on what you have the most of already, and the clutter won’t look so chaotic, but cute. For example, all the kitchen wares in the above pictures are pastels, and therefore, even when things aren’t put away, the chaos looks intentional.
