Our bedrooms definitely need to be a place of rest and coziness, but when you think about it, the bedroom also needs to be a bit sexy. How can we achieve this? With color of course!

I’m diving right in with two colors that for me, are HOT, HOT, HOT! One is a deep, rich red, almost like a dark cherry yet still showing enough red without getting too dark.

And dark? Yes! I LOVE a mysterious, dark eggplant color for the bedroom. Nothing says sexy than a color that draws your eyes into the pigment of the wall so your imagination can go wild.

Steamy yet? Good! That was the idea! I painted, no pun intended, a very sexy feeling for the bedroom describing just two colors. Now the thing that I would NOT do is paint the ceiling and trim white. That would totally undo all the sexiness that these two colors created. Instead, try a color that is earthy and will let these colors be the main event in the room. Make your ceiling and trim disappear rather than standing out.
