Nothing dulls the spirits more than a boring, dated bedroom design. That\u2019s why we couldn\u2019t wait to lift the spirits of this depressing bedroom with new colors and textures to make it sparkle with freshness.<\/p>\n

Color has a huge impact on mood and energy levels; and especially given the stresses of the past year, it\u2019s more important than ever to promote a healthful, stress-free atmosphere in all areas of your home \u2014 and most particularly, your bedroom. That\u2019s why we chose creamy off-white colors that create a soothing atmosphere of calm and relaxation, while opening up the space visually so it doesn\u2019t feel as stuffy and confined.<\/p>\n

\"Transforming<\/p>\n

We began our project with the most valuable tools for any DIY makeover \u2014 primer and a coat of paint. For this makeover, we chose KILZ 3\u00ae<\/sup> Premium Primer<\/a>, which did an amazing job of covering the old, drab olive-green paint and creating the perfect foundation for the new fresh white paint. KILZ 3 Premium Primer offers excellent adhesion and durability, allowing the new paint to glide on smoothly and adding to the longevity of your paint job.<\/p>\n

Next, we added a coat of KILZ\u00ae Tribute\u00ae<\/sup> Paint<\/a> in Collector’s White (TB-31)<\/a>. This is a creamy, barely-there white with subtle undertones of greige (gray\/beige) to take the brightness down a notch, making it ideal for reflecting the sunlight filtering in from the glass doors in this master bedroom.\u00a0Because of its cool undertones, we were able to use Collector\u2019s White throughout the entire bedroom, creating a soothing, gently glimmering sparkle without a hint of harshness.<\/p>\n

\"Transforming<\/p>\n

Our keynotes for this makeover were airy, simple, calm and relaxing, and we accomplished these with a streamlined Contemporary Swedish-Meets-Coastal California theme. For the focal point, we chose a modern four-poster bed in gray-toned brown natural wood. We added matching lacquered wood bedtables in a similar brown\/gray shade, styled in keeping with our Scandinavian\/Danish Modern theme.<\/p>\n

We kept the attractive, natural hardwood floor, but added a cozy off-white rug. Other furnishings and accessories \u2014 including an armchair, lamps and bedding \u2014 were chosen to reflect the creamy white of the walls.<\/p>\n

\"Transforming<\/p>\n

One interior designer\u2019s tip: Pillows and other textiles are a great, affordable way to underscore your design scheme. We choose plump, oversized woven natural-fiber pillows in shades to tone in with the rest of the room, with handcrafted touches such as pom-poms and fringe. We finished the look with two attractive white ceramic lamps, styled in the Danish Modern tradition and topped with pale ecru linen shades.<\/p>\n

The overall look is one of natural textures \u2014 crisp linens and woven cottons \u2014 giving this master bedroom a clean, fresh, inviting look of soothing freshness.\u00a0When coupled with the bright sunlight filtering in from the glass doors, the impression is of a gleaming, glistening oasis for rest and relaxation \u2014 the kind of\u00a0ambience you would look for\u00a0in a luxury spa or hotel. And with quality primer and paint, the good news is that this pristine, fresh clean look can be easy to maintain as well.<\/p>\n

\"Transforming<\/p>\n

Anyone can achieve a room transformation like this at an affordable price. The key is to choose colors that reflect the mood and ambience you want to create \u2014 whether it\u2019s light and airy or warm and nostalgic. That\u2019s why paint and primer are your greatest tools in any DIY makeover. They\u2019re not only affordable, but they\u2019re also so easy to apply that even a newbie can do it without any help, and with spectacular results.<\/p>\n

\"Transforming<\/p>\n

With primer and a coat of paint, you can transform a dull, outdated room into a showplace. The primer will enhance all your painted surfaces, while protecting them from\u00a0household dust, dirt and mildew. Likewise, a fresh coat of paint will lift a room into\u00a0a new dimension of beauty and vibrancy. Just add a few pieces of furniture and accessories within your budget \u2014 and voila! You\u2019ve created an affordable, elegant room makeover that will stimulate your sense of color and beauty, while relaxing your mind and spirits.<\/p>\n
