1. Choose a calm colour palette.

Paint walls in a soothing shade such as soft, light grey. Paint trim a slightly darker colour for contrast or choose white for a crisp, fresh look. Try a very pale blue on the ceiling to create softness overhead.

Like to see a Bedroom Makeover for a master bedroom where space is limited!!! Unfortunately, some older homes have smaller rooms. Thanks.
