Beautiful Blue Bedrooms

Photo: Laurey W. Glenn

From navy to teal, blue bedrooms can be peaceful or bold. We gathered some of our favorites to inspire you to use blue.

Blue bedrooms can be subtle and calming, or bold and energetic. If you’re looking for a simple way to incorporate your favorite shade, try switching out accent pillows or the art in your bedroom. When putting together a creative space for the kids, don’t shy away from bold teals and turquoise colors. These blue shades pair well with fun lime greens and bright pinks. If you love a more classic look, light shades of blue are great for creating a soothing and relaxing space. For a fun but sophisticated blue bedroom, pair navy with white and a few bright accents. We’ve gathered our favorite blue bedrooms in every shade to help inspire you.
