3. Lavender – Edward Bulmer
This striking smokey mauve from Edward Bulmer creates a pretty and charming bedroom fit for a girl, especially in a monochromatic scheme. Our painters and decorators recommend pairing this paint colour and adding a statement wall with the Aesop's Fables wallpaper by Sanderson. Create a magical and dreamy environment with this timeless, dusky shade.
4. First Dawn – Dulux UK
One of our favourite colours due to its versatility, portrayal, and meaning. This gorgeous sky-like blue from Dulux is called First Dawn and is the perfect shade and paint colour for a children’s bedroom. Build an environment that is relaxing, tranquil, and gentle for your little one, while splendidly working with the lighting. First Dawn is definitely one of the picks for an enchanting bedroom.
5. Fruit Shake – Benjamin Moore
Fruit Shake is that extraordinary shade which illuminates the space with its soft, gentle feminine energy. Create a pleasantly pink and positive environment with this creamy shade, not too bright and not overly saturated, just right! Pink is a cheerful and charming colour full of compassion.
