Amazing Creative Ways To Paint Boring Bedroom Walls

By Max Rossi, ARTCENTRON

Does your bedroom look dreadfully boring? One way to liven the space without replacing every piece of furniture is to experiment with paint. Consider these five creative ways to paint boring bedroom walls!

Add Dimension by Painting Swirls in Textured Paint

The texture is a vital component to adding depth and interest to bedrooms, living rooms, and backyards. Without texture, spaces feel flat and bland.

Fortunately, you can stimulate your mind and revamp your room by painting the walls in a swirled pattern. Choose the desired color in textured paint. The thick product will make it easy to apply and create the texture you desire.

Create swirls using a wide brush and loop the design around. Start at the top of the wall and work in straight-lined sections.

Paint a Striped Feature Wall

Stripes are easy for even beginner painters. It’s a great method when you want to add interest but want something that’s DIY friendly.

Vertical stripes make a room feel taller, while horizontal stripes make a room look longer. Consider the shape and style of your bedroom to determine which style of stripes will suit the room best.

Start by painting a few coats of lighter color onto the entire wall. Wait for the paint to fully dry.

After a few days, take the painter’s tape and create even lines across the wall. Start painting darker accent colors in the proper places. Once the wall is completely dry, remove the tape for a satisfying finish.

Add an Upper Border That Matches the Ceiling

Bedrooms can feel cramped and cluttered. The right painting technique can transform the feeling of the space.

A small room can feel bigger with a simple change. Paint a border about one foot below the ceiling line. The border color should be the same as the ceiling, even if the ceiling color isn’t white.

If you want to try something exhilarating, experiment with two tones of the same color. Perhaps you have olive green walls and want to add a border and ceiling painted in sage green. The contrasting shades will add dimension and elongate the space.

Paint Around Various Elements in the Bedroom

Mirrors, shelves, bed frames, and dressers are each unique in their own way. If the walls feel too boring, a creative way to add life to the room is to accentuate these elements with paint.

Paint an arch around the headboard. Use a template to add depth around the wall-mounted mirror. Add flowers growing out of the baseboards.

Create a Feature Wall With Abstract Art

Perhaps you don’t have a clear vision for your bedroom walls. Abstract art is a contemporary style that possesses unlimited possibilities.

First, choose a solid paint color that will suit each wall and match the room. Then, start painting the feature wall! Let your creativity blossom, and paint whatever your heart desires. Before you know it, you’ll have a final product that livens the space and feels true to yourself.

When you have a creative vision that you aren’t sure you can achieve on your own, seek the help of a professional painting company. A key tip to choosing the right painting company is to ask them several questions before agreeing to the service. Ensure they can replicate your vision and create a gorgeously painted bedroom that’s anything but boring.
