Neutral Bedding Looks (That Aren't Boring)
Bring neutral hues to the bedroom with sheets, blankets, bedding, furniture, and accents in versatile, subtle shades. Beyond paint and carpets, your bedding offers the biggest impact when it comes to experimenting with colors. Neutrals are perfect because they coordinate with almost any wall color—if you keep a few things in mind. Check out our decor tips and learn how to build a neutral bedding look that is anything but boring.
Warm Neutrals Versus Cool Neutrals
When choosing neutral hues that go well together, consider the type of neutral you prefer and what pairs well with your furniture and wall color. Generally, neutral colors are split into warm or cool types.
- Warm neutrals feature undertones of red, yellow, orange, or pink. These include rosy beiges, buttery yellow-whites, sandy tans, or creamy ivories.
- Cool neutrals offer gray, green, purple, or blue undertones. Consider dreamy violet-gray or bluish slate to bring cool neutrals into your space.
