Bedroom Paint Ideas With a Chocolate Brown Theme

White walls contrast nicely with brown bedding.

Bedroom color palettes incorporating chocolate browns are delightfully scrumptious. Rich, dark chocolate browns precipitate a feeling of warmth, coziness and security. Pairing chocolate brown with shades of blue, white, green or yellow creates stunning bedroom styles to suit any decor. Color preferences in furniture, bedding ensembles, accessories, window treatments and lighting determine a wall paint color that will complement your chocolate brown theme.

Brown and White

A brown and white color palette is simplistic and timeless. Paint one bedroom wall a milk-chocolate brown and the remaining walls a soft, creamy white. A white fabric headboard positioned against the brown accent wall provides a pleasing contrast. Layer the bedding with a brown bed skirt, luxurious white comforter, assorted brown and white toss pillows and a brown throw. Drape the windows in cascading chocolate brown curtains. Black furniture pieces are ideal for this color theme.

Blue and Brown

Muted sky blue combined with chocolate brown creates a soothing color palette. Paint bedroom walls a muted sky blue, providing a relaxing background for furniture and accessories. A brown leather headboard is a striking contrast against soothing blue walls. Outfit your bed with a shimmery beige-and-white patterned comforter topped with white and beige throw pillows. Blue walls will show off rich brown bedroom furniture and brown framed pictures. Cover windows in lightweight brown draperies, providing balance to blue walls.

Green and Brown

A color palette that includes sage green and chocolate brown brings nature into your bedroom. Paint an accent wall in sage green with the remaining walls a soft beige. Cover your bed in a plush, white comforter against a chocolate brown wooden headboard positioned against the green accent wall. Top the white comforter with assorted toss pillows incorporating flower, foliage or tree patterns. Place a chocolate brown throw at the foot of the bed. Woven grass blinds for windows and wood furniture pieces in chocolate browns enhance this bedroom's earthy ambience.

Yellow and Brown

Pairing golden yellow with chocolate brown develops a color scheme resembling a Tuscan villa. Faux paint all bedroom walls and ceiling in a rich, golden yellow, to look like old Venetian plaster. Add brown wooden beams on the ceiling and shutters on the windows, enhancing the Tuscan feel. A grand, dark chocolate brown headboard and foot board provide contrasting depth and elegant character. Place a creamy ivory comforter on the bed and top with brown, yellow and orange toss pillows. Set a large potted fern or ficus tree in a corner. Chocolate brown distressed furniture is ideal for this design.
