When it comes to decorating your bedroom, or any room in your home we all question our decorating skills. I have put together some “Trendy Tips on How to Mix Patterns”..
1. Color Plus White: The easiest way to mix patterns is to stick to one color plus white. White gives the eyes a place to rest and highlights.
2. Vary the Scale: Mix and Match small and large patterns. A good mix should include small, medium, and large scale patterns.
3. Use Shades and Tints: There’s no need to worry about matching when using various shades of a single color.
4. Use Coordinating colors: An easy way to ensure your patterns will mix is to choose coordinating colors. Red and greens are complementary colors because they are directly across from each other on the color wheel.
5. Mix types of Patterns: Cottage style has quintessential patterns that help define it. Plaid, Toil, and Country French floral can create a playful cottage style in any bedroom.
In the picture above they mixed floral and stripes and they are using shades of blue.
6. Anchor the Color Scheme: Start with one pattern and pull all the room’s accents colors from it.
