How to match with furniture?
If the room is decorated in shades of gray, it is very easy to choose furniture for it. There are many options here, and any of them can be beaten, taking into account the general style and all the design elements.
Many people prefer to decorate the bedroom exclusively in light colors. In this case, white furniture, milky, cream shades are suitable for gray wall decoration. A light beige color and the same gray shades will look good. But then you still need to look for accents. And curtains will just help with this.
If the walls are gray, and the furniture is white or beige, you can choose curtains of one of these shades, but there is an option to use other colors, for example, blue, mint, blue, turquoise, pale pink, while not forgetting to find a second object of the same shade - the same pillows or blanket.
With a gray wall decoration, darker furniture, chocolate and even black colors, will also look good. Then the choice of curtains can be in the tone of furniture, walls or any shades that fit the overall concept. It all depends on personal preference. And in this context, both orange and green curtains will be appropriate. And if there are lamps of the same color palette on the walls or a chandelier on the ceiling, this choice will be very useful.
It is worth considering another moment that the curtains can be with a pattern, barely noticeable or brighter. These views are also good. But in this case, it would be nice if one of the walls repeated the pattern of the curtains. Then you can choose between light and dark furniture, but without overly elaborate details.
