Charcoal or Hale Navy?
We're upgrading to a king size bed and I'm taking the opportunity to paint an accent wall.
Night stands and lamps are staying. We have a navy duvet cover already, and will likely keep the gray pillows.
We'll need new sheets. Haven't decided on a bed frame yet, but it will be upholstered, and I'm thinking gray or linen colored. And we'll need lightweight curtains at some point: likely white.
S already said no to a black as an accent, and no to white upholstery.
Thoughts??

I'd like a charcoal wall with a linen upholstered headboard.

I'd like a charcoal wall with a linen upholstered headboard. Line this color combo? But with the navy duvet and without the architectural accents (textured walls and such).

If you have the navy duvet, I’d go for charcoal on the accent wall they’re complementary but then it’s not matchy-matchy.

I vote for charcoal, too. And the linen headboard.

ok, so I was SET on charcoal wall with a linen headboard, and then S decided he didn't want either.
If we do Hale Navy wall, and a light gray headboard. White sheets and white and gray pillows (so no navy pillows right next to the wall)... Would that look fine? We could also not put the cover on the comforter, and leave it the solid gray that it is.

I vote the navy. Yes pillows to break up the navy duvet will look great, especially with a headboard in the mix!

Yay! S and I finally agreed on a frame! We ordered this one from Target 🎯.
Going with Hale Navy as a wall color. And will probably start with plain white sheets.

I love it rugger! Can't wait to see the transformation. Thanks! I'm so excited. Maybe tomorrow I'll go get the paint. We are sleeping in R's queen bed anyway while we wait for the new mattress, and we leave on Sunday for a ski trip, so it'll have like 4 days to cure and air out.

Wow, you move fast rugger! I love it!! I think it’s easier when your mattress/bed frame is already out ( pic above). Looks awesome!

Bed frame is all set up! Still need to figure out curtain rods and get white curtains, but I think it's looking pretty snazzy

I love it! That rug looks great too. Thanks! That's actually the dog's "bed". Costco had real lambskin rugs on sale for like $100 so S picked it up and it's been a much nicer looking dog bed than previous ones 😆

Looks classy & cozy rugger! We have a dog bed in our room that looks like that too.
