I went with our bedroom because it is big, and has lots of windows. I thought it could handle the brown paint. I am so glad that I did it!The paint is called Blanket Brown, by Behr.
I wanted to go darker but I knew it would be much darker in my room than it was on the paint card.
We also added crown moulding. Not wood, styrofoam. Recycled styrofoam. No nails to put in, no cutting corners either. My husband and I put this up Friday night. It took about three hours.
We ordered it from here, and we love it! We will be doing all the bathrooms next!

It's beautiful! It is a lot more color than you usually have, but it makes all of your white stuff just pop!
I love the crown molding. Went right to the site and think I am going to try this in a bedroom. Thanks for the tip. Your brown color is beautiful.
It looks great! The contrast with the white is stunning.
Love it! Tell us more about the styrofoam moulding! Do a post on it please!
I always love your clean lines and white/linen colors but this brown is making me swoon! I could curl up in that room and read/knit for hours.
Looks Beautiful!!
Love the brown--now I feel like painting my bedroom brown, but I don't have the natural light that you have and it probably would end up looking like a cave. Can't wait to see the rest of your painting.
Ooh, I love the idea of getting crown moulding without needing to get my mitre saw out.
Your bedroom looks lovely. Does it feel more restful than the white did?
I painted one wall in our bedroom brown a few months ago, too...with cream curtains and bedding. LOVE it. Yours look lovely!
Oh my that is striking! Wow--the white and brown together are fabulous!
love the dreamy white theme!
Wow! Your room looks fabulous.
The brown is just such a wonderful color! WARM...
we did the same in our new house - our bedroom is chocolate brown, and our bed and bedding are cream... we love it!!
Styrofoam molding...what a great idea! I want. I also now want a brown bedroom because yours looks so pretty!
looks gorgeous , I've got one brown wall in my bedroom and after seeing this I;m tempted to do more ..
love love love the brown.
our kitchen was brown right before we painted it white. i think it is such a warm color.
i don't know how you get out of that bed in the morning! i would want to be there all day.
BIG BIG BIG fan of the brown! Good work! And you said you weren't that good at painting! Did you put Frank to work?
Beautiful! Thanks for the link.
The brown looks great! It really makes all of the white bedding pop! In other news . . . I think we might have found our house in the country so I just might be emailing you to get all your tips on raising chicks. :-) Hope you enjoyed your time off.
it looks perfect. especially with all the white

Beautiful color, great job. I am curious about the styrofoam moulding. How did you attach it?
G O R G E O U S!!
I painted the accent wall in our family room deep, dark brown last year and love it.
Your bedroom looks fantastic!
Katie, that turned out gorgeous! I've been looking through a stack of Behr paint sample cards trying to decide...I am all about vanilla and creams...you may have convinced me to try a little darker.
Your room is wonderful! I wish I could have brown, but we have cherry woodwork throughout our home. Too dark!
it's gorgeous!!!!!!
Stunning!
