Our LR is Benjamin Moore - Kennebunkport Green (a dark sage) and our MB is just white but I'd like it painted a warm tan (DH is not so on board with that )

I like to keep the LR in a neutral creamy color. Doing this keeps buying new furniture easier. In the bedroom I am a big fan of blue/grey colors or very light shades of green.

I like lavendar for the bedroom, but from watching trading spaces, I like when they do the rich warm colors too, like reds, nice oranges, even browns.

I'm on a khaki kick, many homes down here have this awesome coffee/khaki color in their LR/hallways....it's so nice and warm!

Our LR is a light cocoa color with a dark red rug (came with the apt). The bedding & drapes are neutral browns & tan.

The LR walls are a light golden color with a pale sage rug. The sofa/loveseat/chair are neutral colored but we have some dark reds in here as well.

I love the color of my bedroom. It is Victorian Garden by Benjamin Moore. It is a really pretty warm earthy green. I could also see the color of our Living Room in a bedroom. It is Greenbrier Beige by Benjamin Moore. It is a very warm tannishy beige.

My bedroom and living room were kept neutral. I used RL Suede Paint in my bedroom in a cocoa color - Fawn's Leap. My living room is RL Cottonwood - a tan/beigy color. My furniture and accessories are what I use to add color - so I can have more variety. My family room is BM Salisbury green which is a light sage.

Bedroom - where you can kind of see the suede paint

We have beige throughout our entire house. Living room has beige walls with wood laminate flooring in a light color, beige throw on sofa and I want to add cranberry colored pillows and curtains (haven't found any that I like so far)

BR has beige walls and bedding with light blue and darker, kind of brownish color running through.

Re: favorite shades for LR/Bedroom- sorry meant to post on home board but opinions still needed

We have monroe bisque in our LR...I love it! You could even use richmond bisque. They are both tan colors with sort of yellow tints. It goes with everything. Our couches are cranberry and our furniture is wood and glass. There is some sage and other rusts too.
Bedroom, I personally like cinnamons. But right now it's navajo white because I couldn't make up my mind.

Good luck
