19 Navy And Mustard Bedroom Ideas That’ll Make You Love These Colors All Over Again!
The Bedding Can Create The Best Look!
When thinking of introducing a new color to your bedroom, doing it with the bedding first is, by far, the best way to do it.
This is because, if you don’t like it (which is sometimes likely to happen) you can always change it. When you have the color up on the wall or anywhere permanent, there is no looking back.
You have to bear with it, whether you want to or you don’t.
That’s why when you are unsure, the bedding is your savior. And since you are going for a navy blue and mustard color combination, you can go for a navy blue bedspread and a mustard throw blanket and throw pillows as in the image above. It nails it!

Color Block The Wall
Color blocking means ‘pairing two or more bold colors.’ Simply put, you can put the mustard color and the navy blue color parallel on the wall if you are sure you want to stick to this color palette.
Doing this would add a bright and bold vibe to your bedroom. And on whichever wall you use this, it is sure to become the focal point, the center of attention of your bedroom so choose wisely which wall deserves all the attention.
But to balance the look and not to make it feel intimidating, pairing it with a light color can do the job, think white or light grey.
Plus adding some accent lights to that wall is a cherry on top.

A Grey, Navy, And Mustard Bedroom
Just the navy blue and mustard color palette all around the room can create quite an intimidating feel in your bedroom, it then becomes important to use a color that can hold navy and mustard together and save the overall look.
Tints of grey work quite well in that case. Look at the above bedroom, for example.
Just a shot of mustard and navy blue is used in the form of the bedding and tints of grey color act as the backdrop, not letting the room feel very intimidating or dull. Rather, it gives a perfect balance.

Frequently Asked Questions (FAQs)
Do Navy Blue And Mustard Go Together?
Well, navy blue and mustard look stunning together! They make a perfect color combination, especially when married with a neutral like grey or white.
Is Mustard A Good Color For Your Bedroom?
If used sparingly, mustard gives an aesthetic and lively feel to the bedroom and makes a good color for it.
But so far as your sleep is concerned, having too much mustard in the environment might disturb it. The sole reason is that it is warm colors and warm colors stimulate physical activity and blood flow, which is not suitable for sleep. In short, it is good as long as it is used sparingly in the bedroom.
Is Navy A Good Color For The Bedroom?
Quite good. Navy blue comes under cool colors, and thus it relieves stress, tension, and anxiety and promotes sleep. It is definitely a good color for your bedroom. But too much of it can make the room feel tiny, dingy, and cave-like so consider coupling it with a light or neutral color like cream, white, or grey.
Does Navy Blue Make A Room Look Smaller?
Yes, navy blue makes the room look smaller because of its dark tone. To combat that, use it with some light colors as the backdrop like white or cream.
How Do You Brighten Up A Navy Room?
Simple as it sounds, just couple it with a light and bright color, think white or cream or a light grey.
Others ways to do that include, having a lot of natural and artificial light in your bedroom and using light-colored accessories and furniture. A splash of a bright color like yellow or parrot green can also do wonders.
Some Last Thoughts
When you are designing a navy and mustard bedroom, there is scope for error, definitely, especially when you overdo something.
Balance is the key.
And our recommendation would be, just to have a neutral color to couple with it. It could be white or grey, if you wish.
Once that is looked after, it’s all good.
Until next time, happy decorating!
