A colonial bedroom is plain in the best way: a four-poster bed, a handmade quilt and a chest at the foot.

What a colonial bedroom looks like

A four-poster or simple spindle bed in maple or pine is dressed with a quilt in red, blue or cream over a plain white coverlet. A blanket chest sits at the foot of the bed, a small candlestand serves as a nightstand, and a highboy or chest of drawers stands against the wall. Walls are painted cream, sage or colonial blue, the floor is wide plank with a braided rug, and framed samplers and a small mirror hang nearby.

Try it on your own bedroom

Upload a photo of your bedroom, restyle it in Colonial, and send the result to whoever shares the space as a which-one poll. Then step inside the winner in 360°. Your bed, windows and door stay where they are; bedding, furniture finishes, wall colour, rug and lighting are what change.

Details worth getting right

  • A quilt in a traditional pattern is the natural centrepiece
  • A blanket chest at the foot adds storage and authentic character
  • Keep colour muted and historic, with cream, sage, faded blue and barn red
  • A braided rug is warm, practical and period-correct
