17 Insanely Cute Gray Bedroom Ideas
1. Cabin Theme
We love cabin-themed gray bedroom ideas, and this one is so cozy. Rather than going all gray, they chose to paint a dark gray accent wall behind the bed. The white curtains and bedding contrast nicely against the dark color.
Whitewashed furniture and a big white area rug make this room complete.
We also love the big barn door and word art on the wall. The cubbies in the bedframe add some extra hidden storage to help keep the room tidy.

2. Board and Batten Wall
Adding board and batten to a gray wall can help soften up the space and create space to display artwork and plants. The simple metal frame bed, floating nightstands and minimalistic bench help save space to make this small room cozier.
While the white board and batten add contrast to the wall, you can choose to paint your boards a slightly lighter or darker color to stick to the gray theme. Just make sure that you incorporate some pops of color to keep the room from feeling too drabby. Placing plants on the shelf, for example, helps break up the gray to make the space feel a little more welcoming.

3. Gray and White Theme
Gray and white can be a beautiful theme for any bedroom, especially when you incorporate different shades of gray into the mix. The fuzzy light fixture breaks up the dark gray colors and softens things up. The artwork above the bed and the dark gray accent wall adds depth and balance to the space.

5. Textured Walls
The textured gray walls in this room contrast nicely against the white floors and light bedding. The gradient theme carries over into the bedding to tie everything together. There’s nothing too over the top about this room, and that’s what makes it so appealing.
You can recreate the wall design with sponge painting or even wallpaper. Be sure to choose grays that are in the same family if you’re going to experiment with painting.

6. Rustic Boho
The bed curtains and fairy lights in this boho gray bedroom really make you want to curl up with a good book or a Netflix marathon. The wooden bench, antlers and plush area rug tie the look together.
If you don’t have a canopy bed, you can still recreate this look. Just tie each corner up higher to keep the curtain in place – just like they did in this photo. Try using fairy lights that are battery operated for a cord-free, cozy space that you’ll love spending time in.

12. Cozy Gray
If you’re looking for cozy gray bedroom ideas, here’s a cute one. We love the highly placed chair rail and contrasting shades of gray on the walls. The brown and blue-gray accents help add some earthy tones to make the space a little more inviting.
All of the décor complements the dark furniture, which add some drama to the room.
But the natural lighting is what really makes this room so cozy. Ditching the curtains and sticking to blinds allows you to let in as much or as little natural light without adding too much bulk to the room.

The fluffy comforter is really the star of the show here. It makes you want to jump into bed and drift off to sleep.

16. Gray and Navy
Gray and blue work so well together, especially a cool navy blue. The charcoal blue, navy and textured gray walls create this other-worldly vibe without being too cold and uninviting. Linen bedding, an area rug and a plush throw blanket soften things up.
We love the pendant lighting above the nightstand, which frees up more tabletop space. The wall’s concrete texture can be recreated with sponge painting or wall panels. Just make sure that you choose a navy blue that matches the warmth or coolness of the gray on your walls.
