Soldiers wear camouflage-pattern garments called fatigues for safety reasons.
The patterns known collectively as "camouflage" vary in color and style from earth-colored blobs to green and brown arrangements of squares to the spots on a leopard. Whether you want to paint your bedroom in camouflage because you are a soldier, hunter or paintball fanatic, you love the colors typically used in camouflage or you simply like the idea of doing something a little off-the-wall on your walls, tailor your camo paint job to your favorite colors and the layout of your bedroom.
Camouflage Accent Wall
Accent your bedroom with a camouflage-painted accent wall. Select either the smallest wall in the room or the wall to which you'd like to draw attention. For example, you could pick the biggest wall or the wall behind your bed. Painting only an accent wall in camo print rather than the entire room is an appropriate choice if you are intimidated by the amount of time required to paint the whole room in the complex camouflage pattern or if you don't want to wake up feeling like you are trapped in a pile of fatigues. As a kind of decorating joke, you could also paint all the furniture against the accent wall in the camouflage pattern.
Camouflage Floor
Paint your bedroom floor in a camouflage pattern if you have a concrete or unattractive wooden floor you want to cover up. The advantage of painting the floor rather than the walls or ceiling is you don't have to worry about paint dripping down -- a particular concern when working with strong, dark camo colors like green and brown. Instead of painting the entire floor in a camouflage pattern, you could create a camo "rug" under the bed or in your desk area, which could also be a good solution if you want a camouflage rug but can't find one.
Camouflage Colors
The camouflage pattern can be made with different color combinations.
Pick the camouflage colors for the walls to match the rest of your bedroom furnishings -- the bed linens in particular since the bed is the furniture focal point of most bedrooms. While traditional camouflage colors are brown, beige, green, khaki and various shades thereof, there's no law that says you can't, say, invent a white, gray and black camouflage pattern to paint on your walls to match your jet-black sheets.
All Camouflage
Paint all the walls and the furniture in your bedroom in camouflage if you are crazy about the camouflage pattern, if you have a lot of time to spend on the painting process and if you will not find concentrating or sleeping in a room with so much visual stimulation difficult. For a very stimulating room, paint each wall and piece of furniture a different camo pattern.
