20+ Top Warm Neutral Bedroom Paint Colors for 2025 from Sherwin Williams

Choosing paint colors is hard. Anyone who says it isn’t is lying or a wizard. And when it comes to bedrooms, you really can’t afford to mess it up — unless you actually enjoy repainting furniture or second-guessing your soul at 3 a.m. in soft lamp light. For 2025, Sherwin Williams has released a stunning lineup of warm neutral tones that somehow whisper calm without being boring. And we’re here for it.

We dug into the palette, crawled around the edges, ran our hands across its textures (well, metaphorically), and pulled out the ten top warm neutral shades you’ll want to smear lovingly on your bedroom walls this year. These aren’t your grandma’s beiges. These are colors with heartbeats. With moods. With stories. So here they are, in no particular order except the one we chose because we liked it best that way.

1. Shiitake SW 9173

You’re thinking of mushrooms already. That’s fair. But Shiitake isn’t damp or musty. It’s like if taupe had a silk robe and a therapist. Rich, subtle, with just a wink of gray — this color feels expensive without screaming about it.

It pairs stupidly well with warm whites and wood tones, especially the blonde kind that look like they came from a Scandinavian Airbnb. Shiitake has depth but doesn’t take itself too seriously. Like someone who meditates but also eats cake for breakfast. Honestly, this one’s a sleeper hit for 2025.

2. Accessible Beige SW 7036

The name sounds like a sigh, right? Kinda like they gave up halfway through naming it. But don’t judge it yet. Accessible Beige is lowkey iconic. It’s the color equivalent of that soft cardigan you wear too much but everyone compliments anyway.

In the bedroom, it behaves. It doesn’t fight with your bedding or your mood swings. Whether you’re tossing around linen throws or moody charcoal accents, this one just… cooperates. It’s warm. It’s soft. It’s got manners.

3. Drift of Mist SW 9166

Barely beige, almost gray, and yet somehow warm — Drift of Mist is what happens when fog decides to be cozy. This is the color for people who want a little air in their bedroom walls. Not white. Not beige. Something… in between.

It gives the room that airy, soft feeling like a Sunday morning with coffee and too many blankets. It changes subtly through the day, especially when light hits it sideways. It’s not trying to be anything. It’s just there, quietly excellent.

4. Natural Linen SW 9109

Natural Linen is the color of a warm, unfolded bedsheet that’s been sun-dried and left on a line in Provence. Not that you’ve been to Provence. But this color makes you feel like you could.

There’s a softness here — almost buttery, but not in a gross popcorn way. Pair it with a rattan headboard or that weird curved dresser you’ve been eyeing. It doesn’t argue with you. This color just wants your bedroom to feel like a slow exhale.

5. Shoji White SW 7042

Okay, now hear us out. Shoji White isn’t technically beige. But it lives in that creamy limbo where whites and neutrals get blurry. And it’s a champ in bedrooms.

If you want a space that feels bigger, brighter, but still warm (not dentist-office white), this one slaps. It makes everything look intentional, even if you haven’t folded laundry in a week. Shoji White is your co-conspirator in bedroom serenity.

6. Canvas Tan SW 7531

Canvas Tan doesn’t play games. It’s a classic — not in the dusty, outdated way — but in that “you’ll still love me in ten years” kind of way. It’s the golden retriever of warm neutrals. Dependable. Chill. Slightly glowing.

This one leans warm but not yellow. It’s like the perfect cup of oat milk latte. Goes with deep navy, terracotta, even that weird forest green your cousin said was “very design-forward.” Canvas Tan just says yes.

7. Urbane Bronze SW 7048

Wait. Isn’t this too dark to be a warm neutral? Maybe. But Urbane Bronze is like the chocolate in your oatmeal. You didn’t need it. But now that it’s there, you can’t stop.

It’s moody, earthy, and yes, a bit dramatic. But in a bedroom? Magic. Especially if you’ve got good lighting and a flair for layering textures. Think velvet. Think matte black fixtures. Urbane Bronze gives the kind of cozy that whispers, “stay in bed, cancel your life.”

8. Kestrel White SW 7516

This one’s a bit sneaky. It sounds like it might be cold, sterile — like a birdwatcher’s basement office. But no. Kestrel White is warm, creamy, and slightly rustic.

It’s what you’d expect on the walls of a Tuscan farmhouse if that farmhouse had a minimalist interior designer and also sold expensive candles. Works beautifully with dark woods and antique metals. It’s got soul.

9. Patience SW 7555

Patience is weird. But good weird. It’s warmer than it first appears, like a friend who doesn’t talk much but gives life-altering advice outta nowhere.

In low light, it leans peachy-beige. In daylight, it’s creamy and soft. It never screams for attention, but it makes your room feel like it’s perpetually golden hour. That quiet beauty hits you right in the feelings.

10. Alabaster SW 7008

We know, we know. Alabaster? Again? Yes. Always. Sherwin Williams themselves called it Color of the Year once, and it’s still refusing to leave the chat.

Alabaster is that perfect neutral-white that isn’t cold, isn’t sterile, and somehow flatters everything it touches. Your plants look greener. Your duvet looks more expensive. Your life feels slightly more curated. It’s a cheat code.

11. Sandbank SW 6052

Sandbank is like the color of that moment when the sun hits dry earth just right. A little pink. A little clay. A lot of cozy. It leans toward a terracotta-neutral hybrid, and in a bedroom, it makes everything feel held.

It’s not beige, but it behaves like one. Use it with chunky knits, natural stone, or a washed-out indigo quilt. It feels vintage, but not dusty. Like a song you forgot you loved until it came on the radio again.

12. Tavern Taupe SW 7508

This one’s got a little edge. Tavern Taupe doesn’t tiptoe. It’s deep, grounded, and very grown-up in a slightly rebellious way. Picture the color of antique leather or worn hiking boots that have seen things.

In a bedroom, it wraps you up like a weighted blanket with opinions. Works best with iron frames, vintage light fixtures, and linen sheets that refuse to be crisp. It doesn’t need your approval, and that’s kinda why it wins.

13. Dirty Martini SW 9119

Yep. That’s really the name. And somehow, it feels like a drink at 5:47 p.m. in your coziest robe. A warm, muddy neutral with olive green undertones, Dirty Martini is for those who want neutral with a wink.

It plays incredibly well with warm woods, vintage rugs, and caramel leather. Unexpected, but wildly addicting. Paint this in your bedroom and suddenly everything smells like sandalwood and confidence.

14. Basket Beige SW 6143

This one’s the lovechild of oatmeal and sunshine. Basket Beige isn’t groundbreaking, but it feels like home. It’s the kind of color you don’t think much about — until someone walks in and says, “Wow, this feels really peaceful.”

And it does. It’s soft, sandy, and melts into every corner like it belongs there. Nothing fancy, but very real. Like that one friend who always brings snacks to the party and never asks for credit.

15. Casa Blanca SW 7571

Now this is a creamy neutral with drama under the surface. Casa Blanca isn’t flat. It’s warm, off-white, with just the faintest blush of peach if you squint hard enough.

It makes bedrooms feel rich without trying too hard. Pair it with antique brass and maybe a ridiculously fluffy duvet. It’s the color of golden-hour selfies and fresh croissants. You just wanna sink into it and never leave.

16. Bona Fide Beige SW 6065

Bona Fide Beige might sound boring. It’s got that middle-manager kind of name. But the color? Surprisingly elegant. Think roasted cashew. Toasted bread crust. That rich, neutral tone that knows it’s necessary.

It warms up any bedroom instantly, especially if you’re dealing with cooler floors or industrial touches. It’s beige with backbone. Subtle. Sincere. Slightly underappreciated — until it’s on your wall and you can’t stop looking at it.

17. Cavern Clay SW 7701

We’re pushing the boundaries of neutral here, but hear me out. Cavern Clay is like warm desert earth after a summer rain. It’s rust, sure. But it’s grounded. Cozy. Alive. And it has way more range than people give it credit for.

In a bedroom, it’s a bold move — but not a crazy one. If you’re tired of soft tones and want something earthy but not aggressive, this is it. Add in warm lighting and some neutral bedding, and suddenly it feels like you’re sleeping in a boutique Airbnb built into a cliff.

18. Softer Tan SW 6141

It’s right there in the name. Softer Tan is tan — but softened. Like someone took classic tan and gave it a chill pill. This color works like background music. Always setting the mood. Never stealing the spotlight.

It’s got a sun-washed feel, which makes small rooms look bigger and cozier at the same time. Add in natural textiles and sleepy blues, and the whole space hums in a quiet, content kind of way.

19. Renwick Beige SW 2805

Now this one’s a curveball. It comes from the Sherwin Williams Historic Collection, and yes, it’s got a little bit of an old-house vibe. But that’s what makes it cool. Renwick Beige is warm, with a dustiness that gives it depth.

It looks fantastic with moody art, low lighting, and that leather chair you stole from your dad’s office. In a bedroom, it makes the space feel grounded. A little academic. A little mysterious. Like there should be a handwritten letter in a drawer somewhere.

20. Cocoa Whip SW 9084

Sounds like dessert, and kinda looks like it too. Cocoa Whip is the softest brown you can imagine before it becomes taupe. It’s like milk chocolate got mixed with almond milk and a bit of warmth from the sun.

Use it in a bedroom to create instant intimacy. Great with black accents or brushed gold. It’s mellow, rich, and somehow makes your bed look ten times more inviting — even if it’s just laundry piles under a throw blanket.

Final Thoughts

Warm neutrals in 2025 aren’t beige blobs. They’ve got personality, range, and a certain lived-in charm. They’ve evolved past the basic builder-grade tones we used to settle for. Now they tell stories. They support your furniture, frame your art, and — let’s be real — they help you pretend your life is more put together than it actually is.

And let’s talk strategy for a hot second. Don’t just slap a color on all four walls and call it a day. Play with contrast. Accent walls are still alive (yes, really), and painting the ceiling a half-shade deeper than your walls is the new power move. Or try tone-on-tone layering with bedding and curtains in the same palette — it’s like putting your bedroom in a soft, stylish cocoon.

Lighting is your best friend and worst enemy here. A warm neutral in natural morning light looks completely different than under a yellowy bedside lamp at 10 p.m. Always test swatches. Live with them for a day or two. Let them disappoint you or surprise you. Some of the best paint choices feel “meh” at first and then age like wine.

Also, don’t forget to think about undertones. Some of these colors lean gray. Some flirt with pink or yellow. If you’ve got red-toned floors or blue-gray bedding, make sure your wall color isn’t going to start a fight with everything else in the room.

And please, for the love of wall texture — don’t skip the sample stage. Buy the tiny can. Paint the big patch. Look at it in daylight, in lamplight, during a thunderstorm. Rub a bit of dirt on it. Okay maybe not that last one. But seriously — live with it.

Sherwin Williams is giving us options that don’t scream but still speak. These warm neutrals aren’t about trends. They’re about timelessness with a twist. Whether you’re building a Pinterest-perfect setup or just want a bedroom that doesn’t feel like a dorm room anymore, these ten shades can carry the mood.

Now get yourself a brush, a roller, maybe a very stubborn friend to help, and start making your bedroom the calmest place in your chaotic little universe. You deserve it. Even if you still keep laundry on the chair in the corner. We all do.
