Best Benjamin Moore Paint Colors for a Little Boy's Bedroom Avatar Theme

Midnight Dream Black - Avatar: The Last Airbender has an Asian feel, and with that sensibility will come a smart use of Midnight Dream black in the little boy's room. Use Midnight Dream as an accent color.

Adobe Dust - Adobe Dust is one of the Benjamin Moore Paint Colors you can use for the main walls in the little boy's room to create a theme from Avatar: The Last Airbender. The color may be a little dark to use on all four walls, depending on the size of the room.

The Adobe Dust paint color could be combined with a number of other Benjamin Moore paint colors to create a sponged-on map wall. You can sponge on the Adobe Dust combined with Benjamin Moore Seminola and Benjamin Moore Cream Froth. Use the Adobe Dust as the main color, then sponge on the other two, to create an aged map effect. This can be done on one wall or on all of the walls.

The technique is similar to a paint ragging method.

Pumpkin Creme could be substituted for the Adobe Dust. This Benjamin Moore color for a little boy's room is deep and earthy.

Seminola yellow is one of the main colors worn by Avatar Aang. It is a slightly mustardy-yellow. The yellow on the Nick TV show is brighter, but this color from Benjamin Moore works better for a little boy's room.

Beaver Brown is the color of the Avatar Aang's staff. The Beaver Brown from Benjamin Moore is deep brown that can be used as a accent, or you can paint a trompe l'oeil staff in the corner of the room, or behind a door.

This color can be used as an accent, or in the corners to appear wood-like.

Any of these above colors can be used to represent the earth.

Windmill Wings - One of the most important colors that a little boy's bedroom with an Avatar: The Last Airbender theme needs is the right blue. Benjamin Moore's Windmill Wings is light blue with just the right airy feel to represent the symbol on Avatar Aang's head.

Windmill Wings can be used to paint a sky on the ceiling, or to create a multi-layered cloud border where the walls meet the ceilings.

You could also add a bolder Avatar: The Last Airbender element to the little boy's room by painting an arrow or a couple of arrows with this blue paint. You could make one large arrow in the center of the one wall, above the bed for example. The Benjamin Moore Windmill Wings blue could also be used to make smaller and more subtle arrows to represent Avatar: The Last Airbender. Place one on each wall, as a decorative element where the wall meets the ceiling. Or place one in each corner.

While this blue is meant to represent air, it can also represent water.

Neon Red - It took a while to find the right red in the Benjamin Moore palette, but Neon Red is it. Don't be fooled by the name, this red has a touch of black to it. The Neon Red will help give the room a spark of energy, while representing the fire element.

The Benjamin Moore Neon Red for the Avatar: The Last Airbender little boy's room also adds that touch of Asian to the overall scheme. Even if you don't use the paint, look for one stand-out element or accessory that matches this energetic red color.

Two Neutrals for the Avatar: The Last Airbender Little Boy's Room

There are two neutrals that will work well with this palette of Benjamin Moore's paint colors for a little boy's room with an Avatar: The Last Airbender Airbender

Mt. Ranier Gray - This bluish gray can represent air. It can be used with the blue to create cloud-like formations high up on the wall. It an also be used for the walls or for the ceiling.

Cream Froth from Benjamin Moore is a neutral color that most closely represents the skin tone of Avatar: The Last Airbender. This is a very light neutral that can be incorporated into the little boy's room with an Avatar: The Last Airbender theme.

In addition to using the paint, you can also include any old-looking maps or scrolls or Asian writing in the room to complete the Avatar: The Last Airbender theme for a little boy's room.

    P.S. I thought "Avatar" meant online character and I forgot "Adobe" meant brick rather than software. I need help. :-)
