Wood blinds.

I don't think the bamboo block enough light for a bedroom.

I personally don't like the look of celluar blinds.

I have the bambo blinds in a few rooms and I love them. They give you privacy and still let in light.

I actually love all of them. Chat Icon I know that is no help though. Chat Icon

I have Cellular Cordless blinds(from JCPenny) in our light slate blue with dark furniture bedroom. They are Cream in color.

These are pics from when we first got our bedroom furniture and nothing else was in the room. But you can see the blinds.

I have dark bamboo roman shades with liners (from www.blinds.com) in our Family Room with dark and light furniture with a blue accent wall. Love the look.Chat Icon (of course you pay more for the liners), but it really keeps the sun out. It's always nice and dark and cooler in that room. Chat Icon

Our bedroom is Misted Green also, but it does look green in our room. I love the color. From your choices, I like #2. We have gray cellulars b/c our carpet is gray. They are actually 2-in-1 shades from JC Penneys. It's like two shades in one. It can be lowered so that you can see a sheer white pleated shade, or raised so that you see the more opaque grey cellulars...or you can leave it in the middle and see both. I love it!
