    If you get the dimensions of your room, the people in the paint department where you buy your paint can help guide you in how much paint you should need.

    Measure your bedroom, and go to a paint store, give them the measurements and they will know how much paint you need. Good Luck!

    I always tell the clerk how big the room is, and if I have a dark or light color on the wall. Easy peasy.

    measue the room walls....compute area of the walls to be painted. Check paint label for usual coverage. Or talk with paint counter person...if at adedicated paint store they can compute it for you.

    Take your measurement to the paint store and they "should" be able to help you. I know the guy at my hardware can help me with my ever need, of course, he has been there since he got out of high school a looong time ago.

    Measure the length times the height of each wall and add measurements together. Check the coverage on the label of your paint can to make sure you have enough.
