With a little creativity, it’s easy to add color to your home.
-If you want to liven up your home with a bit more color, there are simple ways you can do this without spending a lot of time and effort. Here are just a few ways to make your home more colorful:
-Recover or paint a piece of furniture. A colorful slipcover on your sofa or fresh coat of paint on your cabinets can really brighten up your space.
-Add surprise accents. Want only a hint of color? Paint just the inside of your bookshelves, cabinets or dresser drawers.
-Accessorize with color. One of the easiest ways to add a splash of color is with colorful throw blankets or pillows.
-Display colorful kitchenware. Browse through your kitchen cabinets and look for colorful plates, bowls or other ceramics to display.
-Fill your home with flowers or plants. Whether it’s a few colorful flowers picked from your garden or a lavish arrangement, fresh blooms have the added benefit of a beautiful scent.
-Hang artwork on your walls. Colorful paintings, photos or prints not only add texture and dimension to a space, they’re a great way to show off your personal taste.
-Buy colorful stationery. Stationery, note pads and sticky notes in bright colors like blue and yellow will perk up your office.
-Paint your front door. Wow your guests immediately by painting the first thing they see when they enter your home.
Remember that color sets the mood of a room. So, think about how you use the space. For instance, you might want to stick to soft, calming shades in bedrooms and brighter colors in spaces like family rooms and kitchens.
