Color can make or break a room! Too much and it is overwhelming, too little and it gets lost. Whether you just bought your first place (congrats!) or your existing home is in need of a facelift these color tips will guide you in the right direction!
1. Painting an accent wall
Painting is one of these easiest ways to add color to a space with little cost. Also it is easy to change for the next time you feel your room needs a new face! Don't be afraid of using a bold color, that is why its an accent! You could always go a little further and add a texture or pattern to the wall.
2. Adding a throw or some pillows into the mix
Throws are not only a great place to add color but always nice to have something to cuddle up with on those chilly nights! While you are curled up why not rest your head on some bold pillows! Say you loved red for years so all your accents are red.....then one day you decide you want turquoise...changing that is easy! Swap your old throw and pillows for you new color you fell in love with!
3. Recover a small chair cushion
Recovering a chair cushion sounds daunting to some but inspect the chair and see if you can do it yourself! Usually a staple gun is the only tool you need! Find a fabric you like with maybe a pattern to add more interest to your space. and if the chair needs a little more TLC you can always paint the frame and change the fabric...ta da! New chair!
4. Go Green! Bring some plants in to the mix
Colorful blooms make any room feel alive! If you aren't one for flowers green foliage works great too. Some plants even have different color leaves making them a little more interesting. My fiance recently gave me a beautiful Dendrobium Orchid for my office and it makes things feel a little cozier in here!
5. Put some color on the floor
A rug is a great way to add color to any room and it also can define a space without putting up a divider. Visually separates that space form the rest. This is a perfect place to "do it big", use a large pattern with a color or two. Again, easily changeable to go with your next favorite color you may choose for your room in the future.
