Now you’re probably excited to get started on the painting, seeing that the holidays are just around the corner, but let’s not forget the most important factor – choosing the right colour. Yes, you are painting your home to complement the festive season but you should keep in mind that this new colour will be in or on your home beyond the holidays. Consider choosing a colour that is vibrant but still manages to provide a calm ambience to your space. The colours you use will not only affect the look of your home but they will also influence your mood. A few colours you can consider are:
• Yellow – lifts your mood and boosts your energy
• Orange – livens up any space and makes a room appear more vibrant
• Purple – has a calming effect on the mind; embodies luxury
• Green – brings nature in; makes a room more soothing and restful
• Red – brightens up a room, helps to stimulate a space and can add a feeling of intimacy
Naturally, you can play around with the different shades for each colour but feel free to explore and mix-and-match to find the right one for your home. Whichever colour you choose, be sure to make it pop! You won’t regret it.
Happy painting!
