You’ve decided to paint your house. Cool! But now there’s the question: what color?
There is no such thing as the “best” color for your home. It all depends on what you like and want to express with it, and that varies from person to person incredibly. And good news: this article will show you how to pick out colors that suit YOUR taste best.
But before we start: keep two things in mind when choosing the right color: first: choose something YOU like! That’s the most important part – if you don’t like it, why should anyone else?! And second: try not to be too influenced by – remember, they might think differently.
Now let’s start with a classic: choosing a color for the walls.
It might seem like an easy task, but it can be quite complicated. So here are a few tips to help you out!
The first thing you should do is look at those colors that have been trending during the previous year or season – just go up to your shelf and take some paint chips from magazines. They’re there for a reason, right? After all, everyone who reads those magazines knows what colors belong in this season – and they definitely know more than we do! But make sure not to get influenced – sometimes even these colors don’t suit us as much as we want to! There is nothing worse than walking around your home, staring at (or for) these horrible colors. Even if you don’t want to paint all the walls in one color, it’s important to find a starting point. And this is where our next tip comes into play:
Have one wall that will catch everyone’s eyes no matter what. Why? Because that’s where most of us hang out the most – just like it is with the TV! That alone makes this wall important, but not more than another. So choose wisely – It can be either your favorite color or something neutral. Just make sure you love it!
Now for some great advice on choosing neutral colors: pick up those paint chips again and look for some shades of gray. Gray is one of the most loved colors on the planet. It’s neutral, classy, and never goes out of fashion. And not only that: it’s considered to be a safe color – nobody will judge you or think badly about it! This means that even if you make some mistakes with other paints in your home, people won’t be able to tell because they’ll all be covered up by the gray paint.
The last thing we want to talk about is those colorful walls that are everywhere nowadays! You can create amazing effects without using expensive techniques like stencils or wallpapers – just use an undercoat (or more), let them dry completely, and then add your topcoat of choice! And here comes our final tip: if you’re planning to do something similar, you should maybe think about painting the walls before buying any other furniture. The reason is simple: it will be much easier for you to create your “wall decor” once the paint has dried!
