Add color to your life

Adding color to a room doesn't need to be a major commitment. If painting a whole room is too much, here are a few helpful ways to add color without completely diving into to a relationship with the "it" color of the season:


Accent color: Paint or wall paper a feature wall; use panel moulding to give character and an area to block out an accent color; or buy large canvas's to paint or wall paper with your secondary color choice:

With a multitude of possibilities, colorful accessories will add whimsy to your space, without leaving you stuck to a certain color palette:

Toss pillows are easily interchangeable, you can even do this seasonally. Try a bold pattern in an electric hue:
