do you fi nd yourself craving a
refresh? If so, there’s no better time than
the New Year to update your home with
thoughtful design touches that embrace
the power of color.
Color is a key component of interior
design and a useful tool for updating
any space. What’s more, colors can convey
many emotions - from calm to energetic
- helping you create rooms that are
perfectly refl ective of your personal tastes.
Even though the possibilities are endless,
color can be intimidating. While
you may like the use of color when you
see it online, in magazines or other people’s
homes, the uncertainty about how to
incorporate it into your own home may
hold you back. Fortunately, a few simple
expert tips and tricks will have you using
color like a pro in no time.
Lifestyle expert and EasyCare Paint
Brand Ambassador Camille Styles knows
the power of color in transforming spaces
from bland to beautiful. She uses color
throughout her home to create rooms
that are stylish and unique and you too
can transform your favorite spaces by
using her top tips to bring color into your
home:
Paint an accent wall: An accent wall
commands attention and creates depth in
the space, becoming the focal point of the
room. Th e color you choose can be any
hue that’s diff erent from the other walls
in the room. Whether it’s slightly diff erent
or drastically diff erent is up to you.
“I’m really into EasyCare Paint’s French
Coast color,” says Styles. “Its strong blue
hue makes a bold statement without
being too harsh or overpowering.”
Add a rug: Transform a room in an
instant with a vibrant rug. It will add the
perfect touch of color and can even be
changed out seasonally to bring new hues
into the space. A rug with a bright color
or pattern can help create the illusion of
more space so don’t be afraid to use one
in a smaller room to open it up and make
it more inviting.
Start small: Many people are timid
about color, so you can start small and
incorporate a new, bold tone with items
like a coff ee table accessory or oversized
pillows. You may fi nd that your choice
quickly becomes a favorite piece in your
home, plus you’ll gain the confi dence to
add more color to other rooms, too.
Introduce textures: Bringing in diff erent
colors and textures, such as a plush
throw blanket or a woven basket, takes
your space up a notch and adds another
visual layer. Since these aren’t permanent
fi xtures in the room, they off er an
easy way to play around with colors to see
what works best in the space.
Embrace the unexpected: Bring in a
bold pop of color by doing something
unexpected, like painting the trim instead
of the wall.
“Black can take a room up a notch with
its rich tone. “EasyCare Paint’s Crow
color will really wow your guests whenever
you entertain,” says Styles.
Whether you’re looking to do a quick
update or a complete interior design overhaul,
color makes a room more dynamic
and energized. From simple décor
pieces to bolder accent walls, bringing
color into your home is a great way to
refresh in the New Year.
