Choosing a colour or shade for your property is very important when deciding your colour schemes. Here are a few guides towards picking the right colour for your home.

Don’t pick your Paint colour first.

Remember, you would still purchase furniture, curtains, and various adornments for your home. I know how eager you’re to get things done fast and trying to do the big stuff first. But, it is much easier to choose a paint that goes with your furniture and decor than to choose furniture and decor that goes with your paint.

Get Inspiration.

We would suggest Pinterest. Or better still, Instagram. But, you would be doing a lot of checking. You can make an appointment with a professional painting service and discuss your choices with them. If you happen to live in Hawaii and its environs, visit https://www.oahupropainters.com/.

Neutrals are great choices.

Now we are not saying avoid colour altogether. Colour is good, but you have to first decide where you want the attention in a room to go. If your answer is the walls, then yea, go bold. And if you go bold on the walls, everything else in the room should be pretty neutral so that you don’t end up with too many things competing. This is why bold colour in a bathroom can work so well because most everything else in a bathroom is already neutral (white). If you are confused about what neutral colours to pick, engage the services of a professional painter.

Use Testers.

If you have a tight budget, this might not be a good idea, but testers help you make that choice. What are testers? Buy paints of your choice colours, paint a significant part of the wall and see how the light hits it. You can observe if it goes well with your decor, or gives your room enough lighting or gives you that attention that you seek.

Have a Colour Theme throughout your Property.

I don’t mean paint the whole thing in one colour but, especially in rooms that open into one another consider what each room will look like when standing in another. If you are going to play it safe and go with one colour, I would suggest that you at least go a few shades lighter or darker in one room or even on one focal wall. It is a great way to add depth and interest to a space.

Model homes are a perfect example of having a colour theme throughout a home. They typically keep the main living space wall colour neutral and use fabrics and accessories to add colour. Then in the bedrooms, they may have the accent colours from the living space on the walls and keep the bedding neutral.
