Paint. It's our favorite five letter word. It does wonders. It not only makes your home look fresh and new, but by adding color you give your space a whole new dimension. Don't be afraid to be bold! Too many people have had too many white walls for too many years. Your house is an expression of you. If you like orange, show it off!
A gallon of paint at Home Depot is $23.47. Look for adds in a your local/neighborhood newsletters to find a painter. We've known painters that will work for about $25.00 an hour. A normal size bedroom should only take about 1 day (8 hours ) for two coats.
One of our absolute favorite homes was all white. We came in and added color to each room and rehung the artwork. The pictures below are of the before and afters of the breakfast nook in this home. The lime walls really makes this room pop and the artwork stand out. Now, who wouldn't want to eat cereal in that room every morning?

ReplyDeleteNot only is green one of my favorite colors but this particular shade makes this room so much cheerier. I'd definitely have my raisin bran in this room.
