by Angela Wiltshire Wandera

Created on: December 29, 2010

Picking a color scheme for your bedroom, is a personal affair and inspiration can be got from anywhere. You can pick your themes from nature, a metallic feel or any other theme that is to your liking.

The easy way to introduce color into your home is by painting each wall a different color and have a colorful environment.or you can draw attention to one particular wall .An accent color will liven up the whole room. Blocks of colors look great too against neutral colored walls.

You can use deep dark colors to make space feel more intimate, bright colors will have an effect of warmth to the room.

You need to find some simple colors that belong to the same color group such as purple, indigo,blue among others. Light colors create a calm peaceful atmosphere for a more lovely feeling add some pink to the whole works and have a pretty final look.

A little of contrast is a good idea, since colors contrast well with each other you will enhance the color beauty more when combined well.

Some colors look stringer together intense colors like green, red and orange can be toned down by using warm shades, like lime greem, baby pink these will compliment the bold shades of the darker colors.

You have to study and compare the colors that contrast well and those that don't rhyme at all and by the end of it all have a beautiful look that is tuned to your taste of color.

If you are using paint you need to know what type of pain to use too, there several textures of paint there is the glossy paint the water based paint, the rough paint and the in-between it is neither smooth nor rough.

When paint your walls have some creativity too you can create wave effects for the bathroom to have a water effect within the room. and when it comes to the rest room you can use calm colors like a soft shade of lavender and draw some flowers or use wallpaper to border the walls all this will give the room a different calm atmosphere.

The living room can be active or simple since it is a center for activity it is a vibrant look so the color of paint you choose has to be very strong in character too.

The bedroom will need brighter colors it will warm it up and have a lively mood too.
