Painting and Color Trends

I really enjoy paint colors. And, now that Spring is here and the weather is improving, many people are thinking about the Spring projects to freshen up their homes. Painting is an inexpensive way to change the atmosphere of a room and give an immediate fresh feeling. I was reading an article in The Herald-Times that Purple is a popular, high fashion color this year, ranging from grayish-voilet to darker, deeper plum. Another popular color tone for the year is Blue, which has become more popular than Green. Yellow, a cheerful color, is also popular and gives a lastly energetic feeling. I'm not a huge fan of Gray but apparently it is taking the place of black and brown. Maybe a charcoal grayish brown, like deep Bronze would work for me!

Whether you plan to sell the house or stay in it for ten more years, painting is a simple, affordable way to keep your house updated and attractive! Just take it room by room and it's not too overwhelming!
