7 Easy Ways to add a little Colour to your world

February 10, 2017

It’s officially November and we can all see it, not just on the calendar but outside, too! The days are shorter, the leaves have fallen off of the trees and those beautiful fall colours have turned to grey….everything is just a little dreary. So maybe it’s time for a change, a dash of colour and some fun at home.

The easiest way to make a change to your space to liven it up is with colour. Here are some of favourite (and easy) ideas to add some pop to your decor.

1 – Florals.

This is perfect for anyone non-committal, fresh flowers don’t last for after about 10 days – they will need replacing. Or try some silk flowers, these keep, they are low maintenance and you can bring them out when ever our home needs an extra boost! They look great in bedrooms, bathrooms, on coffee tables and more….

2 – Art.

Such an easy way to add as much or as little colour as you like. Any style of art piece can have colour from abstract to landscapes – go with what you love. You can use the colours in that piece as an inspiration for adding even more colour in that room, so not, it’s up to you!

3 – Area rugs.

Think of them as art on the floor. This is a great way to make a statement in any room. Mixing colour and pattern can really transform a room. The options are endless!

4 – Drapery.

A fun way to add colour, pattern and texture to your space. This can really wake up a neutral space. Like area rugs – the choices are plentiful…

5 – Small furniture pieces.

Keep your main furniture pieces neutral but try adding an accent chair, side table or stool in a colour. This is unique and it’s a great way to show off your personality. We love this kitchen with orange stools – it really adds some fun to a mostly white on white space.

6 – Decor pillows.

This is probably the easiest way to give your room a colourful update. We love to mix bold colours, patterns and complimentary colours against a neutral sofa or bed.
