The color of a room in your home affects how you feel while you’re in that room. Rugs, furniture, window treatments and any other fabrics that are going to remain in the room should be the starting point for your color scheme. Repainting walls and ceilings is a comparatively inexpensive way to change the look of a room without starting completely over. Choose three to four colors at the most and support those colors on what will go with the room furnishings.

Take into thought that the ceiling does not have to be white. Typically, ceilings are the lightest paint color in a room since lighter colors give the feeling of more space and darker colors tend to visually "lower" the ceiling, giving the room a smaller, more close and cozy feel. The same applies with darker colors on walls which make the room seem smaller while lighter colors make the room seem larger.

In general, each color has its own beauty but the choice of colors in your home is very personal and only you can say what works best for you. Instead of painting a whole room, why not we try out a splash of it on a wall for just a bit and see if you like it. Else go for other options and check it out in all the possible ways that it will receive light throughout a day. A new color scheme is a good investment not only in your home but also in your personal happiness.
