Picking a paint color is not an easy task. Before choosing a particular color or even color family, figuring out a plan is an important step. You may know exactly what you are looking for, and that’s great but you may have no idea where to start. Here are some tips on finding inspiration for your next paint project.
Pinterest is a great platform to find all kinds of inspiration. There are new things to pin everyday. Searching for ‘living room paint color ideas’ is a great way to see different style options or specific colors for your space. Each search can be specified to a different room of your house. Pinterest is a great platform as it provides visuals and descriptions to be able to see the concept in real time and help you visualize it in your space.
Drive through your neighborhood
When looking to update your home’s exterior, the answer may be right in front of you. Going for a drive or walk through your neighborhood with a focus on other exteriors may open your eyes to see ideas that may be right in front of you. Looking for inspiration in your own neighborhood can give you a realistic idea about how something may look since you are in an area with similar elements and architecture.
Watch home improvement TV shows
With the abundance of home improvement shows on TV, there is inspiration all around. Seeing a home renovation play out on your screen can allow you to see why different paint colors are used in different rooms with different styles. Seeing the final product of the home can help see what a freshly painted home would look like with different styles that may be similar to your own style.
