How much color is too much color?


When it comes to using color in your home, we say do what makes you happy. But if you are looking for a way to create some color balance, check out our tips below.

Use neutrals to balance out bright or bold colors. If you want to use bright purple in your living room, do it—but balance it out with neutral colors. This keeps your room from looking too loud and also showcases the bold purple.

Pick your palette wisely. If you want to use more than one bold color in a room, make sure the colors create a cohesive palette. One way to do this is to use complementary colors. Another way is to use colors from the same color family for a more monotone palette.

Take advantage of home accents. Accessories are a great way to add color to any room without making permanent changes. Simply purchase a few affordable home accents, like throw pillows, throw blankets, and lamps in the colors of your choice and place them around your home.

Focus on one piece. If you want to use furniture to add some color to your space, focus on one piece. Bright yellow couches and a coffee table in your living room  might be a bit much. Instead, stick to neutral furniture with a yellow chair to create the perfect balance.
