The paint colors you love for your Cherry Hill, NJ home are as unique as the people that live there. You want your house to a be a comfy place, tailor-made for those who call it home. Perhaps for you that means a freshly colored kitchen, a poshly painted dining room or a living room that is begging you to grab a book and curl up on the couch.
When choosing paint colors for any space in your house, you want to keep the basics in mind. Pay attention to lighting and paint color flow from room to room, be sure to highlight any architectural features, and then ask yourself: “What mood do I want to convey in this space?”
Here are a few painting tips from our professional painters to get you started. Consider it a 101 course in moody paint colors.
Kitchen
It is said that the kitchen is the heart of the home, so the mood you set in this room should ground and nourish you. Yellow is a popular paint color for the kitchen, as it cultivates harmony and sets the tone for nostalgia and storytelling. When it comes to painting kitchen cabinets, select white, as it gives a clean, clutter free look and is great for home resale.
Dining Room
Nothing says tradition like gathering around the table to enjoy time-honored family recipes after a long day. To set the mood in your dining room, select paint colors that will do well in natural daylight, and the low evening light of dinner parties. Take a look at neutrals like gray or aqua, which will jive with any party decor.
Bathroom
Like it or not, your bathroom is generally the first room you see when you arise in the morning and the last room you see when you tuck in at night. It should be a space that both soothes and energizes you, but it can be a tricky room when it comes to choosing paint colors. Be sure to select a shade that works with both your fixtures and lighting, which is something bathrooms often lack.
Bedrooms
The master bedroom is your own personal sanctuary and as such it should set the mood for rest and romance. Choose paint colors that appeal to you and pair them with linens and decor that speak to who you are and where you unwind. For children’s bedrooms, allow their personalities to shine through and, within reason, let them play a part in paint color selection.
Living Room
Create a living room that will cultivate conversation and invite people to kick off their shoes and unwind. When it comes to paint colors, you will want to consider neutrals with pops of color that speak to your family story and personality.
