Selecting Interior Paint Colors

paint colorsPainting is probably the easiest and least expensive way to freshen a room or whole house but making the right color choices are important for you and a potential buyer when choosing interior paint colors.
Remember when white walls were all the rage because they were clean and bright. That is no longer the case. Now they are perceived as lifeless and boring. Tan, beige or taupe are the new white as people have become more attracted to a warm, welcoming feeling.
One of the wonderful things about color on your walls is that it enhances any architectural features like window or doorway framing, crown molding, baseboards and art/photos.

There are some thoughts about how color effects ones moods as well.

RED creates energy and excitement. It's associated with passion and makes the heart beat faster.

PURPLE is thought to stimulate brain activity.

BLUE slows your pulse rate and lowers your body temperature.

GREEN is calming and represents renewal, youth and vigor.

YELLOW represents happiness and optimism. Studies show that viewing yellow actually releases more serotonin which is a hormone that makes you fell happier.

ORANGE has energy and warmth and muted tones can be very appealing.
