Are you gearing up to repaint your living room and provide your home with a much-needed transformation, but don’t know where to start? Doing everything right the first time around can make the process less stressful and provide you with results that you’re able to enjoy for years to come. Read on for some tips to paint your living room, including how to choose the best color scheme to fit your personality.

Choosing The Color of Your Living Room

There are two main routes you can choose to go down, depending on what you’re looking to achieve by repainting your living area. Choosing neutral paint colors that are timeless, clean, and classic, or going bold to make your living room the statement piece of your home. Either way, it’s important to know how to navigate each of these routes, and here are some helpful tips.

Neutral Isn’t Boring

Many people associate “neutral” with “boring”, but when it comes to choosing paint colors, that’s not the case. This color selection can include more than tan, beige, gray, and white. Light blue, cream, pale green, and in-between tones of gray-blue and beige-gray are also included in the “neutral” portfolio. When you go this route, you can rest-assured that they match with virtually everything, they’ll be calming without being boring, and they’re a popular choice among homebuyers.

Bold & Adventurous

If you’re feeling more adventurous and want to go the bold route, you’ll have endless exciting color options to choose from. For some homeowners, it can be overwhelming. Some popular, modern, bold colors today include, dark reds, subtle sage green, bright Mediterranean blues, and even cozy, clean black. The best way to learn what pops out and attracts your eye is to peruse blogs and idea boards found on Pinterest and Google Images. When going this route, it’s important that you balance your furniture with the vibrant wall color.

Avoid Making These Common Mistakes

While choosing paint for your living room, it’s important to choose a high-quality brand that uses better pigments and binders, so your results can last longer. That’s why it’s so important to consult with a professional. They can walk you through the process and help you avoid common DIY mistakes, such as not applying enough coats of paint, choosing the wrong sheen, and cutting cost on materials, which will actually end up costing you more in the long-run.

With a professional painter by your side, you can rest-assured that you’ll be able to achieve long-lasting results that meet your expectations and avoid some of the most common mistakes made by homeowners while repainting their living rooms.
