Description
Makeover your home using these straightforward, fun, simple and low-cost ideas to bring a POP of colour into your interior spaces using paint, wallpaper, flowers, plants, cushions or throws. It could transform your life too.
Geraldine James' practical solutions offer those who are not confident enough to embark on expensive renovations ways to redecorate that can be easily reversed. Encouraging us to experiment, she looks at different ways you can bring colour into the home starting with adding single pops of colour in a neutral space, such as red cushions, plates, bowls and rugs in a living space then she looks at colour walls - painting a single wall with a bright colour which can really lift a room without much investment (and you can always repaint if you change your mind). Or bring living colour into a room using flowers and houseplants, terrariums and succulents. Or why not go for a multi-coloured look with checks, stripes or floral patterns whether that is by papering a wall, or painting a floor - the effects can be bold and uplifting. Textiles too can bring a softer textural layer of colour to a room whilst wall art can bring a focal point. Whatever your choice of colour palette, Geraldine will offer the perfect solution so get experimenting now.
