Not everyone can afford a full living room makeover, but there are some creative and inexpensive ways to use colour so it feels like it was one big makeover.

• 

Paint One Wall

Paint a wall in your living room one colour. Make it an accent wall. Choose a vibrant, contrasting colour from your living room’s fabric.

Toss in a Few Pillows

Add a touch of colour with strategically placed and carefully chosen throw pillows. Experiment with solids and pops of pattern, and add in a solid to soften the look if you prefer.

Add Nature

Choose greenery that’s meant to thrive in your indoor space; so, you can embrace your living space with nature’s most vibrant hues.

Light Up a New Lamp

Lamps add colour and personality to any living room. Whether you buy a new lamp, revamp an existing one, or just update the shades.

Spread Colour Underfoot

Area rugs soften up a room and add warmth, but a dense rug strategically placed under a coffee table or in front of a chair, can add colour and texture to a living room.

Bring in Bold Art

In a large space in a living room, one colourful piece of art, introduces hues and shapes.

Throw on the Colour

Warm, cozy quilts, throws, or blankets can now be added to the living room instead of being kept confined to bedrooms. A handmade quilt or oversized faux fur blanket, adds colour and texture to a neutral sofa or armchair in the living room.
