How To: Add Colour to Your Home

12 May, 2024

This is a collage of five photos. They show: a bedroom with a double or king size bed and a lot of green plants; a selection of colourful bed side lamps with quirky lampshades; a living room/lounge with a sofa with bright cushions & pictures on the wall.

One of the easiest ways to introduce colour to your home, without painting or buying new expensive furniture, is through fabrics and ornaments like cushions, blankets, rugs and artwork. Go for vibrant colours and patterns to make a statement and transform your living space quickly and on a budget.


Cushions 

Adding bright cushions to your seating area or bed, can breathe colour into any neutral interior without the hassle of painting and moving furniture around. They not only look great and stylish, but they can also add extra comfort and make your home feel cosy and welcoming. Get cushion covers for every season and change them accordingly- this way your home will never feel boring or dull.


Lampshades

Refreshing and replacing your lampshades is a quick and inexpensive way to transform your space and add some colour. Whether you go for pendants or chandeliers, bright colours or funky patterns, your living space will brighten up instantly. You can even add coloured light bulbs and neon signs if you want to make a bold statement.


Rugs & Throws

Layering rugs on the floor is a wonderful way to bring warmth, texture, and colour into an otherwise neutral space. Don't forget chair throws and blankets too. They not only introduce pops of colour and character to your home, but also add comfort and warmth during the colder months.


Artwork & Accessories 

Add some decorative objects on your shelves or coffee table- whether that's a vase, candles or an ornament you like, you will notice the difference straightaway. You can also liven up bare walls with colourful, large-scale pieces or a cluster of smaller ones, maybe even family photos. This allows colour to bloom throughout the space.


Houseplants 

Whether it’s fresh blooms or houseplants, adding greenery into your décor quite literally breathes life into any space. Don't forget about the pots too. You can choose from any colour and pattern you like to suit your needs and transform your space. Of course, make sure you water your plants as often as they need.
