Thinking of All the Colors

Fall is upon us! The leaves are beginning to turn and the crisp autumn air has made it's way to Nashville. Summer was great with all of the bright colors and jazzy designs, the BBQs, and the pool times! There have been terrific days for gardening and the amount of rain this year left us with no excuse but to do chores around the house. New seasons bring new beginnings and fall is a time to do something new and fresh to get it going on the right track. First order of business: fall colors!

There are so many colors and styles to choose from that it can be a little difficult to actually choose one! It also depends on what you are trying to go for. Are you going with a theme? If this is your first home, it may be hard to decide what you want your home to say. There is the contemporary style, the fun eclectic home, the cool modern feel, the traditional style, and many more to choose from. 

Of course you follow the latest trends and fashions, so I don’t have to tell you that fall is a wonderful time to choose warm and neutral colors, such as browns, oranges, beiges, tans, olive greens, taupe, and so on. A great source for exploring paint options is Sherwin-Williams. They have so many choices and categories that you can look through in order to get an idea of what you want for your home. Along with colors, they have finishing ideas and types for you to review as well.

There are lots of interior paint color ideas and many varieties of wallpaper you can choose from. Yes, you have design options! Another good source to get some ideas and even products from is Houzz.com. They have idea books and options that you might really like. There you will find a wide variety of syles and colors. The most important thing to remember is that you're just looking and getting ideas, so you can relax and start surfing for your new look. 

Your home is about to have a makeover! Are you getting excited? After you choose the right colors for you, your family, and your home, there are accents that just top it all of. Maybe new pillow cases, covers, sheets, candles, etc. Z-Gallerie is an excellent place to not only get ideas but browse through their trendy designs and colors. Right now they have some beautiful items, so enjoy looking! 

These are just a few places to start your home makeover. Just getting the ball rolling and the ideas going is a great place to begin. We are confident that you will make your home so cozy for these next few months. We wish you a very happy fall and Thanksgiving! We can see it now, your lovely home smelling of pumpkin spice and sweet potatoes! Have fun this season and we look forward to blogging more often!
