Paint A Perfect Day

Tuesday, July 12th, 2016

A balanced August-inspired palette is just what you need to color in your home.

Paint the perfect August day. Think of the sunrise with strokes of pastel colors and bursts of clouds, all waiting to start the day. Imagine the dew drops on blades of grass and the morning flowers blooming to welcome in the sunshine. Focus on the sky and the gradients of blues and grays it sheds across the horizon. And finally, the sunshine and its yellow beams that warm the entire afternoon into the night.

August is a month full of colors that spark happiness and light, and House Beautiful has the perfect arrangement of palettes to portray its natural beauty. From sunrise pinks to earthy greens and sky blues, you can find the perfect combo to bring your home to life.

Certain colors trigger specific feelings, emotions and moods, so make sure you choose the perfect tint for each room. For example, blues are known to calm and relax the mind and body, making it a great choice for a bedroom. Yellows trigger happiness and communication, so what better place than in the living room?

These August hues are taking over 2016, and House Beautiful features them in their “These Color Trends Are Dominating 2016” article. (You can check out the full article, colors and room displays on their website: http://www.housebeautiful.com/room-decorating/colors/g2888/color-trends/?thumbnails.)
