Color Trends for Spring

Hooray! Spring is almost here and I am ready to start planting flowers and experimenting with new color combinations!

The trendy colors this season are fresh and fun. The colors remind me of Easter eggs: periwinkle, lime, orange, lilac, violet and yellow...bright, happy, sunny yellow!

Louise Smith, color and design manager for Dulux, says, "This is the year to go wild and express yourself. Since fewer people will be moving, the onus is on personalization and reinvention."

Did you here that? This is the year for "Reinvention." A beautiful room does not have to be costly. A little paint and fabric with the rearrangement of some accessories can perk things up!
