We love bringing in unique pieces, but a home feels like a home when everything is pleasing to look at and comfortable to be in.

1. Choose a bold color for your room

Being bold can be fun and refreshing! Color theory states that choosing two colors that are complementary and are opposite of each other on the color wheel, creates the perfect combination! Take a look at this color wheel for a great example of choosing opposite colors like blue and orange and purple and yellow.

Take one color and match it with the two colors adjacent to its complementary color. We are talking blue, yellow-orange, and red-orange. This can be difficult for beginners but we are always here to help you. Think of colors as energy: cool colors bring calmness, while warm colors bring harmony.

3. Here are some more little cheats to know!
