At one time or another you might find yourself living in a small space which doesn’t bother you so long as your neighbor’s WIFI continues to connect automatically. Regardless of the circumstance however, you should always consider personalizing your space by for example, decorating it to suit you.
There are a few simple things that you can do to decorate this small space such as re-arranging the items in your house to painting. They include;
Colors; choosing the colors that work for you
When choosing colors to paint your small space, you should before anything else, consider working with the colors around you; the colours that are most dominant in your house with regards to your household items for example. This will help you choose colors that will easily blend in and therefore save you the unnecessary costs of having to purchase new items to match your new wall colors.
Once you do this the next obvious step is choosing brighter shades of your favourite colors because brighter colors tend to create the illusion of a bigger space. You can download the Crown paint mobile application from your Android or I phone that will give you an easy access to colour charts to help you choose those colors.
A simple thing that can help to tie everything together is replacing your old sofa pillows and bed pillows with more colourful ones; it is important to however consider colour blocking to avoid portraying a confused atmosphere.
Mood; which effect are you hoping to achieve?
Colors can be creatively used to achieve different moods depending on the room. You can achieve a cool and calm environment by going for dark blue, a restful environment by using the colour green which is considered the colour that is most easy on the eyes, elegance and creativity using the color purple or you can further decide to go for that energetic feel and opt for red!
Choosing these colors may depend on the room. If you, for example decide to go for different colors for the rooms in your house , it would certainly be more fun.
Personality; colour me happy
Your home should be a reflection of who you are with regards to your personality! This then means that if you sincerely feel strongly about the colour red or maybe yellow and it is a love affair that you are happy to defend any day then go for it! Colors and placement of items in the house can reflect different personalities such as a vibrant and cheerful person whose space will probably include bright colors.
This freedom of choice will probably inspire your creativity with regards to how you will re-arrange your household items in the spirit of revamping your small space.
Paint; quality above all
Have you ever been in a beautiful space where the wall colors unfortunately have that tired feel? Unfortunate isn’t it? Well you can easily avoid that by taking the time to choose quality paint. The paint you choose to use should be of the highest quality and affordable at the same time and this is where Crown paints come in. Crown Paints Kenya LTD has a range of decorative products that include paints that are suitable for residential areas. Good quality paint will always leave your house looking great, so much so that each time you enter any room your mood changes for the better.
Some other clever things you should consider include;
- Placing a mirror on the wall adjacent to a window or directly opposite a window as it will not only reflect the light from the window but it will also reflect the views from the window. This illusion of light will make a space look brighter.
- Wear old clothes that you don’t need in case you decide to paint yourself. This will enable you to have fun and not have to worry about stains.
