One of the simplest ways to
renew the look of any room in your maison is to add a dash of color. LivingEtc has a handful of quick tips that
they say will "bring a room bang up to date," and give "an all white scheme" attitude:
- Line curtain panels with "a hint of luxurious colored silk."
- "Wrap chair legs in colored paper."
- Offset "a group of monochrome ornaments with a colored one."
- "Paint just part of a piece of furniture, leaving the rest white," and carry the color throughout the room by using it for lampshade trim or a cushion.
- Paint a simple stripe in one corner to add depth to the room.
- Line a cabinet with "brightly patterned fabric or wallpaper," and "use complementary accessories to pull the whole look together."

Hello,
I am having a particularly difficult time deciding which color to paint my kitchen walls. They came in a brown, which I do not like at all. My tastes are contemporary.
Hi Casa,
I love the idea of
making fabric wall art and I am thinking of creating one for my living room wall (which is stark white — I am renting). I was hoping I could ask for some color advice for selecting a fabric. My living room currently has espresso brown and blue colors.
When I knocked on the door of Laurel's home, I knew I was in for a treat. Laurel,
a visual artist who works in low-relief wall pieces, bought her two-bedroom, one-bath 1928 Craftsman home from her grandparents five years ago. Since then, the space has been extensively renovated and personalized.
