* Tips For Choosing Colors For Room Painting Makeovers


Before buying paint for redoing rooms in your house, make sure your chosen colors work are suited for each room slated for a makeover.

Just by choosing the right color schemes, you can turn an ordinary room into an exceptional one. But before dashing off to buy paint, be sure to do choose colors that will work well for each room.
Take Inventory

Know what you have to work with regarding your present furnishings. Go throughout your house and determine which areas need a major makeover. With a notepad and pen in hand, write down pertinent information regarding each room.
Consider Lighting

What direction does a room face? Does it face east where morning sunlight streams into a window? Don’t use dark colors in rooms exposed to a lot of sunlight. A room facing east won’t appear the same in the evening when viewed with artificial lighting. Rooms facing west may have a warm glow in the morning, but will be dull in the morning. Just take this into consideration when selecting colors.

Also, keep in mind that rooms facing north receive less direct sunlight that those that face south. Therefore, you may want to use sunnier colors to cheer up a northern exposure.

Take home a wide variety of paint swatches. Then note how the various light sources for different rooms work with the swatches. Before investing in any paint, put up a test patch on your wall. After three days to a week of seeing how the light hits the wall, you’ll have a better idea about how the room would be if painted in that color.
