Youve got colour sheets and palettes spread out before you
. But you dont know what colour you want to combine with what. But here are some simple rules that you can follow and not go wrong about what you want your room to look like. You need to know that there are some basic ways in which you can get shades to mix and match for painting. These are called colour schemes and they are of three kinds monochromatic, complementary and analogous. Monochromatic colour combination is rather simple. You just pick a shade and stick to it throughout the room. So that you dont get bored of the same shade, you can make the decorations in the same shade but in different intensities. When you range a single shade from dark to light, you end up getting a smooth flow of colour in your room without having too much problems about choosing.
Complementary colour schemes are those that are exactly opposite to each other in the colour spectrum. These colours being directly opposite are excellent contrasts to each other. This is the best way in which you can match different shades to get the right mix; and it doesnt overwhelm you either. If you want more shades to be thrown into the mix, then you can just choose more complementary shades from a colour wheel. There are mixes of two and three and even four sets of shades for you to decorate with. Or if you would rather, you can also pick an analogous scheme. This would mean that you would have to pick colours from the colour wheel that are adjacent to each other for your wall painting. You would clearly see that the shades are similar to each other to one extent or the other. This ensures that the colours dont clash with each other.
But if you want to stick to safe colour paints then use either white or beige. They are colours that blend in well with anything and can give you flexibility when youre picking your accessories. You dont need to worry about whether or not a shade matches for the simple reason that these are colours that wont let you down. A white or cream wall would be the perfect backdrop for pretty much any colour that you would want to paint in your rooms, especially white. So when you want to get your home decor right, then be sure to use these simple but effective methods to get your home painting right.
