Don’t Let Color Bully You

Color should make you happy.  It should relax and soothe you, it should bring you joy and peace.  It should never, ever cause you stress. 

Yet so often we hear: “I hate picking colors.” 

“I can’t do this!” 

“Picking colors is overwhelming.” 

Part of the problem may be the fact that big paint companies offer literally thousands of color choices.  While this fact in and of itself is awesome and wonderful, when it comes to choosing a color to put on your walls, less can definitely be more.  Do we really need 1,300 blues to choose from?  Probably not.  A few great colors should be enough for most of us.  Keep it simple.
