5 ways to decorate the home with paint

Paint can be used to create coherence, depth, life, and serenity in the home décor. Anna and Clara are fond of both the complementary and contrasting, and will show here how you can change the expression of the entire home with just a few, small buckets of paint.

Two in one. Create dynamics and depth in the room by painting a wall in two colours. The sisters recommend complementary colours to balance out the dynamic expression, but the only real limit is your imagination.

Sense of serenity. By painting walls, fillets, and furniture in the same colour, you will create a sense of serenity and make room for playing with the colours of the home interior and decorations in the room.

Colour dash. Use elements in another colour than the one that is dominant to capture the eye and create coherence.

Colours in the home décor create a sense of personality.

And here, there are no rules. Trust what you like yourself.

Split space. Use a painted, narrow shelf to split the wall. You do not need to be a skilled carpenter to install the shelf with small brackets yourself.

Gallery. You can use the narrow shelf to display frames with artworks and print to bring the room even more to life. It is easy to switch around and you will avoid having to make holes in the beautiful, painted wall.

New life. Add new life to your furniture with a round of paint. You can opt to paint it in a complementary colour or in a contrast colour which will both stand out and tie the room together.
