 Painting
is one of the most popular do-it-yourself projects.
Since evolving from being a project virtually requiring
a chemist to the days of ready-to-use paint in a can,
many are willing to take the project on themselves.
Homeowners also take on interior painting projects
because it gives them a way to update their environment
with relative ease and economy.
The Role of Color
Provided your color co-ordinates with your furnishings,
painting your walls can have a positive impact on
a room. Shades of white, gray and beige provide
a neutral setting that will not compete with your
furniture. If you are looking for a more dramatic
change why not try a colour that is complimentary
to your accessories. Complimentary colors are
opposite to one another on the colour wheel. (i.e.
red and green, blue and orange, yellow and purple)
A color scheme using the primary colors, red, yellow and
blue, is another option and can give your room a strong,
solid feeling.
Faux Finishes
When doing home improvement many people are looking
for a unique way to personalize their home.
Faux finishes, such as crackling or marbling can give
a sense of your personal style. Other techniques
include striping, spattering, sponging, ragging, combing,
stenciling and tinted plaster. These techniques
can be attempted by anyone, but are better with a
little practice. Many turn to professional painters
for these applications. Regardless, any painting
project can be messy and time consuming so why not
get an estimate from a professional painter.
