Color Hues
Choosing the right color can sometimes be overwhelming, most especially if you can't make up your mind. You can always opt for the basic color theory for you to draw your inspiration from. Familiarize yourself with the concept of the color theory most especially in cool hues such as green, purple, and blue so that you can make a small room look bigger. Always keep in mind that colors play a great influence in tricking the eye.
Once you've come up with the color of your choice, you can start painting. But before doing so, prep the surface by cleaning it. Make sure it is smooth enough and leave out bumps as they would eventually crack when dry.
Make sure that the wall is thoroughly clean and dust or dirt free for the paint to adhere and leave a flawless look. Dirty walls can make the paint look uneven and would sometimes leave a permanent stain on your wall.
You don't have to stick with paint alone, let your creativity kick in and throw in some wallpaper. Instead of using paint, use a wall paper to make the wall pop up. Feel free to take risks as adding an accent wall is about adding a touch of personality and a splash of color.
