Top 5 Color Mistakes That Everyone Makes And How to Fix Them

You’ve decided to bring some new color into your home with a fresh coat of paint. Good on you! But Before you begin painting or buying any new furniture, take a look at a few of the most common color mistakes people tend to make. 

1. Not considering light

Lighting has a huge impact on the way a color looks and feels in a room. If you don’t consider how a room’s lighting looks with a color that you picked, there’s a good chance that you could end up living with a very different color shade than you originally intended. This mistake can be easily avoided with a little prep work.

Before you choose a paint color, find a few different color samples that you like, and place them in various corners of the room. Watch how the light affects the samples throughout the day. You may notice that the sample colors turn out to be lighter or darker than what you want for that room. At this point, it’s much easier to just switch out your sample colors for other options than to redo the whole room from scratch.
