 While
vacation and second home purchases are increasing at
record pace, you can make your primary home feel like
a year-round vacation spot.
By changing the paint color you can
begin to transform any room in your home, whether a bedroom
retreat or a bustling family room, into a vacation memory.
By simply incorporating hues representative of your favorite
getaway spot into your home’s living spaces, you
can extend your vacation from a week or two to all year  long!
Integrate clear blues, light pinks,
sandy tans and pale yellows into a bathroom, bedroom or
foyer area. Colors reminiscent of a seashore holiday. Or,
paint family or living room walls the deep hues often found
in a mountain retreat such as rich raisin, deep plum or
chocolate brown. Place your favorite photos, seashells
or other collectables into the space to highlight and continue
your vacation theme.
For more fun, why not:
| 1. |
Pick
a colorful beach towel or surf board design as your
inspiration for a wall mural in a child’s bedroom
or playroom, either directly over the bed or on a
feature wall. |
 |
| 2. |
Use stencils to create
a border of seashells and seahorses in a bath to
reinforce your beach theme. |
 |
| 3. |
Create a sailboat-like
retreat by incorporating soothing white and crisp
blue hues in your bedroom. |
 |
| 4. |
Pick a deep-tone
paint hue for one wall within your den, living or
family room and decorate with pictures from your
mountain vacation. |
