HOW TO DECORATE WITH CONTRASTING COLORS

1) Use contrasting colors to set a mood, establish a tone, and make a space enticing to the eye. If a certain room to too whitewashed, target the areas where you can add splashes of color.

2) Contrast trim and cabinets in the kitchen and bathroom. The main color will dictate the atmosphere, while the secondary color should pair well with the remaining decor in the space.

3) Make the walls and accent pieces the focal points of contrast in the living room, experiment with muted wall colors and vibrant furniture. In the bedroom, try bright carpeting and pillows against a neutral-colored bedspread.
