By I have a confession to make: I have a thing for natural colours. Whether it’s my bedroom walls, my living room ceiling, or the walls in my office, I crave light and natural colours. Of course, I was raised with an appreciation for bright colours, so naturally when I came across a room that was lit and natural, I knew I had to have it.
Holi are the world’s most beautiful and vibrant natural colour combinations. And for the first time in my life, I love them. I think they’re the perfect combination of light and natural colours, with everything from the sea to the sky to the air to the trees as a whole. And it all looks so peaceful even when the sun is directly overhead.
You can’t paint them all in hues your own, but you can use a mixture of different hues to add a bit of drama to a room. It can be really difficult to paint in bright colours but theyre hard to pick out when you’re looking at a room.
I have tried mixing different colours and having them all look the same. I use three hues for the main colour scheme and two more for the light tones. I have a mixture of blue, yellow, red and orange. I mix them together and then lay them out on my wall in a big circle. The circles are spaced out evenly to give me visual momentum when painting.
I find that mixing and matching hues to create a cohesive look to a room is very easy. It requires a lot of practice with colour choices but I think it is worth it and I have found it to be extremely satisfying. It makes it easier to see what youre doing and it makes a room look more powerful. To help with that process, I use natural coloured papers, which I cut to whatever size I want and then I apply it to a background colour by layering papers.
I have found that natural colours not only look great, but they are easier to use. Natural colours are so easy to work with that I have found that I can do two or three layers of a colour, without worrying about the colours being a little off centre, or not being exactly in the right spot. I can mix and match hues to create a cohesive look with just a few layers of a colour. It’s so easy and so satisfying.
I have to admit that I’m a bit of a greenholic so even when I’ll choose natural colours I always end up using them. It’s just a lot easier if I don’t have to worry about colour being a little off or not being exactly right.
I think this is something I’ve always been guilty of. I’m always trying to find ways to make my home look nice, yet don’t want to spend hours cleaning it every time I want to add a little more colour or a splash of texture. Then I end up looking like a slob. I just want to be able to wear all my colours together and not worry about it.
It’s not necessarily a bad thing to use natural colours, but don’t just go for the ‘dab’ and just fill in your walls with it. Instead, try to use natural colours that compliment your home and not clash with each other. This will give you a nice mix of colours that will really bring out your home’s natural appeal.
