     Whether you choose to paint your walls or leave them white you can still have an interesting and exciting room.  Here are 5 ideas to help get you started.

1. Consider you largest piece of furniture.  Is it colorful or neutral?  Build from that adding color if it is neutral or accent colors if it is colorful.
2. Use an accent rug with colors and interesting shapes.
3. Dress up a neutral sofa with pillows in bright colors or patterns.
4. Artwork is a great way to draw the eye and start conversations.
5. House plants add color and texture.  Don't have a green thumb? use air plants that require little to no work from you.

     When using accent colors remember to tie it all together for a look that is cohesive.  If you have a great colorful photo on your wall use some of those colors in your pillows or other accents.  A fun and exciting room doesn't have to be hard or even expensive to create.
