Adding Value to Your Real Estate

If you're like the thousands (millions?) of people painting your homes just because it's summer (personally I paint in the winter) you might want to consider reading this article that appeared in MSN.

I have seen many people shy away from darker or more expressive colors when they perceive the room in question as "small." I remember as a child my parents always went with the boring pastels and whites because the rooms were too small.

But there's nothing wrong with trying something new. There are some interesting color choices listed here. And even if you can't quite tolerate the idea of having too saturated a color all over the walls of the room, consider an accent wall. If you pick the right color on the right wall, you might end up making the room seem bigger!
