5 Home Painting Ideas To Shake Things Up This Fall

Heads up, Waterloo! Winter’s coming, which means a whole lot more indoor time. That sounds like the perfect time to get busy with a new home painting project.

Make your home a place you want to spend more time in by freshening things up or doing something completely new. After all, you can’t get cabin fever in a home you love to be in!

Stick around to get the hottest painting project ideas from some pro home painters. Let’s get inspired!

1) Spice Up Your Kitchen Cabinets

See those dull oak kitchen cabinets? Throw some colour on them and watch your kitchen come back to life! Let’s make it a kitchen you WANT to cook in.

Some popular kitchen colours are:

  • Navy Blue

  • Terra Cotta

  • Dark Grey

  • Sage Green

2) Bust Out The Wallpaper

Do you want an artistic design or mural on your wall but don’t have the talent to paint it?

Wallpaper has made quite the comeback. The new and improved kind of wallpaper comes in all kinds of designs, even murals. And the peel-and-stick tiles make for a painless process.

Here are some of the hottest wallpaper trends:

  • Scenic murals

  • Floral designs

  • Geometric patterns

3) Create An Accent Wall

One of the most popular home painting projects is accent walls. They look great, help you show things off to your visitors, and are a great way to make a statement that screams “you.”

You can create an accent wall in your bedroom, living room, or anywhere else you want. Accent walls are your opportunity to play with bright colours and bold patterns. The secret to a great accent wall is to make it stand out in a way that works with the rest of the room.

4) Brighten Up Your Basement

Basements don’t get a whole lot of light, which tends to give them a bad rap for being dark and dingy. But that doesn’t have to be the case. There are plenty of ways to make your basement a brighter, happier space.

Add some colour to the walls. If it’s dark, lighten things up with a soft grey or neutral beige. When you use lighter tones, not only does a space look brighter, but it also creates an illusion of more space.

5) Statement Ceilings

White ceilings are old news. One of the newest home painting trends is offsetting white walls with a vibrant pop of colour on the ceiling. The best part is that it looks great, no matter what colour you pick. Some home colour combos that are popular right now include:

  • Classic Black and White

  • Soft Sage Green and Neutral Brown

  • Soft Pink and White

  • Light Grey and Navy Blue
