Home Decorating Tips
When was the last time you did something unexpected for mom? Even though Mother’s Day comes once a year, you can always surprise her with a little home makeover. Here are some wall paint design ideas moms would definitely love to have in the living room.
What Moms Want for the Heart of the Home
The living room is the heart of the home. It’s where you receive and entertain guests, where most seasonal decorations are put up in, and more importantly, where the family gathers for various bonding activities. This is why moms prefer to keep the area clean with a lot of space, and comfy with cushions and throw pillows to soften surfaces.
But the living room does not have to look like any other living room. Consider adding trinkets and decor items that make it unique and telling of mom’s own touch.
Wall Paint Design Options for the Living Room
Show mom just how much you appreciate her efforts in keeping the family home a neat, cozy place you can always run to. Here are a few wall paint design suggestions you can try for the living room.
Color Scheme Based on Mom’s Favorite Colors
Oftentimes, living rooms are designed to be warm and neutral in color. You can go safe with that option, or you can break out of the mold with colors inspired by mom’s favorites. Para sure tip: plan your color schemes with a wide range of paint colors to choose from.
Add an Accent Wall
If repainting the whole area is not something that your schedule permits, then confining your color to one accent wall may work for you. An accent wall commands attention and immediately communicates the ambiance you’re trying to go for. Is your mom energetic and lively? Maybe a strong yellow will work for you.
Work with Texture
Adding texture to the walls or ceiling creates depth and contributes to the overall mood. Textured paint treatments such as rag rolling, stippling, and marbling, for example, create a monochromatic look to any surface.
Mural for Mom
If you’re up for the challenge, you might want to attempt for the ultimate living room centerpiece: a mural that paints mom’s love, or what she makes you feel every time she’s around. You can go for a floral theme, something sunny or a rainbow across your wall—go full creative, since there are no rules here.
