Brown Is Staying Around

Some color forecasters have put chocolate brown on the endangered species list…

…but it still remains a wildly popular wall color for 2009.  Using brown is a great way to cozy up a room.  The richness you get from using a deep, delicious chocolate-brown just can’t be matched.  We love brown and — at least for now — it’s staying around!

    I love the brown and blue and the messages stenciled on the walls. I’ve always wanted to do that! Inspiring.

    Always a classic, brown can be combined with so many colours to create as many moods and styles as the imagination allows! Too much brown, however, needs to be cleverly balanced with lighter accents and reflective finishes to avoid a ‘moody’ atmosphere…hence the need to refer to a colour specialist who can guide you! Great post Kelly :)
