Painting For Fall

Summer heat and Autumn rains can lead to a muggy day but it means that Fall is just around the corner. Fall is the season of change and preparation. The world changes from green to soft yellows, oranges, and browns before shedding their leaves like a coat! The colors of Fall are warm and vibrant, Reds, Oranges, Yellows, and Browns. Together, these colors can warm a room and draw it in so it feels more cozy.

You can capture little glimpses of Fall in your home with a mixture of bold deep earthy colors like Tawny Rose (2173-20) alongside more gentle accents of slightly gray-green Dry Sage (2142-40). For a primary color, you might try a more soothing yellow, like Pale Straw (2021-70) to warm a room or for a more cloudy look, Color Trend’s Metropolitan (AF-690). Mixing vivid colors like an accent of Tawny Rose with Metropolitan can help guests feel like they are walking through cool forests as the leaves change and fall.

Painting with Fall colors draws your rooms in and warms them. Capturing that autumn feel could be adding a cozy rustic feeling to your living and dining room or just creating an escape into the changing forests in a bedroom. As the holidays come closer, now is a great time to prepare an inviting statement for your guests.
