What colors can I use to make my house feel more inviting?

In general, colors from the "warm" side of the color wheel are more welcoming. That includes yellows, oranges, pinks, reds, and near-neutrals from those same color families, like gold, beige, and greige.

How do you lighten a dark painted room?

To brighten up your space, do everything you can to bring in more natural light. Remove valances, plantation shutters, and old-fashioned window toppers that only block light without providing any privacy. Instead, opt for shades or roller blinds that can be pulled all the way up, or use drapes on rings that can be easily opened and closed.

What is a colorimeter?

A colorimeter is a device that "reads" the color on your wall and provides scientific data about the color, as well as which known paint colors are closest to what was just scanned.
