Colorful accents are also easy to add with inexpensive throw pillows, small accent rugs, and DIY painted furniture. If you are adding pops of color to your home, try using accents in only one or two colors throughout your home. Choosing one or two colors as accents in every room is an easy way to update your color scheme and make your home look more pulled-together. You do not have to decorate in any particular style to get the benefits of feng shui’s color balance. Any home, in any decorating style, can be more relaxed with a balanced color palette. A balanced color palette includes a base color, a color in a medium tone, and a few lighter accents. Feng shui decorating also encourages you to let go of clutter, and that includes color clutter with too many colors and decorations that make the room look busy and overwhelming. Most monochromatic color schemes are based on neutral colors, but you can use any color as your base that you pair with the lighter and darker shades. Creating your color scheme with non-neutral colors can tone down a bold color when it’s surrounded by lighter and darker shades.
