In India, we absolutely love our colours, don’t we? Our homes are a testimony to that and for good reason, too! Because what colour can do to a space, nothing else can.

Therefore, whether you\u2019re moving into a new apartment or renovating your current abode, painting becomes a priority. However, it is more important that you make yourself aware of the know-hows of the painting world too to get the most out of your hired painter<\/a>.<\/p>\n

PICKING THE RIGHT WALL PAINT COLOURS<\/h2>\n

That’s the first thing you and I would think of, right? Heck, one probably isn’t even thinking about the types of paints and finishes at this point. So, we’ll come to that later. Because narrowing down to your choice of colour is not an easy decision. Even if you do have, for instance, bedroom paint ideas in mind, you will always have those doubts clouding your mind. But fret not, we’ve got just the tips to help you out:<\/p>\n

1. Decorate first.<\/strong>
\n\u2026 In case your house is new. And if remodelling, then just look at your existing decor for inspiration. You will either find a piece \u2014 an Ikat cushion cover, a hand-painted vase or a Madhubani painting \u2014 that catches your attention and guides you. Or you may want a wall paint colour that blends well with your block-printed curtains or your brand new sofa set. Finding a colour to match your decor is far easier (and cheaper!) than finding fabrics, furniture and furnishings to match your wall colours.<\/p>\n

2. Look for more inspiration.<\/strong>
\nGet that mind working! Browse through pictures of beautiful homes online<\/a> or in magazines, and you\u2019re bound to get more painting ideas for house colours. In fact, did you know that almost all paint companies \u2014 whether AsianPaints<\/a>, Dulux<\/a> or Berger<\/a> \u2014 have their own colour visualisation tools and apps? These help you experiment with colours online before you buy the paint. You can thank us later!<\/p>\n
