“Color is powerful - it can cleanse and revive a tired area in any home, and can change a mood or lift the spirits. Across the globe different cultures attach significance to certain colors. Color can be passionate and sensual, and it can be calming and meditative.” Anna
Starmer
We live in a world of color and often don’t realize the impact certain colors have on us.

I used thirteen colors in my home. I asked another color consultant to come in and critque what I have done. She loved my color families, but felt a couple colors just needed a bit of tweaking. Here are some before and after photos of the fireplace mantle.

- Mantle Before
I used Sherwin-Williams Travertine in the living room.

- Mantle Before
Notice the Travertine between the gold color of the oak wood and the gray tile.

- Mantle After
Here I used Sherwin-Williams Chestnut Red.

- Mantle After
Notice how the red makes everything “pop” and ties the gold wood and gray tile together. The painting stands out against the darker background and the red pulls out the red in the painting.
