Set Your Mood Straight With Vibrant Wall Colours This Monsoon Season

Colours are ruminative of a person’s mood. In fact, colours break the monotony of the frantic work-driven human lives. Colours make life beautiful and evade any sense of dullness that creeps in because of certain things happening every now and then. Monsoon is a season that is known for its vibrancy, beautiful rains, sumptuous delicacies and happier people. Why not transport this happiness to your homes? After all home is a place that stands for comfort and calm and therefore it should be laden with home decor items and wall tiles that are vibrant and chic.
Set your mood straight with vibrant wall colours this monsoon season by following these simple and fun tips:

1.       Change the wall colours: Well, this just makes good common sense to be appearing at the top of the podium. Indulge in brighter colours. Period! A pop of colour would add a new dimension altogether. It is less effort and more result. How about having a dash of orange on the beige wall tiles?
Also, make sure you maintain a good distance from the greys and blacks this season. It adds dullness and heaviness which is best avoided.

2.       Lighting: Home lighting assumes great importance in the monsoons.  Ensure that you manage it well. Try experimenting with yellow lamp shades for a brighter and warmer look. Also, pick some pretty and quirky lamps. There are so many to choose from in the market today. Imagine a creative personalized lamp donning your composite marble floor. It will add that personalized touch that you’ve always dreamt of.

3.       Curtains and drapes: Use lighter and free flowing materials and bright colours and you are set to experience the monsoon breeze in all its glory sitting in your living room.


4.       Window Fixtures: Monsoon breeze is perhaps the standout thing about the season, and therefore one should revamp the windows to make ample room for cross ventilation.

5.       Bed Linens: Playing with colours should not just be restricted to the walls but should be reflected in the choice of bed linen also. You could opt for traditional Rajasthani or Kutch embroidered cushion covers along with quirky crockery for an added appeal.


6.       Add a sleek and colourful piece of furniture or accessory to add that X-Factor to your home sweet home. Match it with the newly done wall colours. It would result in a stammeringly beautiful visual delight.

7.       Make sure to hang a beautiful wind chime. Monsoons are tailor made for these accessories. In a nutshell, a wind chime is a treat to the eyes and the ears.


8.       The floor mats and doormats donning your floor tiles should be rain resistant but should also compliment the wall colours. Choose the colours and material wisely. Utility and aesthetics go hand in hand here.

Wall colours should be the starting point of preparing your home for the ‘monsoon welcome’. Then you should co-ordinate and make sure the other accessories follow closely. It is all about coordination and mixing and matching. So what are you waiting for? Get going and add that dash of colour now! You can thank us later!
