  • Choosing the the right color 
    • Step 1: assess and determine if the big elements in your home are warm or cool 
    • Step 2: determine the undertone of the color 
    • Step 3: choose a warm/cool tone to compliment your “elephants”
    • Step 4: Test out your colors
    • Step 3: don’t pick your colors right away, know where you are going
  • Paint 2 coats on poster boards instead of testing it on your wall
