Consider all palette possibilities before grabbing a paintbrush

You know when you're guilty of emotional eating, but what about emotional painting?

Can you separate your love for a particular color from the task of simply painting the guestroom before your in-laws arrive?

Take a moment to consider the times that it makes sense to paint by emotion and the times that practical matters should govern color choices.

Foyer

Neutrals such as taupe, beige and cream befit a small space and provide for a natural transition from the outdoors. However, "it's a misconception that in a small area you can't go with a bold color," says Denise Szabo, who owns Pacific Interior Design Group in West Hills, Calif. "I wouldn't go dark, but you can still use color."

Guestroom

Colonial colors also have broad appeal, offering a soothing respite for travelers. Szabo suggests using the blue-toned Tommy Bahama "Little Harbour" bedding collection as inspiration for a colonial palette, perhaps with ivory paint on the walls.

Outside

Remember, you live inside your home, but your neighbors have to look at it everyday. You want the house to "fit in" with surrounding homes, but you can add a vibrant trim or a daring paint color for the front door. "Most people do the opposite - they choose a bold color for the house and do the trim in white. That's a big mistake," Szabo says.

Child's bedroom

Opt for a washable semi-gloss finish or a stain-resistant finish like Sherwin-Williams' low-sheen Duration Home matte, which is also ideal for high traffic areas like kitchens and bathrooms.
