Don&#8217;t overlook color. Color plays a big role in your home&#8217;s aesthetic and mood, and it can affect your overall property value, too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>If you&#8217;re not sure where to start, get acquainted with the trending hues for 2025 and take a look at these tips for incorporating color like a pro.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\">1. Let the colors of the year guide you<\/span><\/strong><span class=\"has-inline-color has-vivid-cyan-blue-color\"><strong>.<\/strong> <\/span>A great place to start is by reviewing the colors of the year.

Benjamin Moore went with October Mist, a pale, silvery green, while Sherwin-Williams opted for Evergreen Fog, a soothing green-meets-gray shade.

You can opt for a more nuanced approach and paint an accent wall, your crown molding or your baseboards, or you could go all-out and use it on your kitchen cabinets or even an entire room or ceiling.

Factor in durability and upkeep.<\/strong><\/span> White and light hues photograph well and make a room look nice and clean. On the downside, they may get dirty easily and often require a lot of cleaning and upkeep. They&#8217;re typically not good choices in a well-used space (like a playroom or right around the kitchen sink or oven, for example).<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Planning to sell your home or buy a new one this year? <a href=\"http:\/\/HowardHanna.com\/Camillus\" data-type=\"URL\" data-id=\"http:\/\/BobKratz.Howardhanna.com\"><strong>Reach out today for guidance.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>If you&#8217;re thinking of updating, remodeling or repairing your home<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"jetpack_post_was_ever_published":false,"footnotes":"","jetpack_publicize_message":"","jetpack_publicize_feature_enabled":true,"jetpack_social_post_already_shared":true,"jetpack_social_options":{"image_generator_settings":{"template":"highway","default_image_id":0,"font":"","enabled":false},"version":2}},"categories":[976,6,8,9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-2691","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-life","category-real-estate","category-stuff","category-technology"],"jetpack_publicize_connections":[],"jetpack_featured_media_url":"","featured_image_urls":{"full":"","thumbnail":"","medium":"","medium_large":"","large":"","1536x1536":"","2048x2048":"","chromenews-featured":"","chromenews-large":"","chromenews-medium":""},"author_info":{"display_name":"Being BOB","author_link":"https:\/\/beingbobblog.com\/happy-holidays\/author\/admin\/"},"category_info":"<a href=\"https:\/\/beingbobblog.com\/happy-holidays\/category\/life\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Life<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/beingbobblog.com\/happy-holidays\/category\/real-estate\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Real Estate<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/beingbobblog.com\/happy-holidays\/category\/stuff\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Stuff<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/beingbobblog.com\/happy-holidays\/category\/technology\/\" rel=\"category tag\">Technology<\/a>","tag_info":"Technology","comment_count":"0","jetpack_sharing_enabled":true,"jetpack_shortlink":"https:\/\/wp.me\/p822aG-Hp","_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/beingbobblog.com\/happy-holidays\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2691","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/beingbobblog.com\/happy-holidays\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/beingbobblog.com\/happy-holidays\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beingbobblog.com\/happy-holidays\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beingbobblog.com\/happy-holidays\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=2691"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/beingbobblog.com\/happy-holidays\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/2691\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/beingbobblog.com\/happy-holidays\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=2691"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beingbobblog.com\/happy-holidays\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=2691"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/beingbobblog.com\/happy-holidays\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=2691"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
