Colour it In

Why paint the walls in one shade, when you can rock two (or more)? Get creative with the Frog Tape and switch shades near the top of the wall for a modern take on a picture rail, or make the split two-thirds down for a fun faux dado effect. Colour-blocking a corner or alcove can also help zone a reading/study area, while stickers will add pattern to the mix (and can be easily removed when the tween hits double digits). Prefer to play it safe? Go for a neutral paint palette and use cushions, art or even a sassy headboard to bring ALL the colour.
