It's the season of spring sprucing and with great decorating power comes great interior responsibility. While this may seem like an unlikely quote for this situation, it's certainly accurate. Planning to redo a living space can easily turn into a mess of indecisiveness, and while we can understand going power crazy with color and creating a monochromatic aesthetic, that may not have been your first choice. So we've been looking for a convenient way to plan out the redesign of a space without making any rookie renovation mistakes.
Coincidentally, we came across Oprah Winfrey's rule of thumb when it comes to decorating with paint color, and we were curious to hear what the specialists thought of her principle. (After all, the chat show host is known for her brilliant advice, so who's to say that her design principles aren't one to stand by?) Well, as it turns out, her approach has been dividing designers' opinions. Here, we spoke to a couple of experts who weigh in on the decorating trick and tell us if it's worth adopting ourselves.
