Adding color can be tricky because you don't want to choose a gaudy, glaring hue or overwhelm the eye with something far too blinding. Fortunately, there are all sorts of ways to add an eye-catching splash of color to any space, from living room to dining room to bathroom. You can add freshness to small rooms or even make large rooms look cozier. ## 1. Keep It Varied ![Keep It Varied](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/c8/j1/htl6icbi56d5164cbbfe3262500002_500x715.jpg) Add your color subtly, especially if you don't want to go overboard or draw the eye to one particular place. A few picture frames, colorful flow pillows, and a single bold neutral – in this case, the rug – are all you need. ## 2. Try a Table ![Try a Table](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/e1/ts/czvsmvsq56d5164d1df9a447238137_550x458.jpg) A functional table in a fun color is a fabulous way to add some brightness to your neutral room. It adds a lovely freshness in small spaces, too. ## 3. Seriously, Don't Underestimate the Power of Throw Pillows ![Seriously, Don't Underestimate the Power of Throw Pillows](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/yz/pd/aax4jupb56d797043e788256410590_546x545.jpg) I say that as someone with a 4:1 ratio of throw pillows to seats. Heather and I have a problem with pillowcases. By the way, you can buy affordable but adorable cases to cover your current pillows. ## 4. Can't Go Wrong with Curtains ![Can't Go Wrong with Curtains](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/h3/lk/izzt22bv56d796fc165e7022975044_533x800.jpg) Oooh, that's a lovely color, too. ## 5. Bust out Some Saucy Stools ![Bust out Some Saucy Stools](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/s3/af/npp681qt56d7971720705506588824_600x801.jpg) These are so retro! I kind of want them, but in orange. ## 6. Go All out with Statement Furniture ![Go All out with Statement Furniture](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/m9/sv/v599ggpr56d7972e224dd879473418_600x600.jpg) This is a huge statement, though. You don't necessarily need a big yellow couch – unless that's your thing. ## 7. Mix up Your Patterns ![Mix up Your Patterns](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/id/k2/chg9egod56d5164dd4b52955606398_426x640.jpg) This can be done well, even if you choose bold patterns, you just have to be careful. ## 8.

Always Choose a Statement-maker ![Always Choose a Statement-maker](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/rr/a7/hw6etclp56d5164ed6630283032901_474x640.jpg) A patchwork rug? Yes, please! ## 10. Keep It Cohesive ![Keep It Cohesive](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/jy/h4/crd8sovo56d5164dccbb6221081428_541x720.jpg) See how the flowers match the pink in the pillows? And again, a bold neutral pattern never hurts. ## 11. Oh, This is Precious ![Oh, This is Precious](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/i1/az/m8g825gq56d5164e9d34e418784003_600x780.jpg) I have a thing for turquoise and I love the addition of pink here! I might have to copy this somewhere in the house. ## 12. Add Accentuating Touches ![Add Accentuating Touches](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/yi/xh/pndbqky856d79743a4af5228497157_500x500.jpg) The book, the pillow, that pretty wreath – perfection! ## 13. Pick a Softer Pop ![Pick a Softer Pop](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/up/ln/foh5tkpf56d5164eaedf4331524219_600x727.jpg) It's not all about turquoise, lime green, and hot pink. A pretty peach mixed with copper looks just lovely. ## 14. Another Example of Making a Big Statement ![Another Example of Making a Big Statement](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/ex/ir/w5q49yeg56d5164f7cd37231858845_600x750.jpg) There's something kind of lush and decadent about this couch, though. ## 15. Get Creative with an Accent Wall ![Get Creative with an Accent Wall](https://resize.allw.mn/1028x0/filters:format(webp)/filters:quality(70)/content/wh/az/xlodo6mz56dae97273284999805637_500x750.jpg) Painstaking, but worth it. ## 16.
