Instead, stay stylish and on-budget with decor items finished in trending colors. Accent pillows and painted furniture, for instance, are great ways to introduce color into a room. Navy blue could make a welcoming front-door color and florals can add a touch of pink. For a neutral base, grey is great for resale and plays well with other accent dcor colors. Creams, soft whites and taupes are also livable options that can be regu- larly refreshed with accessories.
