Room Colors and Mood

So I was relaxing in my new bedroom, of a couple months, and was enjoying the cool blues my husband and I decided to paint it. Then of course my design brain kicked in and began thinking about the mood of colors and thought, "blues really do relax you"!

So then I just had to pull out this color mood chart that I remembered finding in a book I checked out from the library once. The book is called, The Busy Woman's Home Spa Book by Liz Wilde.

So then the crazy side in me popped out and I took the chart and ran around my house to see if the colors in that room really matched up to what I was feeling when I was in that room. It sure did! Or at least I thought it did. Well...it sure was fun and made me really learn a lot about myself.

Here is the color mood chart if want to test your house!
