In a previous post, we discussed the Pantone Color of the Year. To give you some more décor color ideas, we researched other popular companies who also pick a color of the year. All of these colors are chosen after careful consideration and review. These additional colors can give you ideas for a whole house theme, appliance options, or if you are looking to remodel a specific room. Here are the 2021 colors of the year we found.

This could be a good color for walls and furniture in your home. It is a color that goes well with many others, so the possibilities are numerous for décor options. A good way to determine how the colors would go together would be to either get paint samples and put them together or use a computer program to sketch out your ideas.
