I do get giddy when I see “Color Of The Year” just in hopes it’s not another gray. That was a bit of humor there but when it comes to choosing color for your home, it’s no laughing matter. Here’s LIVING CORAL. Now, let’s see how to make this work in the home.

It’s a pretty color don’t you think? It’s light, bright, totally saturated with lots of energetic color and really just screams fun. So, where and how do we use this fun color in the home?

I used a similar color several years back when my daughter was just 12. It was called Guava Jam by Behr and I loved it!!!! It was like a lighter version of Living Coral, more soothing. Here is it. Isn’t it pretty?

And pretty it is which makes it perfect for a young girls bedroom but for me, it really stops there. I haven’t used this color or one similar since which is a good 11 years ago.

Probably my favorite place for Living Coral would be in a bathroom. Sure it’s great for a kids room but I’d want to enjoy it too!

As far as using it for the other rooms in the home, to me it’s a very feminine color so I’m not sure I’d use it for a full wall color. Accessories and decor? Sure, of course. That’s what we always do with the color that are just a little too bright.

Isn’t that one happy bathroom? How would you use Living Coral in your home?
