The bedrooms oranges are very successful this year for both adults and children or babies, and although in this room is always advisable to use light colors, if you combine properly you can achieve wonders. You can use this color to paint the walls or only to other elements such as textiles, furniture or decorative objects.

If you want to paint the orange room you are recommended it in a clear tone very much alive as you get tired quickly. Moreover, just get a very cozy atmosphere. If you want to paint a vivid hue, it is best to also use another color to take away vitality and make it more balanced. For example, Brown combines great with the orange and you fit all year depending on the shade you choose.

As for the colors to combine the brown is going well and you can apply it in different ways. If you do not want the two colors on the wall you can paint in a soft orange and brown to use darker shades to get a contrast. With the white, mauve and blue also looks good on walls as in the textile.

If you use two colors to paint the walls have several options. On the one hand, you can paint a wall in one color and the other three in another to achieve a striking effect. If one of the two colors is very much alive just put it on a wall and using softer tones in the other three. If you want both in the same, the vertical bars are the best option.

Fill space of blacks, grays and other dark colors always contribute a negative way in home decor, as it prevents a good reflection of light, it feels small space, and can also be a little gloomy or depressing. In this sense, the proportions will always be the key to ensure success. You can decant by the black, but combined in turn with more vivid colors that bring joy to that space.

By contrast, white and beige are the most beneficial to the feeling of light and openness, but we must also be measured to know not to fall into the mistake of boring and bland decor. The latter can always avoid adding colorful accessories to break that feeling. Curtains, cushions, candles on the table are small details that will help you find yourself in an environment much more conducive to relaxation and wellness.

You can find it in several colors, not just in the classic slate gray, so no problem to combine it with any decor you have and you look great.

Both the paint and the vinyl can use it to cover the space you want, so however much or little will be an ideal choice to let the imagination fly.

If you want to completely cover the wood, as if it were a paint finish, start sanding the surface with a special machine that will save you considerable time. You can rent one at a good price, for hours or during the weekend. Remove dust with a damp cloth, let dry and apply a coat of primer (sealer synthetic) with a roller provided with a long handle. Let dry, ventilate the room well, and gives the first coat of paint in the same way. You can use two-component epoxy paint, synthetic enamel of good quality or a special paint for floors. If you go two-tone paint, gives first hand clearer (two layers). Let dry and cover the areas you want to keep in that color with masking tape. Give two hands of the darker paint with the roller.

To stain the wood and get a contrast similar to marquetry, start over by sanding the floor. It covers areas that will be clearer with masking tape and plastic can make tiles, diamonds or borders. Apply two or three coats of polyurethane floor varnish color of your choice (walnut, oak, cherry) on the exposed areas with a wide brush and in the direction of the grain. When you have your tone that interests you, remove the plastic and let dry. Brush the light areas with two or three coats of varnish itself, this time colorless. Finish by applying a layer to the entire floor using a roller with long handle and clear coat.

Steps to a furniture varnish and aged:

– The furniture is stained with the color chosen with care and extending it by removing the excess with a cotton cloth. This staining method highlights the wood grain.

– Then apply one coat of primer. At this point we have to choose the type of product to be used (water, solvent or nitrocellulose, for example). When dry, sand it lightly and remove dust.

– Then you have two coats of clear varnish satin.

– Always sand between coats with very fine steel wool, after removing dust with a cotton cloth.

– Crackle: We used two coats of distinct, by various methods, they react with each other breaking and creating the effect that gives the name.

– Patina: on painted or varnished furniture extends tinted wax, made from home-made or marketed by any firm.

– Decape: apply several layers of different colors and then sanded to superimposed, giving the appearance of a worn furniture.
