Throw pillows and blankets, colorful ceiling medallions and artwork as well as accent paint are all great ways to add pops of color to your home! Some may not be easily changeable, but all add interest and personality. Take a look at the below examples and tell us...which is your favorite way to add color to a space?

Create a graphic pattern by painting a group of ceiling medallions varying shades of the same hue. Read more about this great idea in the post Using Ceiling Medallions on the Wall.

Okay, so maybe this isn't a great example of The Color Cure Week 4's theme—Easily Change Color—but it is a great, creative use of color! Read more about it in the post A Sweet Trend? Candy Colored Blue & Pink for Interiors.

Don't just paint a neutral chevron pattern on your wall, take lead from Noah's Room and mix it up with a spicy color!

Here is a great use of colorful accents against a mostly-neutral palette. Check out the rest of Jessica's Gem in Kerrisdale.

There may be no better way to add pops of color than with throw pillows and easily-changeable textiles. So of course Amy & David Butler's Creative Textile Lab of a Home is the perfect place for such inspiration!

Check out the powerful punch these grass-colored pillows and throw blanket add to this otherwise achromatic room. Click over to discover the other creative uses of color in Jennifer's "Surprise on the Inside" Ranch.

Still shy about color? Take a lead from Michael & Shannon's Mix of Tradition and Travel, where a beautiful plant and throw blanket bring their otherwise neutral bedroom to life.

Sarah's Classic Modern in the West Village is another great example of how to easily change and add color.

What's not to love about a painted door? It's a great, easy way to add color to a home's interior or exterior. Take a look at how the exterior of Dana & Steve's Sunny Southern Craftsman is brought to life with this lovely color.

must be a colored door kind of day. i've been tracking our pops of color and our new colored door on our blog too!
I love, love, love your ideas for color. The pop of color on the front door makes the guest wonder how the house is decorated, make me feel welcome!
Question:
How can I have the color name or number from those pictures? I love the blue on the front door and also the neutral color on the living room and bedroom. It seems like the perfect white on the walls. Thank you!!!!

For the door that is. The others are shared too.
I add color in wall decorations and doors, but textiles are my favorite way.
fun vintage artwork is one of my fave ways to add a great pop of color to a space!
Love ceiling medalions...on ceilings. On walls, they look like hubcaps.
The white staircase makes me want to grab a paintbrush and paint the steps. Too blindingly white (and so impractical.) I want to paint the treads one color, and the risers something else, sticking with the pink or blue theme for at least one (risers or treads.)
Zig-zags on the walls make me dizzy.
The porch looks inviting, if a bit neutral under the pink pillows. The bed with the blue throw on it looks to be in a tastefully decorated room. (My style, though likely too traditional for many here.)
The blue door looks great, with or without the colorful bicycle. The room with the light blue accents around the fireplace doesn't work for me; but if you are going to put up a bright blue wall shelf, it would look better if you put something on it.
The white room with a little green needs way more color. Though I'm not sure you can get enough color in a room with white walls and white upholstery to suit me. I think the one with white-ish walls and furniture with touches of orange and blue and yellow and the colorful rug still looks too white to me.
I think many of these exhibit what I consider to be "fear of color" or "fear of too much color." I'm not a fan of starting with white in decorating. Even when starting with white walls (as we've all done for some reasons, rentals, or an eye to resale) - Especially then! - I like other large items to be in colors.

I love these colors:)
I love that blue door.
