Bright, cheerful, whimsical and fun, these rooms from our House Tours manage to be stylish, modern and happy. To create a space that makes you happy to be in, don't be shy. Show off the things that make you smile. Whether it means keeping your favorite pair of shoes where everyone can see them or painting your nightstand an eye opening shade of electric orange, the pieces that make up your home should make you feel good.

If you love bright colors, but prefer to keep your home mostly neutral, try adding color in the form of something smaller, like a richly hued phone, a natural wood table with candy pink legs, or cheery yellow throw pillows. If you are more daring, go ahead and mix prints if you find more than one that you like, or pair a bright chair with an even brighter coffee table. Whatever your style is, just go for it! These homes remind us to decorate our homes with a dose a joy!
