font-size: large;"><strong>DO:  Choose a neutral for your background color.</strong></span>  (Neutrals are not limited to whites, tans, browns, greys and beige.  Every color has a neutral - muted down, or grayed versions will enhance but not overpower your decor.)  Your wall color should not be the first thing you see when you enter a room - it should all pull together as one balanced look.</div><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div style="text-align: left;"><br /><br /></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;

font-size: large;"><strong>DO:  Invest in some sample pots of the colors you are considering.</strong></span>   Instead of painting your walls with the samples, paint two coats on poster board, leaving a 2" white border.  The advantage is that you can tack the poster board to your wall and move the board around the room and see the colors in different light.  The white border keeps your current wall color from influencing the new color.  (You may find that soft sage green turns into pea soup in the evening light, or that the soft peach is actually neon once it's on four walls).<br /><br /><br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both;
