Spring forward with colorful paint upgrades to make this spring.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Interior Stairs<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Stairs are an often-overlooked style element in your house. Most owners just make them safe and move on. Get creative with the kick plates and paint a rainbow or ombre look up the front of the stairs. Conversely, a painted-on runner pattern can bring focus to stairways. For simpler options, just painting the risers of the stairs adds an interesting look.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Mantle or Fireplace<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>How do you make a modern house feel old? Put a hulking old brick fireplace or mantle in it. Have one? Don\u2019t worry! Updating the fireplace is as simple as changing the color.<br \/>\nThe fastest way to make a modern house feel old? Stick a fireplace or mantle in it made of natural brick. Fret not! Update the fireplace or mantel with a simple paint job. So as to not upset the balance of color in your home, try a sleek black paint job or whitewashing. You will need some particular ingredients to make this recipe work, so be sure to consult the paint experts at your store if you\u2019re taking it on yourself. Let them know this is a fireplace paint job on brick as it will change the paint you need.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Front Door<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Exterior paint jobs are big and costly. If you want the feeling of a new paint job outside without the cost and mess, how about updating the front door? A fun door color is the fastest and easiest way to get big results outside. Some colors will even raise the value of your house. Peppercorn paint on a front door brought some sales $6,000 more at closing tables.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Kitchen Cabinets<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Kitchen cabinets easily date a kitchen back a couple of decades. As the major architectural element in your kitchen, they can be costly to get replaced. Rather than get all new cabinets, if yours are in good shape, paint them. You don\u2019t even have to paint all of them. Add a darker look to the bottom to create a faux ceiling effect, or try a color pairing like navy and white for a classic New England home feel.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bathroom Vanity<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>For an unexpected color pop, aim for your bathroom vanity. Typically bathrooms are smaller and more neutral. Use an afternoon and a gallon of paint to change out the color of the vanity and up the style points. Great options are muted blue, charcoal or barely yellow.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Headboard<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Don\u2019t feel like a college kid if you don\u2019t have a headboard. Take some paint and create a painted headboard directly on the wall. Try a complementary color to your current bedroom setting, or go bold for a big impact.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Bookcase Interior<\/strong><\/p>\n<p>Painting the interior of a bookcase is unexpected but gives a room a big impact. Allow the color to peek over the books for just a subtle bout of whimsy. Sure the books are thoughtful, so why shouldn\u2019t the bookshelf be too?<\/p>\n<p>If you\u2019re feeling crafty, give these a try yourself!
