Color, even in your choice of accessories, can have a big impact on the mood of your room. Color can comfort, energize, calm, inspire and so much more.

The drama comes from the bold shade of turquoise furnishings that is echoed on the ceiling.\u00a0 The rich hue pops even more next to the crisp black finishes.<\/p>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-medium wp-image-5511\" src=\"https:\/\/margaretdonaldsoninteriors.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/11\/color-and-mood-3-650x433-1.jpg\" alt=\"color-and-mood-3\" width=\"650\" height=\"433\" \/><\/p>\n<p>Color doesn&#8217;t have to be dramatic to create a mood.
