Use your wedding registries to set the right mood
Written on August 4, 2010 by Cody Whitefoord
When adding home decor items to our wedding registries, most of us pick out items based on quality, modern fashion or just because they’re plan cute. But have you ever stopped to think how those items influence the mood in your home?
It’s not hard to see why color plays a big part in determining the mood in a room. Color is one of the first things we notice about an object, be it a car, t-shirt or sofa. So when you’re getting ready to start purchasing items for your home, think about the foundation you’re building upon. Are your wall colors conducive to your desired feel of the room?
Colors can be grouped into three different categories: active, passive or neutral.
Active colors are warm colors like red, orange and yellow. Warm colors are known to drum up feelings of confidence and positiveness in extroverted individuals. These colors inspire conversation and unleash creativity.
Passive colors, like blue, green and purple, have a calming and restoring effect on most individuals. These colors can sometimes cause sadness in some individuals. If you find you’re one of those individuals, liven up a passive color by picking a shade that isn’t overwhelmed with cool tones, for example a yellow hued green.
Neutral colors are the shades you can’t really classify as a “color”. The make up the many shades of brown, beige, grey and white. Neutral colors are great for sending a restful message to your brain. It’s no coincidence many coffee shops and spas decorate in neutrals, as they typically de-stress most individuals.
