Those with blue or purple are soothing as well as creative, adding interest to the room.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Positivity and joy can come from colors that are bright and warm, like paints or stains with yellow, orange, or red hues. These happy colors can add to a room layout that\u2019s uplifting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Shades of blue are cool and calming. The simpleness and neutral vibe of white, beige and gray shades can also have a calming effect.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>DutchCrafters colors of the year can help have an impact on creating just the right atmosphere for any room of your home with touches of color to comfort and calm mind and body.<\/p>\n  <div class=\"related-post slider\">\r\n        <div class=\"headline\">Related Posts<\/div>\r\n    <div class=\"post-list owl-carousel\">\r\n\r\n            <div class=\"item\">\r\n          \r\n  <a class=\"title post_title\"  title=\"Wood Types: What is your Furniture Made Of?\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wood-types-furniture-made\/?related_post_from=4373\">\r\n        Wood Types: What is your Furniture Made Of?  <\/a>\r\n\r\n  <div class=\"thumb post_thumb\">\r\n    <a  title=\"Wood Types: What is your Furniture Made Of?\" href=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wood-types-furniture-made\/?related_post_from=4373\">\r\n\r\n      <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1000\" height=\"432\" src=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Wood-Types_1-19.png\" class=\"attachment-full size-full wp-post-image\" alt=\"\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Wood-Types_1-19.png 1000w, https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Wood-Types_1-19-300x130.png 300w, https:\/\/www.dutchcrafters.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/01\/Wood-Types_1-19-768x332.png 768w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1000px) 100vw, 1000px\" \/>\r\n\r\n    <\/a>\r\n  <\/div>\r\n  <p class=\"excerpt post_excerpt\">\r\n    Solid wood furniture has a leg up on the competition.
