Add one of the brightest 2014 color trends to your home by incorporating pops of yellow.
Traditionally, yellow has not been a popular color to decorate with in U.S. homes–it has been more of a common color in European homes. In U.S. homes, when yellow has been used in decor, it is more often used for bathrooms, in the kitchen or for children’s rooms. Yellow has been one of the hottest 2014 color trends though and it can be found popping up all over.
One of the best ways to experiment with 2014 color trends, rather than committing wholly, is to add pops of color. That way you can try out a trend without having to completely redo your decor. In addition, it’s a way to add visual interest and color without overwhelming your decor.
