Paint Your Crown Molding

Paint an Accent Wall

Add a little pop or pizzaz with an accent wall. You can add accent walls to every room in your house if you choose. Again, this can be as subtle or as dramatic as you want! Benjamin Moore has great tools and iPhone apps to help you find exactly what you're looking for. Below is an example from their website. Is this something up your alley?
