Have you ever picked a paint color for a room and then realized you didn't enjoy being in that room anymore?  I have (more than once)!  When I was in college (early 2000's, yikes!) it was trendy to paint a single wall of a room red.  Although, to be honest, I can't remember if it was actually a trend, or if I saw it in a Sex and The City episode and mistakenly thought it was a good idea.   Either way, the color didn't work for my bedroom, and I never enjoyed being in the room.     This week on The Healthy Home Design podcast, color expert Mehnaz Khan explains why red probably isn't the best choice for bedrooms and so much more.     Mehnaz talks about how the colors you choose for your home will affect your emotions.  This is fundamental when creating a home designed to help you reduce stress and improve well-being.    Mehnaz also goes into the color traits of many colors, helping you figure out what color will be right for the different rooms in your house.  Having this information is a great starting place if you are planning on making over any rooms in your home.   To get you started on choosing colors, Mehnaz created a color workbook that'll help you understand your color preferences.     Links:
