Accessories and Paint Personalize a New Construction Home

Moving into a new construction home is amazing in itself, but owners can easily personalize their digs with paint and carefully chosen accessories. Buying a newly built home comes with benefits like warranties and brand new everything, but no home is complete without a personal style infusion. An owner who wants to make his property stand out from similar models can go the extra mile to have a new place that feels like it is truly home.

One of the most cost-effective, simplistic ways to give homes personality is paint. Depending upon the materials of your new construction home, paint can usually be used both on the exterior as well as the interior. And the great thing is- paint is not permanent; if you don't like it, you can always change it again and again. Consider painting the front door, shutters or trim to highlight architectural elements or enhance curb appeal. Infuse character inside when you personalize wall colors. If some colors seem too bold, try painting an accent wall to add a pop of color. Learn some of the tricks when experts share their tips on choosing interior colors.

Accessories are a great way to add even more color to a new house. And if the paint colors are just the way you want them or too much color frightens you, accessories work well too. Unique house numbers, pretty flowers, potted plants flanking the entryway, a custom mailbox and window boxes are all ways to personalize a house outside. Pillows, window coverings, artwork, linens, furniture, knick-knacks and house plants help turn a model home into your home. Mix and match, have fun and use your creativity because your new construction home should look just the way you want it to.
