Colonial-Inspired Updates

New England homes are known for their colonial architecture and classic appeal. To achieve a timeless look, consider colors like Cranberry Sauce, Fresh Mustard, and Hollow Hill. Using chalk-style paints, you can give furniture a cozy, distressed look that complements autumn décor.


Textured Finishes and Patterns

Enhance warmth with rich textures by layering furniture with fabric throws in earthy tones and adding patterned curtains or rugs. Combining chalk paints in subtle, earthy shades with these elements creates a harmonious fall ambience.


DIY Tips for Accent Pieces

Painting small pieces like side tables, shelves, and décor items can add seasonal color without a major renovation. Try using Country Chic Paint’s Green Wise Gold certified chalk paints to achieve a rustic, vintage finish.


With these tips, you can bring the warmth of autumn indoors, creating a welcoming space that's both beautiful and functional. Embrace the charm of New England autumn by transforming your home with colors that echo the season's beauty.
