Happy holidays! The most wonderful time of the year is here to remind us of one thing: it’s time to decorate. Transforming your home for the holiday season doesn’t have to be a hassle—we are here with holiday interior painting ideas that will refresh and elevate your home for maximum impact without maximum frustration.
Interior painting is a practical option for rejuvenating your home in a way that will bring good cheer and warm times to any living space. Read on to learn how to drastically improve your home’s drab walls with cozy colors you can enjoy all year.
Why Professional Interior Painting is Perfect for the Holidays
Hot cocoa is bubbling in a pot on the stove. The tree is decorated. Your home is filled with the holidays’ sights, smells, and sounds, and guests are about to arrive. Is there anything you forgot to do?
Don’t leave the most important aspect of holiday decorating to the last minute. With the holidays just weeks away, you must answer the important question: Is your home ready?
You have too much on your plate. Buying presents, making a list and checking it twice, and creating a bountiful feast. With so much on your plate, you need professional interior painters. Let’s break down how professional painters can make your home beautiful for the holidays, and why you should choose them over going the DIY route.
Fresh Interior Paint Offers a Drastic Improvement
Who has time for a full remodel or holiday home improvements? Remodeling takes time and can render sections of your home unusable for days and weeks. The professionals know how to handle the painting process quickly and efficiently, updating your rooms one by one so that you can still use your home without losing precious days that are better spent prepping for the holidays.
Professional painters will offer you recommendations for your home and focus on the high-traffic areas, such as hallways, kitchens, entryways, and staircases, giving your home an immediate and dynamic look that will impress Grandma and Grandpa. Ask your contractor, they might have their own holiday interior painting ideas!
Professional Painting Is Structured and Efficient
One option is to leave the details—such as the ceilings, walls, and trim—to your contractor, even if you’ve already begun your project. Certainly, parts of the project will be the most important to you, such as colors and scheduling, but after that, you can let the professionals take over and focus elsewhere. This is an invaluable service, especially during a busy time of the year when we become overwhelmed with schedules and lists.
A Professional Paint Job Is Guaranteed to Look Professional
This one might speak for itself, and you might even be a decent painter, but unless you’re a trained and skilled craftsperson with years of experience (and the right tools) tackling a home painting project during the holidays might not be the best decision. Professional painters can take your space to the next level, adding details you didn’t even consider.
Tackling holiday building upgrades on your own can be a chore. Better surface preparation, perfect coverage, sharp edges, crisp lines…the devil is in the details, and we want our holidays to be warm and bright. Holiday interior painting ideas can be managed easier when you’re focusing on specific details and not bogged down by painting.
Use Low-Odor Paint Products
Anyone who has ever been in a craftsman store knows that it can be a bit overwhelming. Places like Lowe’s or Home Depot are certainly magical when it comes to DIY projects, but do you know what paint is right for your particular project? Some paints are better for tight spaces and particular surfaces, and you don’t want to waste time and money when you need to prep and paint bedrooms. There are modern, high-quality paints with low odor and high durability, and the professionals know which ones to use. Let them grab the right materials for the job so you can focus on more important details like color, shade, and accents.
Top Holiday Interior Painting Ideas
Warm, Cozy Colors
Warmth is the key when considering holiday colors. For living spaces, such as dining rooms, living rooms, dens, and entryways, you want to create a sense of invitation and coziness. This color scheme typically includes tans, browns, ochres, and other soft colors that remind people of the comforts of hearth and home.
ProServ Pro Tip:
Get Your Kitchen Ready
You’ve probably noticed this yourself: people tend to gravitate toward the kitchen. It doesn’t matter if your living room is the most decorated, welcoming, beautiful place in your entire home, everyone is going to congregate in the kitchen for conversation, regardless if there is a meal present. The kitchen might be the last place you want people to be, and you can cover up the messes with a new coat of paint.
ProServ Pro Tip:
For kitchens, finishes matter more than color. You want to use a semi-gloss or glossy finish that’s durable, allowing you to scrub your kitchen walls after you cook a big meal or spill another batch of cookie dough.
Paint An Accent Wall or Ceiling
Accent walls are a great option if you don’t feel like painting the entirety of a room. Tasteful reds and beautiful browns are popular with homeowners because they stay relevant year-round, even though they might look especially festive between Thanksgiving and Christmas. Spruce up your accent wall rooms with seasonal decorations, such as yellows in autumn, whites in summer, and greens in winter. Ask your contractor for more holiday interior painting ideas!
ProServ Pro Tip:
The ceiling is the “fifth wall” of any room, and homeowners can forget how much of a difference a coat of paint can make. Painting your ceilings can make a room feel bigger or smaller depending on color and detail, and ProServ color experts can ensure you get the effect you’re looking for.
Freshen a Guest Room
Repainting your guest bedroom is a great idea especially if family are staying over for the holidays. A whole new look and a fresh color can help your guest room become even more appealing and delightful. Invest in your guest area and show your loved ones you value them and that you’re happy they decided to stay with you. Everyone loves a place that feels comfortable and pleasant.
ProServ Pro Tip:
Choose specific colors that create the atmosphere you want to offer your guests. A sunny yellow room can be bright and cheerful, and a red or brown room can offer a cozy respite during the winter. Create a peaceful retreat with softer earth tones, and decorate the room around the newly painted color by placing down a bedspread that compliments these new details.
Spruce Up Your Bathroom
Here’s a little secret: your bathroom is the most visited place in your home and is the mark of true hospitality. You might have a main downstairs bathroom or a guest bedroom on the second floor, or perhaps there’s a shared bath in between the rooms in your hallway. Bathrooms are relatively small space-wise, and you can stretch your budget by repainting one. They’re also a quick job to have repainted, and the transformation can be amazing!
