Tuesday Tips – Monochrome painting

2/19/2013

Let’s talk about one coloured walls today. I don’t mean just simply painting a wall in one colour, but also adding for example shelves or letters. Monochrome painting. If you want to make a letter statement, but don’t want it to stick out too much, simply paint the letters the same colours as the wall.

The same goes for shelves. If you want to draw attention to what’s on the shelves, more than the shelves themselves, paint the shelves the same colour as the wall just like here. It looks like the shelves are a part of the wall.

It also looks great here with empty frames.

You can even paint your whole kitchen the same colour.

I also love this styling, but it’s maybe a bit unpractical with painted cutlery..

I’m looking forward to trying monochrome painting. Would you have a go?!
Hope you’ll be back next Tuesday for more Tuesday Tips
Have a nice day!

  1. The blanck kid's room is original. I'm not sure I would choose this color. But I love all the other pictures.

    I did monochrome painting at home to have my desk in the same colour of the wall and the result is stunning. A workspace in the dining-room isn't that pretty, but this way it's part of the wall 😉 Good tips Hege xx

  6. Good tip Hege and I love these photos! I love the kitchen, because the furniture pops out so beautiful like this.

    Yes, the kitchen is beautiful, but I love especially the first picture. I'm going to paint one of my walls in grey, I will paint a few frames in the same color and test it!

  8. Wonderful photos, and good ideas. Hadn't really thought of doing it like that – e.g. 3 D letters in the same color as the wall. It looks really nice!
