If you want a strong color for the carpet, then the color options for the walls will be limited. However, light or muted tones: such as pale blues, greys, or greens, allow for more versatility in wall color.<\/p>\n<p>Another step to consider is that you should pick a color from your furniture or draperies. If you choose a darker shade of that hue, then the room will feel more comfortable. If you choose a lighter shade, then the room will feel more open. If the room faces west or south, a warm color will make the room feel hotter. A cool color will make the room feel more refreshing and relaxing.<\/p>\n<p>For more impact, you could choose a patterned carpet. A floral pattern can be formal or informal, depending on what the design is. Patterned carpet is a great choice if you have children or pets. The colors and patterns will hide any spills or stains.<\/p>\n<p>If picking a color or a pattern is not for you, then choosing a neutral carpet is the way to go. Neutral carpets make a room feel more spacious, and your focus will be the room&#8217;s furnishings more. Neutrals that have specks of dark brown or taupe will hide dirt, and they also work well in high traffic areas. Whether you choose a color, a pattern, or a neutral, just be creative and have fun decorating your home.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/www.carpetexpress.com\/carpet\/residential-pcid-66.html\" target=\"_blank\">Click here<\/a> to see our collection of carpet.<\/p>\n<p style=\"text-align: center;\"><a href=\"http:\/\/uht.ebb.myftpupload.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/blog-neutral.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-medium wp-image-1143 aligncenter\" src=\"http:\/\/uht.ebb.myftpupload.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/blog-neutral-300x300.jpg\" alt=\"blog neutral\" width=\"300\" height=\"300\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.carpetexpress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/blog-neutral-300x300.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.carpetexpress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/blog-neutral-150x150.jpg 150w, https:\/\/www.carpetexpress.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2014\/04\/blog-neutral.jpg 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<!-- AddThis Advanced Settings generic via filter on the_content --><!-- AddThis Share Buttons generic via filter on the_content -->","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"The first step in picking a color for your carpet is to decide how much of an impact&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":1925,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[15],"tags":[103,203],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.carpetexpress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1141"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.carpetexpress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.carpetexpress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.carpetexpress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1925"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.carpetexpress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=1141"}],"version-history":[{"count":11,"href":"https:\/\/www.carpetexpress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1141\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":2201,"href":"https:\/\/www.carpetexpress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/1141\/revisions\/2201"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.carpetexpress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=1141"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.carpetexpress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=1141"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.carpetexpress.com\/blog\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=1141"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
