Wrap Your Walls In Luxury—Glossy Paint Adds Sophistication And Elegance
(HIT) - The hottest trend in home decorating is sheen
and shimmer according to the Rohm and Haas Paint Quality Institute
(PQI). Satin and silk-like decorating is growing in popularity from
pillows to bed linens to luxurious textiles. And, as a perfect backdrop
for these rich home accessories, try a new paint finish for your walls
and ceilings.

"Glossy paints are the perfect choices to add sparkle and
shine to living spaces and they provide the added benefit of a durable
finish," offers Debbie Zimmer, decorative painting consultant for the
Rohm and Haas PQI. "Today’s glossier finishes add a subtle
sophistication to any room and compliment current shimmery paint
trends."
Here are four paint enhancements that add pizzazz to any living space:
- Not quite ready to make all your walls glow? Then combine both flat and glossy paint in the same area. For example, paint three walls in your favorite flat hue and the fourth or accent wall in the same color, but in a glossy finish for a light reflecting enhancement created by this simple and easy-to-do change.
- Accent your chandelier and dinner candles by painting a dining room ceiling with a glossy finish.
- The area beneath a chair rail can be enhanced with glossy paint to complement tile, marble, or wood flooring.
- Finally, make your narrow hallway visually expand by painting with a high-sheen paint.
