"  Neutral hues can be a strong foundation for a lovely and serene space, but this bedroom proves that opposite can also be true. Oh my, that&amp;#039;s a whole lotta tan. And after two decades of living with it, Marty (the blogger behind Marty&amp;#039;s Musings) realized the heavy-on-the-brown look just wasn&amp;#039;t making her happy anymore. There&amp;#039;s a reason why you&amp;#039;ve heard the advice &amp;quot;add a pop of color&amp;quot; on repeat \u2014 it brings a room to life! In redesiging this master bedroom, Marty actually stuck with neutrals (soft gray walls, white bedding), but added coral and patterned accents that instantly modernized the space. And the best part? Everything new in the room was a garage sale find or DIY project. Repositioning the bed was a no-cost improvement that instantly opened up the layout, and louvered closet doors became a new, quirky headboard. She even painted the furniture herself (a somewhat risky move), but smartly chose a shabby-chic whitewash look that didn&amp;#039;t require perfection.
