Whether it's preparing for a quick sale or making your new home your own, fresh painting brings life to every room at such a small cost.

Sharron from Graham's Paint & Paper says Gray is the new black and you can expect this year's palette to incorporate a lot of grayed out colours including colour of the year Violet Verbena.

The colours are comforting, refined and part of a palette of deep saturated hues that offer flexibility in home decorating. The key is to select colour schemes that best reflect your taste and lifestyle, and grays and neutral tones are still front runners!
