Dear Melissa:
My boyfriend’s apartment is blue, blue, blue. You’d think there weren’t any other colors out there. I’d like to make it look better. A.S., TN
Dear A.:
Are you sure you want to do this? More importantly, are you sure HE wants you to do this? If he’s amenable to suggestions, tell him that peach/terracotta/pumpkin accents will warm up his color scheme; bright yellow will give it a French Country look; and greens/violets will continue the restful theme. A monochromatic color scheme doesn’t have to be boring, however; just suggest that he vary the shades of blue and add lots of texture.
I wish you both luck with this. M.A.K.
