Color Infusion

I'm loving these bookcases with navy blue painted on the back of them.  This is a great way to showcase color in your home without painting an entire wall with it.  The blue looks great here with the green walls as well.  Take note that all the furnishings are neutral.  If your wall colors are bright and colorful, then stick with neutral furnishings so the room doesn't look too crazy and colorful.
