As we head into the third quarter of this year, it’s time to look ahead to 2025! If you’ve been thinking about selling your home, now is the perfect time to start thinking about how to prepare it for next year’s market.
A fresh coat of paint is one of the easiest and most impactful ways to give your home a modern, updated feel, and color trends play a huge role in setting the tone. The colors of the year for 2025 are all about boldness and expression. Think vibrant hues that make a statement, like deep jewel tones or striking, high-contrast combinations. These colors often reflect a desire for creativity and individuality, encouraging us to embrace our unique styles. Let’s explore some of the standout shades that could transform your space and make it market-ready.

Glidden’s Purple Basil is such a captivating choice for their color of the year! Its rich, welcoming tone can really transform a space, adding depth and warmth. Whether used as an accent wall, in furniture, or decor, it can seamlessly blend with both traditional and modern styles. Pairing it with neutral colors or metallics could enhance its vibrancy, while earth tones can create a cozy, grounded feel. How do you envision incorporating Purple Basil into your space?

Is purple too bold for you? Quietude from Sherwin-Williams seems like a perfect choice for creating serene and calming environments. Its soft sage hue with a hint of blue can really enhance the tranquility of a space, making it ideal for both interiors and exteriors. Whether it's in a cozy living room or a peaceful garden, this color seems versatile and timeless. No wonder HGTV named it their color of the year! Could Quietude make its way into your home?
The Perfect Backdrop

For more neutral tones, a classic white never goes out of style. White paint is a timeless choice that can make a space feel bright, airy, and open. It serves as a perfect backdrop for any decor style, allowing other colors and textures to shine. Plus, it’s versatile enough to work in both modern and traditional settings. I've always loved Pure White and Alabaster, both from Sherwin-Williams.
