Paint in a hue, not necessarily the same color
Periwinkle is a bright and especially daring color, so to cover your interiors without feeling too exaggerated choose a hue (tint) or a tone (tone) of this color; that is, peri reduced with white or gray, respectively. You can apply it in small doses, such as the wall of a dresser, on the ceiling of a living room or hallway to draw attention upwards. You can also go for the lighter shade of periwinkle, such as iced periwinkle, like paint for a whole room.
Add impact accents
Periwinkle can create a gorgeous pop of color in an otherwise neutral room. Incorporate this lively tone through an accent of impact, such as a large piece of art or an upholstered chair.
Dare with peri accessories
There are many ways to experiment with Very Peri without committing to a new paint color or investing in new furniture. Start with a purple flower vase, artwork with a periwinkle palette, a violet tinted glassware set, or a coffee table book with a purple cover. Live with color for a while, and if you like the way it looks, consider making periwinkle a more important part of your color scheme.
Pair Periwinkle With Nature Inspired Shades
Since this shade often appears in flower gardens, it is not surprising that periwinkle harmonizes with other colors drawn from nature. Try it in a palette of analogous colors like sky blue and spring green for a soft and serene look.
Try the periwinkle outdoors
This vivid color is sure to make your home stand out from the street. Energize a neutral exterior by using periwinkle as an accent color on shutters, trim, or the front door. Go bold with a paint color similar to Very Peri, or tone it down with a shade that incorporates a lot of gray.
