COLOR HOUSE WITH YOUR PERSONALITY For years psychologists have been demonstrating how colors affect our lives, and how our choice of colors - reflects interesting little fa- cets of our personalities.

If you like a casual life- style, you would probably be more comfortable with “countrified” furniture styles, But, if you plan on a great deal of elegant enter- taining, you'll probably be happier with more formal laoks, There are three basic furniture styles: traditional, country and contemporary.
