THE C0LOR RULES- “sited from KJ's Upholstery”• Rule One: Family is Always Welcome. Most colors look great with shades

from the same family as themselves—reds go with other reds, greens with greens.

• Rule Two: Next Door Neighbors are Friends. You can also use colors from next door on the color wheel—in the case of red, that’s orange and violet.

• Rule Three: Opposites Attract. Every color has a natural color on the opposite side of the color wheel— that’s why red and green look so good together.
