Add Colour to Your Home Without Paint
May 2021
Are you looking to add a pop of colour to your home but don’t want the hassle of painting? Whether you are avoiding painting because you live in a rental, you can’t have the added costs, or you simply do not have the time, here are 8 simple ways to add colour without painting to leave your home feeling vibrant and refreshed.
1. Hang a Bold Painting
Add a big bold painting to instantly brighten any room. This pop of colour will become the focal point creating depth and vibrance in your space. When picking your statement piece, remember bigger is better!
2. Throw in Colour
Throw pillows and blankets are a perfect channel to test out your colour choice as they can be easily moved and are relatively low-cost. Try out your most outrageous colour combinations with these décor pieces. Mix and match colours, patterns, and textures to create an energetic atmosphere within your home.
3. Invest in Accent Furniture
Invest in a colourful ottoman, chair, or couch. Bold furniture adds a statement to the dullest of rooms but be sure of your colour choice before making the big purchase. Test colour and texture samples at home with proper lighting so you know this hue is for you.
4. Add Vibrant Curtains
Floor to ceiling curtains instantly brighten your room and add a bold, dramatic look. With the natural light shining on the vibrant curtains, these are sure to be the feature of any room. Plus, with the correct placement, they can make your room and windows feel larger than they are. Check out these tips on how to properly hang your curtains.
5. Display a Bright Rug
Refresh your room from the ground up with a large, bright rug. A bold coloured or a textured, multi-coloured rug is the perfect piece to anchor your room together while adding a flashy touch. Make sure you choose the right sized rug for your space to make it feel open and balanced. Click here for a rug size guideline.
6. Install Lively Wallpaper
You might be staying away from paint, but why not dress up your walls with wallpaper! There is a vast array of bold graphic designs to add colour and style to any wall. Create a feature wall with a funky print or use an elegant textured paper to add depth to your room. For a quick and easy installation try removable wallpaper or wall decals.
7. Pick Flashy Décor Items
Another easy piece to test out your colour choice is décor items. Experiment with colourful lamps, coffee table books, centerpieces, light fixtures, and more. These smaller stylish items can be easily moved throughout the room to keep a balanced, refreshed feel.
8. Decorate with Nature
Nothing adds a pop of colour like greenery. Pick up a fresh bouquet at your local grocery store or fill your home potted plants. These natural colours will brighten up your home and will always be in season. On top of being a stylish décor piece, greenery also has many mental and physical health benefits!

Random Act Of Kindness
Nathan Ho of CENTURY 21 Atria Realty Inc. in Toronto, did a “Random Acts of Kindness” to say thank you to his building staff working during these uncertain times. He noticed the concierge and other staff working to keep the building secure and clean while everyone else was panicking about the virus, food and supplies. To say thank you for all their hard work, Nathan went out and bought two large pizzas, some chicken wings and bottles of water. Nathan, who has lived in the building for over 3 years, said, “It’s the least I can do just to say to them I am thankful for their continued support, even during this crisis.” Thank you, Nathan for taking the time to show gratitude for essential workers who support and help during the COVID-19 emergency.

Local Food Drive To Help Families & Kids In Need
It all started with Daniel Stewart from CENTURY 21 Groupe Opt/Immo in Saint-Sauveur-des-Monts, posting on Facebook offering food to anyone in need during these unusual times, and with the help of a friend, Ashley Tott, the idea was transformed into a full food drive for their surrounding communities. On March 29, 2020, Daniel and Ashley collected non-perhishable food items, picking the donations up outside the donators’ doors to ensure social distancing and to keep their neighbours safe, then brought the large collection to the Garde-Manger. Daniel said, “The food drive was a small gesture so that we could do our part to help those less fortunate.” Daniel—your help goes a long way and is greatly appreciated!
Thank you C21 Canada family for all your hard work to make our world a better place & for continuously delivering the gold standard.
CENTURY 21 United Realty Inc. & Rotary Host 34th Annual Swimming Fundraiser Raising Over $45,000 For Easter Seals And The Rotary Club
On Friday, February 28, 2020, 20 teams braved the cold for the 34th annual Carl Oake Swimathon in Peterborough, ON. With the help of almost 100 swimmers, volunteers, and CENTURY 21 United Realty Inc., the event raised over $45,000 for Easter Seals and the Rotary Club of Peterborough. Since 1987, this event has raised over $1.2 million to help Canadians living with disabilities and to support local initiatives such as the school breakfast programs, the YMCA, and the Rotary Greenway Trail. Please join us in congratulating all participants, volunteers, and donators on another successful Swimathon!
Vanessa Oake Hogan of CENTURY 21 United Realty Inc. co-chaired the event, while her father Carl Oake, the founder of the event, was out of town. Carl started this event 34 years ago by getting his friends and family to donate 10 cents for every lap he swam. This year, his daughter Renee Oake took her father’s place and completed 136 lengths during the event.
This year a local Special Olympics team participated in the Swimathon. Wanting to give back to the organizations that have helped them succeed, they reached out to Vanessa to join this extraordinary event. Not only were they a top fundraising team, but they also swam the entire event while encouraging other participating teams.
“I am so grateful for the people of Peterborough coming together to give back to this community. With them braving the cold in their swimsuits and wacky outfits, we were able to raise over $45,000 to help our neighbours and Easter Seals participants” – Vanessa Oake Hogan, CENTURY 21 United Realty Inc.
