Using amethyst in your home

Amethyst needs balancing materials. Use it in bedrooms, baths, closets, or an accent cabinet with warm white, taupe, walnut, brass, or deep green. North light makes it cooler and more violet. South light reveals the pink. Test near fabric and tile. Beware the bright edge on broad walls. Fierce Horizon and Shock Fog belong closer to accent work than whole room paint.
