RED is powerful. Energetic. Confident. She’s daring and bold, walking with her head held high. RED is vibrant and attention seeking, clamoring for you to sit up and take notice! ❤️🔥 Red is everything but neutral.  
Customize with YOUR shade of RED.If you've read my other blogs, you know how much I LOVE... Pillows and Throws!From our Surya Collection.... RED and gorgeous! And don't forget the walls!From our Uttermost Art Collection    Ready to talk RED? |
 | "How wonderful yellow is. It stands for the sun." -Vincent Van Gogh The sun falls across everything! Yellow rays warm us, grow our lawns and flowers, and brighten our days especially after many rainy ones. |
| Yellow is like the friendliest person you know! It mixes easily with many others. What a relief it is to have such a happy and flexible color in your home! Even children "see" the colors that easily work with yellow. Let's explore some of my favorite combinations... |  |

| | Yellow is the color of flowers, lemons, and sunshine…fresh in every way! Yellow speaks of friendliness and approachability, warmth and honesty. It is the color of light, hope and encouragement and marks the very beginning of Autumn! We should all bring optimism into our homes with a little to a lot of yellow. |

  | Shabby chic celebrates well-aged interiors but it’s also all about beginning new stories. Mixing pieces you already have and love with new furniture and accessories in pastel palettes - pinks, pale blues, creams and beiges - will give you the "old is new" look of shabby chic! Dream-like colors give you the romantic, feminine feel of shabby chic. Its a hydrangea palette! |

 In Tranquil (Pictured above) Shhhhhhhhhh.....Top Secret is a multi-yarn texture that packs in a lot of look. A heathered filament yarn, a polyester slub yarn, and a straight spun yarn are woven together on a dimensional heathered warp for tons of texture. |  In Bisque The rich, piece dyed colors of this layered, warp knit velvet pair gracefully with other patterns. Casting an appearance of style and elegance, a modernized configuration of Pinsonic stitch points enhance the subtle complexity of i-Toggle. |  In Whisper An expression of creative influence, Alexa is a colorful print with all the translucency and luminance of watercolor. Playful, with a light and easy feel, Alexa puts a fresh spin on a floral motif. |

Shabby chic doesn’t have an official flower, but if it did, it would have to be the hydrangea. Its modest, yet gorgeous clusters are a mainstay in vases. |

 | We all know that it’s a bit tricky to decorate a room with orange 👀 because it's such a bold color! It is the color of joy and creativity, and reminds us of wonderful things like sunsets and pumpkins! How do we temper such a strong color in a room? |

| Sienna: This transitional design has a casual feel thanks to the novelty slub yarn. The sheen from the yarns in the figure adds sophistication and gives this fabric a wonderful hand. Twinkle Twinkle provides a modern, pop of color for a stunning accent. |  |

| | IMAGINE having a room with hues that create and hold all of these feelings...

YES. Invite PURPLE in to join LIME GREEN. Pairing these two colors creates an exciting balance in a room. I’ve often wondered why that works so well, but then… they ARE complimentary colors on the color wheel. Plus, when I think of #reallygoodthings, I see a lot of green and purple. Key Lime Pie (Green), Blackberry Cobbler (purple), Margaritas (Green), Blackberry Mojitas (Purple), Hydrangeas (Purple & Green), Mardi Gras (Purple and Green)…. Lime Sherbert, Raspberry Tea... the list is rich and long! This color combination is all around us!

| | "There is only one thing in life worse than being talked about, and that is NOT being talked about." Oscar Wilde As I designer, I believe a room should be so dynamic that it is TALKED ABOUT! So, I insert something STUNNING into my designs when decorating a room! |

THE HISTORY OF "LIMELIGHT"
In the early 1800's, theater stages were lit by heating a cylinder of the mineral called lime — the result was an intensely bright white light. The word limelight came to have its figurative meaning of "at the center of attention" in 1877. |
