Color Inspiration




I felt like my living and dining rooms just look too beige. I tend to like subdued colors, so I had the desire to liven things up a bit. My dd lent me some pillows she made and I'm using those as color inspiration. Color is a good way to pull a room together. You don't always have to have a theme. I can't spend money so I just looked all around my house for things with the colors in the pillows and this is some of what I've done so far. It feels much better. I'm not through, but I got waylayed by my upstairs, I've been tearing it apart.

You know I always feel so much better just redoing my house a little with what I have. It looks lovely!

Those touches of red are nice in your living room. Thanks for stopping by Porch Days. I am having such fun photographing the wildlife! Your pictures are always nice.

It's always fun to "shop" in your own house. Makes you appreciate what you have when you see it in a new light! The touches of red really liven things up!
