So it looks like yellow is going to be the new trendy color for spring. I'm actually kind of excited because I've really been liking it lately! I don't know if my own house could take it, or if I'd would actually use it, but I love seeing it in other interiors. One interior that will be able to use it in however, is our new camper! How accidentally trendy is this...

(Photo taken by my hubby of course ;))

When Merrick showed me the picture of this beauty I was automatically super stoked about the yellow banding on the outside! I'm hoping I can bring some more yellow into the interior in the curtains and wallpaper on back wall behind the sink. I would also like to paint the cabinets a shade of white and maybe trim the cabinet molding in a shade of yellow. I think it will be really fun to update the camper with a more modern flare while still keeping it's retro roots!

Funky Finds

I'm totally captivated by these fun, unique vintage finds. These are perfect examples of what a little paint and elbow grease can do!

Flower Power

 HAPPY NEW YEAR! I have been saving this to post, but got into Christmas decorations... I'll start off 2010 with these unique flower arrangements via Apartment Therapy, but you can find more here. I just thought these were really cool vignettes of flower arrangements, some less practical than others, but very aesthetic! They really take it beyond just the flowers in a vase to a more spacial arrangement and how they all interact together. Cool huh!

 

 

Gorgeous Darling!

I can't really say anything about these images except that they are perfectly beautiful.

The NEW Red and Green

Here's a little modern for your Christmas color...

 

 

(Pictures from House Beautiful)

Color of Christmas: SILVER

d gold's metallic companion: SILVER. Beware of combining these two in interiors. I would advise one or the other for the best visual impact. With metals, you want to stick to similar surrounding finishes, especially in bathrooms where you have light fixtures, plumbing fixtures, and cabinet hardware. Ok, so now that you've gotten your factoid for today (which you may have already known) enjoy the beautiful pictures below...
