Contemplating Color Combinations!

6 (460x360)


When I am working on a project I like to pull together images that have color combinations that I am contemplating on using. It is fun to see how others combine colors and in a room.

You are about to see different rooms with one of the color combinations I am going to use in my on-going project.

Darling throw and I love the mix of the bright pops of color with the cow hide rug and footstool. Using the wood coffee table ties it all together.

What a fun mix of fabrics. Notice the large scale pattern mixed with the smaller zig-zag pattern on the stool.

We can get our color cues from all kinds of sources. Nature is one of the best sources for color combinations.

  6. I love the very first picture. Just my style. What style are those sofas? Are they English roll arm? That is exactly what I am looking for.

  8. Hi Kathysue, just went through a few posts and I want to do my whole house over in these pretty colors. And I love the urns up on the stands. I could so move into your house. Black and white toile is a favorite.
