monday color combo

happy monday readers. i love gray. you do too, i know cuz you have told me. i have color combo'd it many, many times. here, here and here. oh and here. this combo of RED and gray boders on too 80's to be good. but..BUT it can be pretty. as we have seen in previous posts gray can pretty much rock any color. and with red i think the gray tempers it. and on the flip side of that red can bring some life to the coldness of an all gray room.

monday color combo

i know many out there either love blue or hate blue. i am a lover. lately i am head over heels for dark blue, midnight, navy, peacock...so blue it almost looks black. delicious. blue works a right treat with brown. and sure, many of you also say..."oh that combo was sooo 2 years ago". and you would be right. but i think b/c there are so many shades of blue and brown it can stay fresh and relevant. like turquoise and milk chocolate, sable and slate blue, midnight and camel. throw in some kelly or lime green and you have fresh and current. you feel me.

today's combo is sadly too small. at the risk of inundating you with crafty etsy lavender and orange rucksacks i chose a smaller gathering of photos. truthfully there just isn't a lot of lavender, violet or purple paired with orange, peach or ochre in the world of interiors. too bad, i think it's such a lovely pair.

i still love it. gray and yellow is one of my favorites. please don't go away gray and yellow. you are the happy and the dismal. the wow and the drab. the drunk and the sober. the fall leaves in the pavement......
