How to introduce color to your space

Summer is quickly approaching. With all of the beautiful bright colors out there, it so easy to add that pop of color to your home decor.  Not sure how to go about choosing a color? A little nervous? Don't be afraid. Many times, we're more open to buying a beautiful handbag or shoes but our living space is so vanilla. Well, here's a sure fire way to slowly introduce color to your home.  Simply go to your closet and see what color pops up the most (besides black or cream) and use that as your pop of color. Perhaps you see a fabulous designer handbag in a magazine.  Whatever color makes you feel happy is the color you should use. For instance, I just met a fabulous client that LOVES Gucci. She wanted to create a home office that represents her passion for color. This is why I decided to write this blog. Here, I used Gucci as an inspiration. The key is not overpower the space with a bright color but to use it sparingly and everything else can be neutral.

Whatever your inspiration, have fun with it. Take a minute to look at my "Portfolio" page to see which items I chose for my client's office.
 
Until next time...keep decorating,
