Color Tuesday! Yellow!

Loving yellow right now!  It's such a happy color and pairs nicely with others.  Yellow is a cheery, happy color, but also attention grabbing.  So a little bit goes a long way!  Its welcoming and warm and makes a great accent color in any room!

Monday is organization day!

What is small and can take over your home in a matter of minutes??? TOYS!!!  They seem to be every where you look or shoved into every nook and cranny your child can find.  I found some cool solutions to toy storage that look great and can be done on any budget!

It is best to go with a basket or a bucket in this situation (easy for the kids to throw in the toys).  Any size book shelf will do, or get someone you know to help you make a bench with storage slots underneath!  Pick up some bins that tie into your space, you could even use chalk board paint/tags to create a label for your child to remember which toys go in which bins.  Happy organizing!

Cute patterned fabric bins!  Love the picture wall!

Colorful organization that adds a splash of color!

Love these storage baskets and focal wall!

Cool find friday! Friendly Front Doors

A front door is the first thing you see when you're going to someones home.  So why not make is a reflection of you!  I love the bright colors that are so popular right now, and all the possibilities to use them.  If you're worried about a bright color, get creative with your house numbers, paint them or choose a fun font!  There are countless possibilities for your entry area!  Paint your door a fun bright color, it will stand out and it just looks so welcoming!

A very popular color for spring, Emerald Green!

                                                A personal favorite of mine, Teal Blue!

                                    A classy red door is always great, love the house numbers!

So fun and feminine!

                                         Great color and adorable house numbers!

Spring is almost here, time for those bright colors to come out!

Design Tip Thursday!

Break away from the usual collection of picture frames or arrange them in a new way on the wall.  A picture wall can be a COOL focal point in a room.  It can be in colorful frames or mounted in an unusual arrangement.  Be creative with your photos and make it a statement piece!

Use  photo mats to tie in other colors from the room.

Think of a creative way to hang your photos!

Add sayings or words in with your photo arrangement.

Inspiration Wednesday!

What inspires you?  One thing that ALWAYS inspires me, is something most people take for granted.  Rain!  I love it, the reflections in the rain puddles and bright colored umbrellas.  I am always inspired creatively when it rains!  Most of the time its through art, but I just think it is beautiful.  All together, nature is a beautiful and inspiring thing, if you take the time to appreciate all of its beauty.

Color Tuesday! Spring colors!

I am obsessing right now over...PURPLE!  So glad it is finding its place in the world.  Purple is a color that evokes royalty and richness.  It can be used for a fun bright pop of color or a deep luxurious color.  If you like the color purple, try it with some throw pillows or an accent chair!  So many possibilities for pairing it with other colors, yellow would be fun for a bright, fun room and grey and eggplant would be gorgeous for a more rich deep toned room.  Either way, if you want to try new colors coming out for spring, try them through accents.  They're easily changed when your next favorite color comes along!

Spring Cleaning is almost here! Organization Monday!

It's almost that wonderful time, spring cleaning!  Time to organize your home after the craziness of the holidays.  So, I thought today, I would talk about how you can really make your home look organized and stylish!  Today, they are making so many cute storage products like patterned storage bins.  Storage isn't something that has to be tucked away, make it a statement in the room.  You can get all shapes, sizes and colors of storage boxes now, so coordinate it with the room you are organizing or use it as a fun pop of color!  By using fun storage ideas, it makes your space more pleasant to be in and easier on the eye.  Also, get creative with your storage vessels, use candle holders or tumblers to hold smaller items like pencils and pens.  Make your space functional and fun to be in!  Happy organizing!  

Storage bins should reflect the look of the room!

Try tying in your storage to an existing space with pops of color!

Use all kinds of storage solutions to suite your needs!
