Brighten Things Up with Yellow

Booprints, too funny, I just featured that bathroom on Hatch. I emailed Kim and asked her to please please please share it in her houzz account as well so we can use it in ideabooks!


Sweetiepie, don't you just love Rubie Green fabrics?

Kswoot, that is a conundrum. I think as long as you have other neutrals in the room, perhaps on furniture and the floor, you'll avoid having a bumblebee basement!

Comforting to hear people feel the same way about yellow as i do. My 2 story entry way is an intense yellow and I've just painted the rest of my house in contemporary neutral colors and struggling with whether to change the yellow to a more muted colour like taupe just to fit in as another neutral but this idea book comments convince me to keep it yellow, even if it shocks people when they first walk in. It puts a smile on my face and in my soul like the sun does.

Also timely for us. I have to re-do the living room. There are too many colors! I bought a brown leather loveseat, and 2 chairs with mixed browns, beiges. I am going to do the floor in hardwood to match the wood work in my new kitchen. I fell in love with a gold like yellow, now I cannot even imagine any other color. So it will be yellow, beige, and for accent I will use a red, not red like a crayon, but my kitchen mosaic tiles are 3 browns and a pop of red. So i want to carry that into the next room.
