A Little Color Goes A Long Way

While usually I prefer more muted interiors, sometimes it is nice to look at rooms with a punch, especially in February....
Are you a color person or more on the muted side?

  1. I'm more muted - neutral walls and furniture with small pops of color here and there. I'm loving that breakfast nook though!

  5. I am more of a muted color person with pops of color here and there. But, I have to say that office area makes me smile on this snowy morning here in DC!

  6. I am DEFINITELY a color person, although in decorating my first home with my fiance I am finding myself drawn to more muted spaces that could grow with us over time. I have found that a nice yellow (not too bright, not too beige) can be a nice compromise working as both a neutral and color.

  7. Well, you know I love color! What beautiful images, especially on this dreary, rainy morning in Texas.

  8. I love it when people are gutsy enough to decorate with bold colors. The yellow bookcases are just fantastic. And none of these rooms are overdone -- they just seem bright and cheery.

  9. I generally lean toward muted, but I am LOVING those yellow built-ins (and I usually don't even like yellow!).

  10. I usually prefer more muted colors, but b/c of a red chair that made it's way to our living room, I'm starting to incorporate more color and really liking it.

    These pics are great inspirations for me.
