ORANGE YOU GLAD I'M POSTING AGAIN?


Hey Followers! 

I know it's been awhile since I have posted!  Sometimes life gets so busy, you really have to look for those spare moments where you can truly let your mind escape to your "creative land" and time to allow yourself to become inspired. As a creative individual, I find it hard to be brilliantly creative, under stress and limited amounts of time.  Tonight, I have found a spare hour after work to let my mind free, and along with a cup of tea, it feels great! 

Today, I have started a new project, and the gears are turning in my head! To let you in on a little bit of this new project, I am thinking orange! Orange is not a color I gravitate naturally towards, or use often; however, it is the desired color of the client! Orange is a very interesting color to me. A combination of red and yellow, so vibrant. It denotes energy, warmth, and the sun. But orange seems less in intensity or aggression than red, calmed by the cheerfulness of yellow. To me, orange says a summer night with spicy chicken curry, and sunsets.  

Here's what inspires me and images I'm thinking of using! Enjoy!



Using color in small amounts is a good way to introduce strong hues into your home.




Orange, the happy cheerful color. We often overlook using orange as we find it bright and bold and too brilliant to use in our homes.
But wait, where does peach and apricot come from? Yes, the color orange. They are a tint of orange. Now you can see that we do actually use orange a lot in our interiors!
Feeling inspired yet?






Throw around some bright orange cushions to brighten up a dull color scheme, add some orange flowers to a vase to enliven the room.




Orange is a popular color choice for teenager children’s bedrooms, as it is happy and active and has anti depressive properties!



Orange can also be quite classy, when used properly ;) 

That's all for now!
