Why do these pictures look pretty?
hint: Blue and Orange
hint: red and green
hint: purple and yellow
These pictures are objects taken right from nature. They look good because they consist of complimentary colors. They "compliment” each other. If you find these colors in nature, you can't go wrong. Try them in your home in different shades, tone and hues! Use the full color for an accent. Mix and match!










Hi, thank you for adding yourself as a follower on my blog. How nice to find a color specialist. I may need to ask you a question sometime about what color to use on my built-ins in my great room if I decide to paint them.
ReplyDeleteI would love to pick a color for your great room Kim! Let me know when you're ready.
ReplyDeleteOk Donna this is getting weird because not only do we have the same taste, I live 20 minutes from Charlotte NC, and color is my thing...at least that is what people tell me, and I have helped picked people's interior colors for years now. I have ventured and dabbled in interior design, but never made it a career, more of a hobby and fun thing for me!!~ You do an awesome job!~ I appreciate you finding my blog and look forward to coming over to yours to see what you come up with to inspire me!!~:) Debbie
ReplyDeleteI'm actually in Wesley Chapel so I'm about 20 min from Charlotte as well! I was looking around to see what blogs I can find that are local to Charlotte and I came across yours - being a Color Specialist, I LOVE your blog colors. Please send your NC blog friends over to me. I would prefer to follow blogs in this area - I also want to check out all the great colors and decor they have : )
ReplyDeleteI look forward to reading your blog some more too!

ReplyDeleteHi there, I just wanted you to know I posted a mini home tour I would love for you too see. You can get an idea of color on my end and tell me what you think:):) Debbie
ReplyDeleteP.S. I am new at blogging as well, so I do not know anyone in the Charlotte area. I have one follower who is in Charlotte, but she does not have a blog. I know she is a kitchen specialist though....
