"bring on the Blues"

The new home design magazines all arrived the other day and I was overjoyed with the advertisements...especially fashion advertising..they were all filled with blue. Rich and Royal. The saturated hues that we have not seen for several years. It is exciting because if it is in apparel this season we will begin to see it in home furnishings next season...they fallow each other...

Blues are season less colors and work well with the foliage colors when used with the deep teal tones to rich navy/purple tones...it can really liven up a sage or bronze/gold palette...and what would a spring pallet be with out crisp blues with yellows and fresh Greens.

There is also historic significance to the return of the Blues...In times when we want to feel confident, secure with a sense of well being we tend towards these colors...could the discomfort of the financial disaster be coming to an end? Works for me...bring on the blues...


Also you will note several new "before and afters" on the web site and there are several works in progress that we will have completed and displayed by the end of the year...
