It seems like we have two camps when it comes to decorating. Right now it is really popular to have an all white room, shabby chic and void of any color. Then we have the homes that are filled with color and pattern from top to bottom. I am more into the middle of these two, (a little color and pattern), but I am getting braver and using more and more color too.
I love seeing others use fabulous colors and patterns in their homes. It makes their spaces so interesting and inviting. Some of my favorite bloggers have a knack for creating such great color schemes and using pattern in such effective ways.
Now isn’t this just the happiest room? Jennifer at Dimples and Tangles is not the least bit afraid of color or pattern and her home is fabulous. How could you not be happy surrounded by these colors and patterns.
Green is her favorite color and she mixes it well with the navy and black in her entry.
Now how about these color and patterns from KariAnne at Thistlewood Farm
and this chest she did just screams fun.
Then there is Kristin from Bliss @ Home and how she uses pattern on her walls. I love the stenciled wall and the stripes she added to her entry.
She’s not afraid of color either, as you can see in her bedroom.
I love how Beth at Home Stories A to Z has both going on. Her family area and kitchen are more into the white/neutral family. However some of her other rooms are filled with color. Don’t you love this darker blue with touches of yellow for her boys room.
I think this is such a happy room, full of color. Her guest bedroom doubles as her office too. Now who wouldn’t be happy to spend time in here.
These ladies all have more style in their little finger than I have in my whole body. I love seeing what they come up with next. If you aren’t familiar with their blogs, you definitely need to go visit. They have tons of diy and thrifty projects they share and you will definitely be inspired.
So tell me, what camp are you in. Color, middle or white?
