Pink and Gray

There are certain color combinations that I am just drawn to, and a pink + gray color palette is one of them!  My personal favorite way these colors are used is in a little girls' nursery.  However, if you twist my arm just enough, I may allow some pink + gray in my bedroom with some brass accents.  Maybe.  ;-)  I like these colors best when kept white in order to maintain an airy feel; but darker variations of this palette can be beautiful, and I love to ogle at those from afar.

Loving this office.  If you haven't checked out the Centsational Girl blog, you should take this moment to do so -- amazing!

How do you like this color palette?  Dark?  Light?  In a nursery?  In a living room?

Orange & Blue = Love

I really love an orange and blue color palette.  Although I am not quite bold enough to use this palette in any of the rooms in my home, I do love to look at pictures of rooms that rock these colors.  There is something very warm and inviting about this story, and I love the mix when it is both light and bold!  (I'm not picky!)
