What Color Makes You HAPPY??




I was browsing around the store when my eye was stolen by the COLOR of this HUGH shiney solid glass green apple. Some may question, "why would you want a HUGH faux apple sitting as part of your accessories". For me, it was a few different reasons, one Im normally a color phobic person but this is one color that I have always loved, secondly it adds whimsey to the room which prevents the room from becoming too serious and last but most importantly it makes me feel HAPPY. I am by no means a designer, but I have heard when you want to inject just a bit of your favorite color, do it in threes. I had the blanket already, so i added it to my chair which is soft and cuddley for the cool months ahead, now I will look for a bowl for the shelf on the other side of the room. Please share with me how you use color and what color makes you HAPPY.

That faux apple made so much difference, Janet! Everything came together since the throw is already green and so are some flowers in the vase. Beautiful!
