Easter Color Extravaganza: Mellow Yellow!

I so remember getting baby chicks for Easter.  Awh, fresh eggs... The good ol' days.

Yellow is most certainly one of the hottest colors this Spring.  These pieces are currently on my wish list.

A quick Internet search to some of the popular design retailers reveals homepages that look like this one.

Recently I posted the idea board for a nursery I'm finishing up, so you know how much I'm loving yellow and grey right now.  But, grey isn't the only color that looks great with yellow.  Check out this fresh yellow, white and green combo.

I'm actually a bit surprised that I like this yellow, white and blue scheme. 

I have a color very similar to this one on my kitchen walls, but I really wish it was on my cabinets.  How cute....

With so many variations, yellow is also one of those colors that can go horribly wrong pretty quickly (i.e. school bus yellow).  So be careful.  And, when in doubt, try adding it to your existing scheme or a neutral color palette for a quick update.

What color is left in the Easter Color Extravaganza?  You'll have to wait and see....

"If My Outfit Was a Room..."

Looks as if everyone is starting to introduce their Spring 2012 clothing lines and I'm really feeling all of the vibrant colors.  Additionally, I really like the look of the soft yellow that seems to also be pretty prevalent, especially paired with grey or khaki.

Although, it looks like I may not need to actually buy any.

I know, you're probably thinking, "I thought this was a design blog?".  But it actually got me thinking, if my outfit (and the one's I like) were a room, what would it look like? 

Here's what I imagine....

 I really love the look of this wallpaper.  It's a bit of a throwback, but fresh and modern at the same time.

I really like how the yellow acts as an accent here.

I'm in love with this fabric.  It even comes in a variety of colors.  This is definitely in my future.  I also love the fact that it's designed and made in Mississippi (my home state) by Premier Fabrics.

So, if your outfit was a room, what would it look like?  Thing that make you go, "hmmmm?"
