Color Pop: Coral

I have recently been inspired....inspired by all the beautiful shades of coral. Coral is known to evoke happy feelings, and is often described as fresh, glowing, blushing, healthy, rose-colored. Why would I not be dying to add this color to my home?!

Today, I am working on a new project, hopefully it will turn out as delightful as it is in my head. I am hoping to incorporate coral into my scheme....are you curious yet?

For now, I will leave you with these lovely inspirations....












Which color combination do you prefer?

Coral and Navy...




Coral and Aqua...


Coral and Yellow...



Or the dramatic Coral and Gray...


Can you guess which color combination I am using? Which one is your favorite?

Have a great Tuesday.

    Hmmm I noticed the burlap bed has made another appearance...so that is my guess. Coral and burlap.

    Love the coral and navy. Coral is a little too bold for my personal tastes but it is such a pretty color!!

    WOW, I clicked on your blog this morning and am completely inspired myself now! (I LOVE the coral and navy!) Actually, I loved them all. My sunroom is a work in progress (as always) and I have been sticking with various shades of blues, greens and browns but wanted to incorporate another color. Red is too bold and orange is bleh -- but coral! Absolutely!

    Here is a peek into the sunroom -- can't you just picture coral accents in here?

    I love coral! I think it looks great with navy but I also like it with lots of neutrals like you showed in the first bedroom.
