Quote of the Week

"The easiest approach to any strong color is to use a lot of it, thus unifying a room. However, beware of too many strong colors unless you happen to like living on a battlefield."

- Van Day Truex

  2. Ooh, the turquoise-esque blue!
    I love bold colors-- but could not live with them I'm afraid. I love a bright fiery red, but in large quantities, it gives me a headache to look at.

  10. i love that quote! i have blue teal walls in my bedroom... a VERY strong colour but chose to go with golds, whites and creams in furnishings and furniture... and it looks good! (well, as good as it can get!) my husband was envisioning sleeping in a Thomas Train interior, but with these French-esque mix... it looks nothing like Thomas' set! :)
