Sunny Sunday Inspiration - 3

THIS POST IS FROM ROOM REMIX - THE BLOG .

Coastal Living Photographer Grey Crawford

I've probably mentioned more than a few times that I'm loving turquoise right now, so today I thought I would share some turquoise inspiration combined with yellow for my Sunny Sunday post.

I love the design of the bedroom in the first photo by designer Jill Johnson, and how she paired the turquoise and yellow with gray!

And Anthropologie uses the same color combo in this lamp shade...


Why not add a little red or orange to the scheme to liven it up like they did in this bedding?

Or this cute sunporch designed by Jane Coslick?

And this bedroom transformation from Southern Living. (Photos Robbie Caponetto)

AFTER



I know I already used this photo in my Decorating with Maps post, but it's part of this bedroom transformation so I had to use it again, didn't I? It's my favorite image from the room. :-)

Hope you're having a sunny Sunday!

We all know that mirrors have their function, but they can also provide a great design element in a room.

A Lovely Porch


Check out this inspiring and amazing porch by Nicole Balch of Making it Lovely, who painted and redecorated this porch with her husband nine months pregnant! Proves you really can do anything. I thought I was working hard painting my wicker furniture for my front porch, but wow. Pictures are from Apartmenttherapy.com and Making It Lovely. I love the idea of painting the porch floor with a pattern and bringing the outside in with a "rug". I think she did a great job. As soon as my front porch furniture is finished and arranged I'll upload my pictures too!
