Turquoise and Green

Speaking of room personalities...what kind of personality would you say this room reflects? (Please excuse the over-taking of the picture, but I wanted you to be able to see it well...that's why it's off the page!) 

I would say it sports the personality of someone that is fun-loving, cheerful, energetic, organized....what else?  Can you see from this wonderful room that decorating with your personality doesn't have to be complicated or consist of "lots" of stuff. I just feel in love with the colors in this room and the simplicity of it all.  I, of course, would dress the windows...you know, to "soften"...but it still reflects a cozy space even without draperies or valances.


 I most certainly found this room to be "Simply Irresistible" and couldn't wait to share it with you today.  It reflects some great basic facts of design that you could learn from...using any color scheme you like! I love how the sofa is one shade of green and then the two chairs are done in a darker green (and looks like maybe even welted in the lighter shade of green). Added to this are a couple of green and white pillows (in chairs) and then pillows on the sofa with the greens, but also adding in the accent color....refreshing turquoise!  You know I LOVE the accents used in this room...more pops of the accent color all around and then those LAMPS....!!! Are they "eye candy" or what? 


Easy symmetry is used on the mantle with a landscape picture and two topiaries (love that "one" is placed up on a small stack of books - and one is even turquoise!) on each side.  Simple, right?


I hope this photo inspired you today as much as it did me.  Hopefully it showed you how easy it can be for your room to take on "your" very own personality.  You just have to first determine what your style is.  If you missed the "room personality test" you can always go back and try it here.


Enjoy your day and be sure to make it...
"Simply Irresistible"!
