Color Inspiration


I have a favorite color palette. It has been my favorite for so many years and I just keep sticking with it for my family room and dining room areas. It makes me think about family, good times and why I love it when the seasons change! It just so happens that my favorite colors are the colors of Autumn! I guess that's not a big surprise since that's the theme I chose for my blog design, too!



In fact, I daresay that I think Fall has almost replaced Christmas as being my favorite holiday to decorate for! (I said - almost!) I am planning on getting out all my decorations next week! When are you putting out your Fall decorations? I put mine out early, but I also decorate for Christmas starting the day after Thanksgiving!

I found a really neat toy when I was looking at colors for this post. It's called a Color Palette Generator! You upload your photo and it finds all the colors for you and creates a palette! You can give it a try here.

More colors of Autumn that inspire...


What is your favorite color palette?

    I love the blue & greens for my pallet. They are very calming but I once had my living room fall colors too.

  2. Hi Pam,
    I love the rich fall colors. I love a long Indian summer, and the beautiful trees that time of year.

  5. Hi Pam, I love this post. Fall is my favorite time of the year....we don't have much Fall in Florida but we do in our home. I decorate almost every room and especially the kitchen and family room.

    Fall colors absolutely speak to my heart....I just adore them.

    Wonderful post!

  7. I just pulled out some old Country Living, BHG, and a few other home decor magazines that I've kept for years just because of the inspiring photos in them. I love gourds. I also love to decorate with black and white with punches of reds and orange. For instance, a black wooden candle holder w/ white mini pumpkins instead of a candle, a bouquet of garden mums or colorful gourds to complete an arrangement. I too am a huge Fall lover! The smell of cinnamon is a fall favorite too.
