Flashes of color







I found these images via Fancy Pants blog who found them on the Traditional Home magazine website. I had to post them because they mixed so many of my favorite things about interior design! I love neutral colors or white with bright flashes of yellow, blue, green, teal and red! I also am attracted to antique design mixed with modern materials! And I'm in the process of organizing my apartment right now, so this is inspiration :)

Andrew and I will be heading down to Kansas City this weekend for a full fledged Cumings reunion/birthday party for the matriarch of the Cumings clan! It'll be filled to the brim with activity! I'm sure it'll be memorable *winks*

Congrats on the move and the new apartment. It is fun to set things up in a new place and make it yours. I am sure it will look stunning once you are done.

I subscribe to Traditional Home and don't remember seeing this spread. Do you think it would help if I actually opened the magazine?!! More hours in the day, please! These rooms are beautiful.
