Design Tip of the Week (8.22.10): Let the Sun Shine

I'm currently experimenting with yellow and found that this is not the easiest color to work into a room. My design dilemma was using yellow tastefully and stylishly without over doing it or making the room too feminine. And most importantly, using yellow in a way that I could live with day in and day out. I sought out some inspiration on the many ways you can use yellow in a room. From bold to subtle, from a primary to an accent color...yellow truly does brighten up a room. How bold can you be with this sunny hue?

Great rooms! Yellow can be a challenge... I'm loving it with grey/taupe like the image you found from Patricia's blog.

The first picture is what I really love among all those pictures. I love the design of the bed room. It is very neat and very relaxing. The color is just perfect. I love it so much.
