EXPLORING WALL COLOR: WARM TONES Orange, Red, Pink

I've never been a fan of Orange.
But doing a little research for this blog, my eyes were opened.  There is a lot about Orange to love.  I found that there were a lot more variations on Orange than I had thought of when starting this post - colors like Coral, Terra Cotta, Peach and Persimmon.  They sound so much more interesting than just 'Orange', don't they?.

WEDDING DESIGN: Planning a Wedding!

I'm planning a wedding in Dallas. It is my first experience planning over the phone and via email - a little hard to convey ideas sometimes! So, I sent off little sketches of my vision for the wedding (reception) and crossed my fingers, waiting to hear back from them, hoping I got it right.

I just heard back from the bride. She emailed me to say that she LOVED every little thing and that I had Source URL: https://costumesgirl.blogspot.com/search/label/pink

HOME DECOR: CHILDS PLAY

I love creating rooms for young people. Children have boundless imaginations and interviewing them for a room redesign is a lesson in possibilities. Whether tweens, teens or preschoolers, they have no fear of color and they know exactly what they love. Nine year old Hailey wanted purple, hot pink, butterflies and fairies. Oh, and her other favorite - turquoise. Her mother was a little worried Source URL: https://costumesgirl.blogspot.com/search/label/pink
