Design Dilemma: How to Inject Color into your Interiors

Hi there!  Happy Fall!  This time of year, when the days start becoming shorter, I tend to start thinking about how to inject a little brightness into my home (and into my client's homes).  And of course, I lean toward happy colors and artful ways to include them.  

Here are three of my favorite ways to inject color into your interior design:

1.  Lamps

colorful lamps

(Lamps sourced from Lulu and Georgia)

Pink, of course, is my go-to color -- but there are so many colorful and happy lamps out there.  In addition to Lulu & Georgia, I love sourcing lamps from Furbish Studio, All Modern and Jana Bek Designs.

2.  Throws

Throws

(Throws sourced from One Kings Lane)

A colorful throw placed on a sofa or tossed at the bottom of a bed, can add a happy dose of color to your space. Who doesn't love snuggling under one of these while watching TV?  

3.  Little splashes of Art

Art brings joy.  I cannot express that enough when talking to my clients about interior design.  If you follow me on instagram, you'll see I frequently spotlight artists that I love, and whose works inspire me.  Lisa Daria Kennedy is an artist who paints a painting a day....I purchased one for $100. It's sized 6"x6" and I move it around my house -- sometimes it's leaning on my mantle, sometimes next to my bed or in my entry or on my desk. (Read more about her here -- she is a young woman and a cancer survivor and her story is very inspiring).

4.  Fresh Flowers

I always have fresh flowers or plants in my home -- they inject a sunny spirit into your home decor!  

I'm currently obsessed with Farmgirl Flowers -- their bouquets are wrapped in reused burlap coffee bags and flowers are sourced in U.S.  -- affordably priced and totally unique!  Check them out here.

Interior Design: Before & After Bathroom Remodel

My clients have two young daughters and needed this bathroom to more efficient with storage and space. They wanted a timeless design in their 100 year old home that would transition with the girls as they grow from playing in the bathtub as toddlers, to maximizing space needed for makeup, hairdryers, etc as they become teenagers.

Interior Design: A Pretty Place for Reading

In this project, in Orinda, Ca., I was tasked with coming up with a design solution for a landing space at the top of a stairwell. It was a space that was too small for a loveseat and chairs, and too big and open to use as a home office.
