Fabric: feedback?

Ok, I am love, love, LOVING this color palette!! I got this wallet and already took it to color-match some paint chips, especially the peachy-orange color and the turquoise.

My home is aleady saturated with green, plus khaki and paprika. I'm thinking of neutralizing some of the green (not the kitchen, though--it stays); changing the paprika to a softer, peachier terra cotta; doing some cocoa or chocolate accents; and adding a good dose of my favorite color: TURQUOISE!! More of an aqua, actually. Here's some more Amy Butler fabrics. I'm picturing throw pillows and new cafe curtains for the dining area. Thoughts?? I'll number them. Feel free to comment.

I LOVE that color palette. I'm been VERY into peach lately- so all those fabrics and colors together look awesome.

I love the chocolate thrown in there- I think that's a great idea.; May 23, 2008 at 5:06 PM

FanTABulous quote

“Our deepest fear is not that we are inadequate. Our deepest fear is that we are powerful beyond measure. It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us. We ask ourselves, Who am I to be brilliant, gorgeous, talented, fabulous? Actually, who are you not to be? You are a child of God. Your playing small does not serve the world. There is nothing enlightened about shrinking so that other people won't feel insecure around you. We are all meant to shine, as children do. We were born to make manifest the glory of God that is within us. It's not just in some of us; it's in everyone. And as we let our own light shine, we unconsciously give other people permission to do the same. As we are liberated from our own fear, our presence automatically liberates others.” -from A Return to Love, by Marianne Williamson.
