Glass Decor

If you want to add some glitz to your favorite room, try some colorful glass.

It's a great way to add some vibrant color. You can easily find nice pieces in high end stores as well as a local antique stores. Stick with one color for a bold impact. I especially like blue glass vases and bottles. Purple also looks nice. Prefer warm tones? Try amber, oranges and reds. Stick to one piece for a statement or collect bottles or vases of similar styles and display them together.

Here are some great pieces that I found online

These colorful hanging vases are so cute. Find them through Amazon.com.

This stunning Royal Doulton teal and blue vase can be found easily at Bed Bath & Beyond.

 

 

 

If you like warm tones, you'll love this decorative swirl vase. Find this at Amazon.com.

Make a statement with this amazing piece from Artful Home.

This Opaque Violet Bowl is also from Artful Home.

 

 

Find this Aqua Blue Sommerso vase at Sears. What a great gift for the holidays!

I love this Royal Doulton 14" platter. Find this at Bed Bath & Beyond.

 

 

Orange

Looking for a happy, energetic color for fall? Try some orange. Opt for a few splashes of bright orange or start off slowly with a muted orange hue.

Happy Decorating!

COLOR BLOCKING

Color blocking is a great way to change a room. It's not only hot in fashion right now, but also home interiors. 

iLiveFashion.com

Simply add items in different solid colors to create this look. 

sweetydesign.com

Color blocking is a really inexpensive way to decorate, you can find sales nearly everywhere with solid colored pillows, throws, candlesticks, and much more. A color wheel may be of help,, but if you don't have one just select the colors that go well together.  Do you currently have red accents in a room but want to add a punch? Try adding in yellow, green and blue for a colorful, modern look. Simply mix and match your favorite treasures and have fun. 

stylehive.com

Color blocking is also a great way to play with texture and pattern. Mix and match different textured items and patterns; for example a silk red pillow next to a chunky blue woven pillow. Want to mix it up even more? Then opt for different shapes and sizes. There is really no way to go wrong with this look, just have fun!

Yellow

 I'm loving bright, cheerful, yellow room decor. Add a buttery yellow color to the walls, pick out a yellow piece of furniture that makes you smile or simply toss in a few yellow accents.
