D<\/span><\/i><\/span>o you dream in color? Even if you don’t you might after seeing these gorgeous rooms! Though I am the first to admit I have been timid about using bright colors in my own home (maybe because I have been waiting to reserve them to ?furnish my Caribbean retreat…lol)??A big trend in the furniture and home textile industry is lots of bright vivid colors and they are showing a lot of them right now. I guess one thing I have always thought is you can’t just do one room with a punch of color, it has to flow with the rest of the house….so does that mean you are destined to have ?a crayola box of rooms? Don’t know if I am ready for that.<\/span><\/i><\/span><\/span><\/i><\/span>
L<\/span><\/i><\/span>ike it or not there is no denying that bright colors add instant life to any room and the proof is the rooms below. It does add a lot of punch to a room..no doubt. Below is a showcase of many different rooms each infused with a lot of color. ?Let me if its a like or a love!<\/span><\/i><\/span>

Lots of vibrant blues, check out the nautical striped floor! I happen to think this is a lot of fun for a beach\/vacation house.<\/div>\n

Blues, yellows, pinks, and orange? All in a one room? Somehow I think its effective<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
Chartreuse walls? Works with the black chairs in my opinion.<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
I love this color orange…so pretty and warm..bet its beautiful at night! (love tufted ottomans)<\/div>\n

<\/p>\n

<\/a><\/div>\n
Navy walls and different shades of blues somehow make for a very cohesive and cozy feel (I like the navy bookcases instead of black or your usual wood)<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
S<\/span>o let me know what you think about all this color….would you use any of these palettes in your own home or is it just fun to look at them in design magazines and books? I love to hear from you….hope you have a wonderful day!<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n
