Orange Integration

My absolute favorite color is orange and I don't discriminate when it comes to the shade or exact color name (pumpkin, tangerine, persimmon and so on).   The color evokes an emotional response of positivity and is associated with creativity, stimulation and enthusiasm.  I love adding small hints of it around my house; in fact I have a large wall painted orange or what my interior decorator calls cinnamon.  Below are some great pieces that could easily be integrated into your home to add a little positive energy! 

Champagne, Please!

With New Years quickly approaching you need a champagne toast at the ready!  I only have a couple champagne glasses so I have opted to serve mini bottles of champagne and with  a touch of washi tape they look amazing.  I have a passion for sparkle but any tape would do!

Each strand of tape covered approximately 5 bottles.  The straws were purchased at Target but I'm not sure they are necessary (but they do look cute!).

Perler Bead Ornament- Little Kid Friendly

My three year old wanted to make ornaments for his family and friends; we turned to Perler beads.  I found a ton of ideas online but they were pretty intricate for a little kid and I barely had the patience to lay out the patterns.  We came up with a solution!  Follow the directions below for a simple ornament that a kid can design all on their own.

Hudson Bay Blanket

Obsession has set in!!!  I just came across the Hudson Bay point blanket and I want to use the print in every corner of my house.  The simplicity and warmth of the pattern would work well in most homes. The stripes on the blanket are green, red, yellow and indigo. 

 

Unfortunately, the price point is a bit north of my typically blanket budget but it is still fun to look at!

 

Here is the classic blanket and below that are some amazing uses of the print or the actual blanket itself!
