It can be a lot of fun to embrace a rainbow of colours when decorating and the results can be stunning. While the rules thatapply to creating a complementary scheme go out the window, it’s still important to consider which of your chosen hues you apply to certain parts of the scheme. To create a final look that looks stylish and considered it’s best to pick one hue that you will introduce throughout all the elements of the scheme. So, taking this bedroom as an example, we can see how turquoise has been introduced in the artwork, the bedding and on the side table. This gentle consistency brings visual cohesion between all the elements of the room, meaning the look comes together as one, rather than looking like a jumble sale of different colours. Now, could we please discuss how fun that turquoise cage lamp is? I love it!

super fun! before I went all neutral to my space, I was all about multi-colors and patterns. Didn't know why they work but somehow they turned out beautifully. Now I know the trick: one color more so than the others!! Thanks Mr. for the tip!
Nice blog… thanks for sharing with us..
beautiful setting for room . really cute. Celebrity Blog
Very true Will. The turquoise features do bring it all together and make your eye travel around the room from point to point. And yes, the cage lamp is gorgeous!

I agree, the cage lamp just makes me smile – I also like its bright red textile cord!
Nice and bright, just what is needed to cheer me up on a grey winter day! (I love this tone of yellow!) /maria
Morning, I agree, the turquoise featuring in more than one element does bring the design together, I wouldn't be able to rest in a totally chaotic room, whereas this is thought out and fun. Certainly a cheery room. The cage lamp is funky and that headboard is art work in itself – I think sometimes we don't need too many accessories if we have an elaborate headboard in the centre of a room.
The lamp is fantastic! It's a nice & happy room.
The lamp…perfect. Love the bold use of colors!
Fantastic room~

what great advice! i love color but haven't found a way to use it where it gives me the vibe i am going for so now i am focusing on a black and white palette, but i do love it and will remember this when i inevitably try for color again! that pendant light is devine!
I love this room! It's totally my style. Sometimes I think about changing to more neutral hues but I always come back to the color.

Lovely collection, I would like to buy these pillow covers, Thanks so much for these unique collection.
Just came across your site today. I too am in love with bright, happy colors. My home used to have a coastal look with soft browns and blues, but I’m slowly converting it to funky and colorful. Looking forward to keeping up with your blog from here forward, and I’ve already been looking around, inspired by many of your posts.
Love the bed head! and the combination of bright colours mixed with textures!
