Jen - just awesome collage of photos! I totally agree with you about white. I love splashes of bright and pastel colours against white. I've also noticed that for some reason, the combination of - white, baby blue - robin's blue goes with practically every colour.

p.s. I always look forward to your Color of the Day posts.

Hey gorgeous Jen, loving your new profile picture, did you color your hair different? So pretty!

These oranges are all so energizing, helped pull me out of my work induced slump just now, wow, the little pair of orange chairs is adorable, I so wish I had somewhere to put that little set...Perfect for an afternoon coffee and a tete-a-tete! :)

Thank you for visiting my blog :)
I LOVE orange! Well, I love bright colors, but I have been on a orange kick the past year! Beautiful post!

orange is a color that is supposed to make one hungry... the dining or kitchen would be appropriate; however, those stair cases are amazing!!!!!

love those stairs. thanks for your comment on my blog- i never know if anyone is reading?? :)

i'm obsessed with orange too. i'm going to redo my living room this summer and i'm trying to find inspiration...there are so many things i like but i don't know what's "me," do you know what i mean? i never commit to anything because i'm afraid i wont like it...but there's nothing wrong with changing it up, right?
i've lived in my current address for 6 years and all that's on my living room wall is a giant clock, so sad.
i'm totally adding your blog to my reader!
