You may or may not recall that I'm attempting a lounge re-do. On a very small scale of course. It took many more coats of paint than I anticipated, even with the priming but, we now have ever so slightly off white walls. The color is called 'Twinkle Twinkle'... how could I resist when it is the song I have sung to Pony Girl nearly every night for the past two years? An eco-friendly paint was used of course.
And now with the walls a blank and neutral canvas, I can dream of what colors I would like to add to the room. Lately I have been inspired by orange and blue, those two complimentary colors have been making me feel happy and lively. So after flipping through flickr, I have found some very happy inspiration that I thought I would share with you!

This is a gorgeous mosaic, I just love the colours.
Those are very happy colors... and such a pretty collection of photos. Just stopping by to say hello; I have been looking at fellow Oregon blogs today:)
Mmmmm.... so purty.....
I always enjoy your amazing sense of color.
Well if you can replicate even a smidge of the joy that your mosaic evokes in your 're-do' then I'll be impressed. So gorgeous. I forget about orange...
very pretty :) Living in close proximity to bronco nation we are surrounded by blue and orange (I like your picks much better).
As a yote I accidentally pick purple and gold a lot but am very retro and love lime green and orange :)
It is so nice to get the painting done and get on with the fun stuff. I love orange all of a sudden, and would be happy, happy to sew all day with that orange machine. My daughter just found a delicious orange german typewriter at a shop on 13th and Hawthorne, wouldn't something like that look great in your new room?
ooooh, i'm loving the orange and blue combo... can't wait to see the new look... :)

Yep, I wholeheartedly support your every decorational move - don't stop now!
Great color combination they go so beautifully together and you collage of images is really lovely.
Such gorgeous colours together - they make me very happy too! Can't wait to see more photos of your made-over lounge :-)
Sending you lots of happy Springtime sunshine,

Gorgeous combinations. Good luck dreaming up your redo. Can't wait to see the result!
Such cheerful colours. I'm feeling a bit in the mood for orange too, as I'm clearing out all my red, bit by bit, as the weather gets warmer. I don't seem to need the red in spring and summer, and orange is just as cheerful! I can't wait to see what you do with the room.
can't wait to see pics of the makeover.
so how is mr. nova doing?
