Orange Crush






.
Are you an orange person? I love how this fabulous colour has been used in these rooms, especially where it is paired with turquoise and white - I think this is one of my favourite colour combinations at the moment.

    Orange is such a misunderstood color. I love little punches of it here and there.
    Great pics!

    I would NEVER have chosen orange, in a milliom years BUT, these look lovely..the first one is beautiful with the pale blue and they are all quite gentle shades of orange, apart from maybe the last one. Thanks, leigh, for showing me that orange can look good. XXXX

    Orange looks great with white - I'd certainly give it a try after seeing these pics. Are they daisies draped over the statue in the last shot? Pretty nifty arrangement! xCaroline

    I love the way you can completely cheer up a space with smart orange touches, like in that gallery. only an orange tablecloth and cushions can do it all! xo

    I adore orange! It's one of my favorite accent colors, and I think it is so, so underused. Thanks for all these lovely images. xo Gigi

    I'm most definitely an orange person! In fact, a blogger pal and I have a monthly series called Orange Crush. I'll have to borrow a couple of these pics for it! :)
