Hottest Colors of the Season: 3 Shades of Green

Posted on December 5, 2012 by Suzy Q

Kick it up a notch this season with the powerful color of green! Think exciting shades like olive, emerald, and forest green. To get on the right track incorporate this bold hue throughout your home with fabrics, paint, and even accessories. When looking for complementary colors, try natural hues like yellow, brown, taupe, burnt orange, and beige.

The lush looking home below has it all – forest green in the dining room, olive curtains in the sitting room, and green bedding in the bedroom. For an eccentric look the designers even added a wild zebra rug for maximum impact. Wow!

DIY Friday: Rustic Farmhouse Dining Table

Posted on November 2, 2012 by Suzy Q

Roll up your sleeves this weekend and get your hands on this gorgeous rustic dining table! This sturdy table makes a fantastic addition to a family oriented home and if made right is bound to last you years to come. I love it when it’s finished in a thick lacquer and the wood looks rough and worn out. You have maybe come across tables like this at Restoration Hardware, Urban Barn, Pier One, and Pottery Barn. I’ve always had my eye out for a beauty like this and before you know it I find the whole plan on Ana-White.com!

All the instructions for the dining table below can be found here at Ana-White. The one featured was made by brave blogger Ellie from TommyandEllie.com.
