Spring Color Mix

I was recently at Target and was inspired by an end cap with spring colors.  This color combination has been around for a long time, but I think it is so fresh.  I wanted to share it with you because I want to bring navy and coral together in harmony in your home!  Bring back NAVY!

Try this color combo in your accessories, for a table setting, graduation party scheme or color palate for a bedroom or bathroom.  Use a great old french basket for your tan color and fill it with coral and blue linens.  Paint your walls a great coral, get a great basic tan couch and toss some navy blue around the room in accents.  Rooms in this color scheme don't have to be loud, but they will be happy, friendly and fresh.

So here just a few fun things that I have seen lately in these great colors!

Gorgeous spring flowers against a bright blue backdrop brings out the punch of the pink.

Super cute vintage luggage in this great blue color.  Love it with tans, peaches and pinks like in the Target  end cap.
This vintage Fire King dish set has these classic colors featured together.  Coral, Red and blue.

Thanks for your support!

Here's an update!  I wanted to write a quick note to thank my viewers, readers and Etsy.com customers.  Today I reached a milestone that I figured would take at least a year, but it has taken just 9 months.  My cute little shop called AffordableAdornment on Etsy.com has reached 200 sales.  I am so grateful to those who shop, favorite and share my items.  I feel so good about the decision to open this shop.  It has given me so much joy and happiness.  Thank you and CHEERS to 1000 more!!

I know it has been quite a while since my last blog post.  Trust me when I say I feel really guilty and it hangs over my head every night!  I have a million things to say, but it's kind of like writing a paper in college...with no due date...and I tend to procrastinate. Hence, the lack of motivation to sit and type.  I suppose I should give myself deadlines - like every other Friday - I'll do my best.  Promise!

My Esty.com has been keeping me really busy with shopping for new inventory, selling, and shipping.   I'll be tweeting and listing lots of new items over the next few weeks as I have been to some wonderful CRAZY estate sales lately.  And I do have a few posts in draft stages and they will be coming soon, as well.  Please don't give up on this blog just yet!  Please follow me on Twitter @AffordableAdorn!
