Color!

I went to a Yolo Colorhouse presentation last night. Its official....I really am in love with one of their new colors...

But then I found out it was made from jewel beetles...
ummm....no, not for me!

  4. Yummy! Next time you're in Pomegranate, take a look at the "ocean" palette in Bella Notte linens. I think it's pretty close: the silk velvets and satins especially take on that saturated, deep color. Love it! -- Jan

  5. That's a lot of beetles.
    I decided not to go with the blue in the front because the corners didn't meet up with the rest of the room in an even way- would've been awkward. But it is beautiful- will try to squeeze it in someplace.

  6. I think I'd be scared to sleep under a beetle ceiling. A little too possibly-nightmare-producing.
