A Bite of Orange: Color Inspiration

It may just be the time of year but I seem to be seeing so much orange in magazines lately.  I actually really like orange, especially as an accent color.  It looks beautiful on this table in Ina Gartens dining room

This is how I remember orange used in interiors.  This 1960s kitchen says it all!

Love the Veuve Cliquot orange label

These French iron beds with the spicy duvets and soft tangerine sheets are so pretty

T Keller Donavon used the bright stools for impact in this simple kitchen.  How fun are they!

A seaside inspired bedroom with nautical blue and orange.  If you check out yacht club burgees you will see many versions of orange used in the club flags.

Look in your spice drawer or use vintage fabric for inspiration

This wonderful bedroom by Michael S. Smith is so special.  That wallpaper is the key to this room.

Inspiration from the flower fields of Carlsbad

Kathryn M. Ireland knows how to do bold with fabric.  I absolutely love this chair

The soft blue walls and the amazing quilt are a perfect compliment

A simple cup of orange flowers can do the trick

The subtle orange of Mrs Meyers cleaning product labels

Of course the perfect color of orange can always be found in nature.  I think if you look around you will see some great ideas for using this fun color.

I'm off to squeeze some OJ
