Right now, I am finding the sludgy plums and purples a soothing, cozy palette. Combined with clean, soft greens (think teal and celadon) and popped with the trendy greiges, they can provide the warmth needed on cold, snowy days.
I tend to use plum and purple as an accent color rather than filling the whole room.
I love purple. I have cushions in purple. I´m going to upholster an antigue chair in purple (once I find the fabric). And my weddingdress was purple;) Purple silk with embroidery in the A-lined hem of glassbeads.
ReplyDeleteFeel very attracted to purple at the moment!
ReplyDeleteNina- I'd love to see your wedding dress- it sounds wonderful!
ReplyDeleteDear Ann, I love figs and your photograph is stunning. The combinaton of that particular purple and that particular green is absolutely fascinating.
ReplyDeleteHere is a link to a blogpost where I´ve added a pic. Maybe I will post some more... but at least you can see the colour:
