Friday Fun Stuff-Colorful Spaces to Brighten Your Day

I used to do a twice-monthly post called Friday Fun Stuff.  I would post some favorite links or whatever “fun” stuff I had on my mind.  If you seem to enjoy it I am going to give it another shot.  Pinterest is a constant source of inspiration for me.   I use it for client projects, and ideas and personal inspiration.  We have had so much dreary weather here on the Central Coast I thought we could use a little Friday Fun Stuff, Colorful Spaces to brighten your day.

Few people mix color and pattern better than Anna Spiro.  These two images caught my eye this week.  It was no surprise they were the work of the talented Anna

This room by Ben Pentreath is awash with details but somehow they all work beautifully together.

The bold play of ethnic pillows makes a splash in this room by Carlos Sanchez Garcia.  Anyone noticing that pleated shades are back?

Sarah Bartholomew really rocked the blue and green in this lovely eating area.

Does anyone do pretty better than Mark Sikes? An editor once told me Mark Sikes is responsible for keeping tradition fresh. This Marin County project is perfection.

I hope these images brightened up your day wherever you are! Are you a fan of Pinterest? 

If you would like to see more pins like these I would love for you to  follow me on Pinterest.   You might enjoy my living spaces in color board, or my newest board collected living spaces.

    Em’s patio is wonderful, isn’t it? Yep, we all love posts like this, Cindy. Saturday morning in Houston is overcast, misting rain so this was a pick-me-up after a dreary doggie walk (about 100 feet) !! xx’s
