Chic Little House: Craving Yellow

Craving Yellow

Thursday, March 17, 2011

It's no secret I love pops of yellow in my living room, lately I've been craving new yellow additions to our living room. With Spring finally appearing Northern California, I want to inject some fun new yellow fabric in our living room. I'm thinking of making some new lumbar pillow covers & and pillows for our sofa.

I think my new love of pom poms is growing by the minute, I would love to add pom poms to our basic white IKEA curtains in the living room. Isn't this pretty!! I think this would add so much whimsy into our living room!! I'm not sure if the husband would agree :)

I think new pops of yellow will be entering our living room very soon. What colors are you currently craving for your home?

I love yellow too, but unfortunately, I can't find a place in my house to fit it in without changing my whole look! BUMMED about that!

Oddly enough, I am craving orange! Which is crazy cause my 2 favorite colors are blue and green. But I'm wanting orange everywhere now. Haha.

Hi Modern Day Crafts: If you end up with pom poms on your curtains you MUST send me a pic! :)

to answer your question, we got our drum shade from CB2 its called the Eden Pendant. We used a brushed nickel down-rod.

You can read more about it here:

I love the idea to add the yellow pom poms to your Ikea panels, that you look so pretty for spring but also be a nice pick-me-up when the weather isn't so nice in the winter months.

Hope you're feeling well.

Its funny you should mention yellow,I mentioned on my lil blog that I am going to paint my living room yellow earlier this week,so when I seen your post, I got sample from valspar for free they are giving away samples at valspar between 10-11 every day for 90 days so I got 3 samples of yellow, you are only allow 1 sample per address, but I used my mother in laws and my fathers, so I could try all 3 samples I liked for free,befor I bought, the kit also comes with free rollers and trays and its really nice, just thought I share:)

DON'T do the Pompoms in the living room...please.

The colors I'm craving that are working my LAST nerve are plum...and red.

That's all. :)
