Decorating With Flowers: Color Options<\/h2>\n

Usually when I’m selecting flowers, \u00a0I\u00a0gravitate towards jewel tone colors. \u00a0Love those hot pinks, rich purples and\u00a0deep\u00a0burgundy colors. \u00a0But over the years, it has become apparent that certain colors work much better in a space than others. \u00a0Whites and greens work almost anywhere, bright colors work best in white or neutral spaces, and use of complementary colors\u00a0in a room can greatly enhance the subtle nuances of the room.<\/p>\n

Let’s look at a few examples.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

This beautiful asymmetrical arrangement of white pear branches and tulips is a lovely addition to this\u00a0light gray room. \u00a0The yellow-white tulips compliment the walls, and therefore really stand out. The white florets on the pear branches add a lacy texture to the arrangement…plus white and green work just about anywhere.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Look at this lovely table filled with vases of coral colored roses. The rosettes certainly pick up the coral nuances of the room. \u00a0Nicely done.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Here we have a white room with\u00a0a blue embellished chandelier. \u00a0You have lots of options here because just about any bright color will work in a white space. \u00a0But I like how the designer used yellow-creme orchids as contrast the blue in the room. \u00a0Contrasting colors help colors pop, thus you really notice both the florets as well as the light fixture.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Ahh…rich red and deep pink. \u00a0These colors are next to each other on the colorwheel, so they go together nicely. \u00a0Good use of a black vase to pick up the colors of the table as well.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

White on white. \u00a0Clean and simple. \u00a0Can’t go wrong.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

White room. \u00a0Hot pink flowers. \u00a0Looks delightful.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Here is another white space with a bright mix of flowers. \u00a0You can see how just adding a few bright blooms of color brings life and vibrancy to the space.<\/p>\n

\"\"<\/p>\n

Blue. A powerful color… but there are not a lot of blue flowers out there. \u00a0 So when you find them, enjoy them!<\/p>\n
