I spent a day at the beach with my grandkids, and I'm telling you, it was better than winning the lottery! Snapping a hundred photos reminded me how special every moment can be. Even now, my heart picks up a beat from the memories.
Beyond the clicks of your camera, art, too, can capture memories and mood.
Capturing your memories with art turns your house into a home ...
yet, when you try to add that new favorite piece ...
how do you merge colors and mood together?
Here's a simple trick... 1. Balance Color with Neutrals
If your art is bold, accessorize with neutrals.
Craving more energy in your sunroom, you bought a colorful piece of art. Yet how do you keep the focus on these flashy birds without adding too much color? Neutral accessories will let the art pop, becoming the focal point.
Or you've purchased a new painting because the wintry scene triggers a youthful memory. You can't quite remember if it snowed for 6 days or you were 6 when it snowed, but you recall the magic. Being the first one to dance in the flakes.
