So I missed a week or two on the color posts, sorry about that!  I was pretty excited to share the Lodge Design post, and kind of forgot about our new Friday color tradition!  Oops!  Well, here we are again, back on track, and today we are going to be talking about yellow!  Yellow has many shades, many connotations, and many names.  Yellow is generally associated with happiness, joy and summertime, and the sun itself (which I am really missing right now), is yellow!  The names of the shades are just as beautiful as the shades themselves: goldenrod, lemon, mustard, wheat. There are so many ways to bring yellows and golds into your home design, and like our post on green, we are going to focus on the best of the ways to do it!

A small pop of bold yellow can be a welcome surprise in an otherwise neutral room

If you want to go all out and make a huge statement, yellow paint or wallpaper can be a great way to accomplish that!

In a more rustic space, use pine to bring in the yellow tones.

Softer yellows help create light and airy summertime spaces!
