Yellow. Synonymous with optimism, laughter, happiness, good times and creativity. Used sparingly it's the perfect way to bring joy into a minimalist home. Yellow can also speed up your metabolism, now isn't that worth a try?
For that ultimate feel good factor just add this soundtrack:
Bombalurina - 'Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini'
Dawn featuring Tony Orlando - 'Tie a Yellow Ribbon Round the Old Oak Tree'
Donavon - 'Mellow Yellow'
Joni Mitchell - 'Big Yellow Taxi'
Coldplay - 'Yellow'
Black and Yellow - 'Black and Yellow'
The Beatles - 'Yellow Submarine' Elton John - 'Goodbye Yellow Brick Road'
Lovely pops of yellow ... so bright and cheery ... Bee xx
ReplyDeleteI painted our dining table and chairs yellow this year (they needed a fresh coat of colour anyway)
ReplyDeleteI really love it. It's cheery and makes me happy everyday. I also think that yellow goes with many other colours (funny enough that it's so unusual in interiours, I think it's really versatile!). It goes well with blue and white, but it also works with green and red. I love it!
I agree. I love yellow and grey as a colour combination too xo
ReplyDeleteI love yellow and grey too - love the dining area in the last photo!
ReplyDeleteYellow is my absolute favorite color! I had a yellow winter coat for a number of years, and it just made me happy in the cold weather.
ReplyDeleteI had "Yellow" by Coldplay stuck in my head the entire time I was reading your post...
Yellow - a great song isn't it? Btw I can't thank you enough for including me in your list of 16 great small blogs and your kind words xo
