layering neutrals are a perfect way to create a charming space for anyone struggling w/ color...but one of the keys is to be sure to mix light and dark elements to build that wonderful definition.

a simple grosgrain ribbon....

can quickly turn into a beautiful source of inspiration....

when lighting makes the room....

isn't it amazing what lighting can do to a space.....it can transform it, take it to the next level, or make a room just right...so have you looked at your lighting lately??

pink. i know people either love or hate it...obviously, i love it. the soft palette used in the interiors above seem to be just the perfect "hint' of color!

tay's room....

toni over at design dazzle was so sweet and asked to feature taylor's nursery on her blog. if you want to see me preggers, tay bald, how i brought out the artist in my hubbie, and some of our DIY secrets- check out the post!

*is that terrible that two years later, taylor is still sleeping in her crib!! bless her heart! hopefully our house will sell soon so she can go to a big girl room...

natural beauty...
