Tuesday Huesday: Fall Into An Autumn Themed Room

Yay! I don’t know about you, but I am so glad that summer is ending, and fall is fast approaching. The summer weather here in Atlanta for the past few months has been unbearable. The fall months will definitely offer a much needed cool down for us. With my anticipation for the fall season, I began to think about fall themed interiors. There are such wonderful color palettes to create from fall themed colors, and use in a room. A palette that caught my attention was from this living room I found on a home interior decorating blog called, Well Order. I really love the mixture of light and dark colors. This room definitely screams fall. It is vibrant, yet soothing. I hope this palette inspires you to add some touches of fall to the room of your choice.


We created this color palette using FolkArt Acrylic colors, #405 Parchment, # 2557 Moon Yellow, #462 Burnt Umber, and #503 Yellow Citron

Tuesday Huesday: 2011 Fall Fashion Colors


Autumn is fast approaching , and with a new season comes new fashion trends and colors. This year there are several new fall color trends. This fall fashion palette from the Pantone Fall Color Report, is a nice mixture of warm colors with cool metals. The mixture creates an even balance between the tones, and there is also a hint of romance that can be seen in this palette.

Bamboo, a surprising fall hue, brings a warm, exotic flavor to the season. Bamboo is a standout yellow with a subtle green undertone.

Emberglow, a traditional autumnal tone, emanates the warmth of a glowing fire – the perfect panacea to the crisp air of fall. Add a spark with shoes or a handbag in Emberglow, or perhaps a patterned scarf combining purpled Phlox or Deep Teal.

Honeysuckle, adds a bold punctuation point. This playful, reddish pink works with any other color in the palette. Flirtatious and festive, Honeysuckle produces a healthy glow – great for cosmetics and holiday soirees.

Phlox, a magical, deep purple with a hint of mystery, is an outstanding statement when worn on its own.

Cedar, is a versatile, mid-tone neutral green.

Deep Teal, a strong, blue-toned green, suggests ocean depths and the color of the sky as daylight descends into darkness.

Coffee Liqueur, brings a sense of elegance to fall, and is a savory alternative to basic black.

Nougat, is a deliciously warm camel tan.

Orchid Hush, a unique tone of gray with complex orchid undertones, blends well with any other color in the palette.

Quarry, a reliable medium gray that is a dependable staple.
