Add Spring Fresh Colors To Your
Vacation Property

"For a room with a view"

We decided to bring a spring fresh color scheme to this charming breakfast nook in our Florida property.

This being an informal, casual dining area we chose a simple padded window pelmet in a check fabric which would enhance rather than obscure the gorgeous view of the pool and the lawned area beyond.

The bright green of the grass and the cool blue of the pool worked so well together, and daffodil yellow seemed a natural choice for a fresh, clean look.

It is very important to get the right shades of yellow, green and blue, so let nature be your guide and take inspiration from this daffodil picture.

Note the framed pictures on the wall, and how just a splash of red breaks up the color scheme just enough to keep it from looking too clinical.

My mum's favorite flower was the snowdrop and it was uncanny how many times she saw her first snowdrop of the season on her own birthday - February 1st. Perhaps I have a sentimental reason for liking it but you must admit that the beautiful shade of green of the snowdrop leaves is lovely against the white of the flower itself making this another winning color combination.
