SUMMER TIME MEANS YELLOW HOME ACCENTS

White entry hall with a bright yellow door

Here is a white entry hall with stark white walls and furnishings…but this entry does have a splash of invigorating color…an electric yellow door.

I had a yellow front door for years before I painted it dark brown. I loved my yellow door. When I came home after a long days work bleary eyed and tired, my yellow door always made me smile. The vibrant yellow was always warm and welcoming…it signified home. Hmmm..I wonder why I painted my front door brown…I may have to rethink that decision!

Last year yellow was the “in” color on fashion runways. This year and every year, however, it seems that yellow in some way, shape, form or shade is always “in” fashion in home decor.

Above, in a public space at the Viceroy Santa Monica Hotel, yellow livens up a classic library making the room bright and cheery (much like white). The shock of yellow in the Hollywood Regency decor contrasts and blends with the rich dark wood of the built in book case.

Below, a warm yellow illuminates an outdoor dining area at Alys Beach in Florida.

Amber, corn, canary, gold, lemon and mustard – just to name a few shades of yellow – now here are furniture pieces and home accents in different shades of yellow.

    Here comes summer…let’s get the yellows in.

    Yellows brighten and puts cheerfulness in any space.

    Let’s bring some sunshine in…let’s use more yellows in our homes.

    Those are some nice yellow items you have there.

Martha's Vineyard house tour part 1. Here is a tou Martha's Vineyard house tour part 1. Here is a tour of the rental house we had in Edgartown on MV this summer. A new build about 5 minutes from the center of town. 3500 square feet, 4 bedrooms, 4 baths and a pool. House bad that beach house or coastal style decor. We were the first to rent it. What do you think? Would you rent thjs? Do you want to see the bedrooms?
It was our 2nd summer on the Vineyard. Next year, we are renting for the month. Same house. 💃🏾 I would love a bit bigger so more people could come but finding good rentals is hard on the Vineyard. Feel very lucky to have spent a magical few weeks in this spot.

Comment YES if you want to see a tour of this Mart Comment YES if you want to see a tour of this Martha's Vineyard house. I rented this house for our two week stay in Martha's Vineyard. A few minutes walk to the center of Edgartown. The house was heaven. We were the first renters to stay in this newly built house.
