Decorating with Aqua

Summer is the perfect time to add delightful aqua to your home.

The possibilities in color and finish are almost limitless. Aqua can be casual or formal depending on the other finishes and colors in your rooms. For a beachy vibe, add items you’ve collected at the seashore such as driftwood, shells and natural grasses. For a more formal look, use aqua as you would any other accent color, with the classic, modern, or eclectic accessories you like best. The color and design possibilities are varied for beautiful aqua accents: - Pair aqua with soft brown and tan, then add rustic woods and sea glass. - Combine aqua with soft sand-colored fabric and paint, and add whitewashed finishes and seashells. - Put aqua together with crisp black and white, or with softer chocolate brown and white, or with tailored dark charcoal and white. - Team aqua with sage green for a fern garden feel. - Mingle aqua with bright tomato red for a lively and energized atmosphere. This summer it's all about aqua. Add some of this delightful color to your home this season for long-lasting beauty and enjoyment.
