Where will you find color inspiration this weekend?


“For me, colour is the oxygen of life,” Italian fashion director Rosita Missoni.


I couldn't agree more with Rosita Missoni. Since the best color inspiration is found in nature, I thought I'd sign off this weekend with a shot of a flower shop that makes me happy.

For a long time, I've admired bloggers who make it a point before the weekend to wish their readers well. It somehow seems to make the blogger more like a real person and less like someone just putting out text and images. Today, I am going to start doing the same and plan to do so each Friday with an inspirational quote and photo.

I hope you find color inspiration and more during your weekend.

Warmly,

Photobucket

I've never thought about the sign-off that way, but it is completely true! It's really like you do with friends at work, right? And I love the idea of having a simple post/photo of inspiration.

Just like when I saw this, I was reminded that I want to plant 'fall' flowers in our pots on our porch.

And when I see a 'Friday cocktail' post, well...

LOVE inspiration for the weekend:).

I'm in your BYW class and really enjoyed my first visit to your blog; I especially liked the reading nook post for the children; what a tremendous idea. And congrats on your new weekly post...the idea is quite inspiring.
Cheers~

Hi Minnie, I'm a colour lover, so that quote rings true for me. How bland it would be if the world was all neutral.

The flowers are gorgeous, and I really like the colour of the wall behind them. I've used a similar colour, only quite a bit deeper on the bottom half of a wall in an older house I used to live in. (It had a wallpaper dado/border mid-way, and a warm buttery sort of colour on top).

Happy weekend!
