Today's colours are orange and green; a beautiful combination. The warmth of orange combined with the freshness of green; spring feels near....... :))
Deep warm orange combines well with green. A simple tray and a table-cloth are the perfect basic items to create a colour still life. I have them in different colours and shapes and they have become my favourite decorating tools :)
Other ideal items for a quick and cheap new still life are candles. Now a day you can buy the most beautiful standing candles in all the colours of the rainbow. Here I combined them with a replica of a pre-Colombian sculpture and orange coloured pillows.
For the green I added a palm plant and an orchid. It is wonderful to see how the green underlines the yellow and orange tones and adds freshness to the arrangement :)
This colour palette is very warm and sunny. It makes me feel like spring and even summer are near. Amazing how colours are influencing our moods. What also influences my mood and the atmospheres in my house are precious stones.
I love to have them around, especially orange calcite. I get relaxed due to its warm energy. Besides that the decorator in me is drawn to it because of the beautiful colour hihi :))
So far today's entry about the colour palette orange/green. I hope you enjoyed it and if you have a colour request for this item just let me know :))

Sas I have been visiting your blog for a couple of weeks now. You are amazing on many levels -- your appreciation of/and eye for detail and colour, your absolutey exquisite taste, and your ability to articulate in such a way that I find the synthesis intoxicating.
I would love to visit with you in your home and garden, to share a cup of tea and bask in the sun's rays. Oh, and also to liberate you of the little sculpture featured in your post today. I'm very taken with him!
Be well!

Thank you Debra for your warm and lovely comment on my blog :))
I am happy that you respond to the little pre-Colombian sculpture because I am very fond of my tiny collection of these replicas. I will make a post about them soon so you can see the others too ;)
You are more then welcome in my home although it is much smaller then you'd expect from the pictures hihi :))
I wish you well too Debra,
Sas

Now that I can have the Sun and nature in my room, I am convinced I need to redo my decor. Got to do that in the coming weeks. Hope it looks as beautiful as yours :) ...tough job for me!
