I really go for a deep saffron or marigold yellow......it makes my soul shiny. and i need that!!!


This first room just drives home the notion that YELLOW can be KING
in the right setting.
Right?



Now my living room is painted the honeysuckle rose color.
Art, antiques seem to feel very much at home with it. 

If only I really knew more history about the history of colors/
Where shall I go?

    Love these colors, Renee. There is an app for the House Beautiful 500 Colors. I love it!
    I am amazed at how much yellow is in the room and it doesn't look too yellow. Beautiful! I love the honeysuckle too. I may try that.

    Yellow is one of the colours that I had problems with, because the shade of yellow tended to turn out so bright yellow, until I found the right buttercup yellow which had less white in it, so in bright sunlight here in California it doesnt shock you when you walk in the room.

    It looks like there are some good leads here!I love pops of yellow.

    Also throughout history certain colors had definite connotations.
    EX: Purple was considered a color for royalty, high class, quality, etc.
