A silver ornament and sprigs of evergreen are nods to the holiday season, but this idea is versatile: Flowers could be any color or type that complements your china and table linens.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiZcbIEQV5Z3eJSclTLzcAJY-TO1vd94_Sk6gkJWLJI0EC_-lFBtI6M2lHxxXKiLkq1Ao01QZztZrWCSAUe0Yq-04AMS58wj2PNTFkdOxa9oS9Ua1jiQCxwjbt9npaSMWAnxPKVIRc1C8Ix/s640/Simple-Christmas-Centerpieces-2012-ideas-8.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Sparkling White</span> </b></span></div><br />Capture the look of a snowy Christmas with an all-white centerpiece and table decor. The secret to a beautiful monochromatic table setting is using a variety of materials. Here, the table boasts everything from elegant white orchids to dishes and flatware in shades of ivory.<b> </b><br /><br /><b>Editor's Tip:</b> Texture often assumes greater importance in a monochromatic setting. The ribbed vases, pressed-glass stemware, and embroidered tablecloth all add interest to the scene.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgej8dcl5lwZJZrwzMALODnwAi2CakwIjIQW-orXLlHTLnHJEaVZ8848jmpPffbnCWIPrJPsm64b-d8xVL0pKD9uUbcqvKK2TsTojyLQ0vGfGltdlsT2MHumPGqxIUqoJ8UfreROT3ckol/s640/Simple-Christmas-Centerpieces-2012-ideas-7.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Flowers and Votives</span> </b></span></div><br />A block of soaked florist's foam holds this arrangement in place. Three glass votive cups were set on top of the foam -- making it easy to change the candles as needed. Curly twigs inserted into the foam hold the glass cups in place. Next, flowers and greens are arranged around the sides of the foam, draping down to the tabletop.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgU6FoREXv0q5tQ1xPlljCTYPsRuVxkkedcx2o0nnJMUCJcT4eELX6xy9bIoQRKVOWk5yUfYAdXfmnC0vbkGv3LTUO-WwIlQLbisWuRVrOq5rsL47ujR1wWwwuMGALgnGzy_H6ChyQZ_bQl/s640/Simple-Christmas-Centerpieces-2012-ideas-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Gilded Fruit</span> </b></span></div><br />Whether silver, gold, or copper, metallics can make a table spectacular when displayed in clear glass containers. Look for gilded artificial fruits (these are pomegranates) at a crafts or floral supply store, or make your own (see link below). Mix in a few small- and medium-size beads, garlands, or berries for added glimmer.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEi1tksRNOMYZnAEOshvaZIlHTuTNpVkyRToUNib7I1QdCxgcnpqET0NyNazx4RqK7yhf2Aos0nTcwfRC9QJesoWRoNBjXrEHtraVzp6SUZTHSZIZjca2ltXHeLaK0SSsG9wz_iNn-Z9JmnR/s640/Simple-Christmas-Centerpieces-2012-ideas-5.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Switch It Up</span> </b></span></div><br />Centerpieces usually run the length of the table. For something different, keep the centerpiece in the middle of the table, but stretch it across the width instead. Here, evergreen boughs drape across the table horizontally and are accented with pretty red flowers and white berry sprigs.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh1x5tvxCzxDv_F-sRNPLUAYqFouOzc47tQtlCO82E1wVxFzCZ3KPvIAvHexS5R_V5o5tN9oTk_DW0cH87SnsjU10ZGTJH5JCbkJK7i1tk41xBwie8Swdn_HTxIrEn4pncQHKwTUScFbO5Z/s640/Simple-Christmas-Centerpieces-2012-ideas-4.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Low Glow</span> </b></span></div><br />Real or artificial magnolia leaves (we gave ours a quick spritz of gold paint) are set on a flat platter to form the foundation for an arrangement of holiday ornaments and tiny berry sprigs.

Stand pillar candles on supports, such as candleholders or even soup cans, so they are set at different heights. Next, add bowls or low containers of damp florist's foam and arrange the greenery. A sweep of garland and a cardinal's nest add a final touch.<b> </b><br /><b> Editor's Tip:</b><br />Be sure to keep the candle flames a safe distance from the greenery and other elements.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiL5D_rKtaT7AP7QwN7POuuXbTUptSiv2yQD3o7qW0h1GBC3FEFCFTlzYWEDGcbhEDKtzGKKxaNBOLR3IpSbvljFup8yJ7527cGdsZyaw9bRe9jcB1OtoXY2dopM4MaYQqEpsf95TAzud5S/s640/Simple-Christmas-Centerpieces-2012-ideas.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Fresh Arrangement</span> </b></span></div><br />To make this fresh floral centerpiece, fill a silver ice bucket with soaked florist's foam.

Handmade stoneware displayed on the shelves coordinates with the colorful checkerboard-tile backsplash, and baskets add a layer of texture.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhitwHpKIdS2QXRBaEjkBGWMB3xwAaV0l21jYFCuuKSDeqpGW2cAIc6VksMcCgxtKr3zxH70EsEPOZlJ7agMAXqQwIibcjBdejZ1fZGO689BDExcOBW9SKwWM5tqyQs5fuU95TolkMB/s640/Open-Storage-Ideas-kitchen-design-2012-3.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Metal Shelves</span> </b></span></div><br />Sleek metal shelves match the contemporary design of this kitchen, which also boasts a stainless-steel apron-front sink and stainless-steel appliances.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhmeok7I18yIqxv5HlJKsWs1Qdb6VuJQfVcVeAaqgNLqcAYKOY-iYru5VKmNGCo6SN25MZ7M9C6NY8CVor5iTje9v3AgLsGiUz-F-G6VdgLKmFej6o37D29SKfryXbq0tYLF9fRcPpK/s640/Open-Storage-Ideas-kitchen-design-2012-2.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /><b><span style="font-size: large;"><span class="heading2">Bookshelves Used as a Pantry</span> </span></b></div><br />Walnut shelves stacked with sculptural supplies stretch to the ceiling in this kitchen. The dramatic effect is achieved by stacking objects so they occupy the space instead of simply filling it. A tall bookcase with adjustable shelves can serve this pantry function in any kitchen. Be sure the shelves and shelf supports are sturdy enough to bear the weight of dishes and food supplies.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgrNo2zbhwgkPrkDXRPv5G9E3JApCHP_RDtf88019dcGVadnz96Pp3jneKax_jcXCd0gjCIWoeQ-Nkbptecgf2NsGasmsF0TF_2rAww8s-ygG7GDsabsfpxi8gwFr7DGwUjsT7iWY2D/s640/Open-Storage-Ideas-kitchen-design-2012.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Small and Customized Space</span> </b></span></div><br />Take advantage of a small nook by adding a few shelves. The extra storage space will be more useful and will look more finished than an empty wall.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjj2XtBuGVmnyisCYVW_jXzw8yR8diJW5cWdMshQFIqiq1ETXM5v5ZTGcgeXijRLhnkZ-caU8RBni2Zey8wLjLVVfHl8w5JDxaVFUqjzKCMhJt9WJGajowu8shIUQrcfxzuNTNHA94q/s640/Open-Storage-Ideas-kitchen-design-2012-5.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Updated Plate Rack</span></b></span></div><br />This shelving unit, a modern take on a plate rack, plays off the grid design of the cabinets and windows. With a unit like this, it's best to display a set of dishes, cups, and saucers that share a common design idea or pattern. A random collection of cups and mugs would create a less refined effect.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhbxIDNCyBY67-h3wv6kGX-ukNbd1qY95nxktG43qDimHiQtaqAHlQYbDdhw4W0ktu8Ob55qpfoTMrZJBZzFTTWVJpHeA1YG8aeS7n_IIS9JBjP7HFcigbl1COmkPSaExr8eKyc7kL1/s640/Open-Storage-Ideas-kitchen-design-2012-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Corner Kitchen Shelving Unit</span></b></span></div><br />This open corner unit is deep enough to hold a small microwave and roomy enough to handle a cookbook collection. Custom-built to fill the corner adjacent to a window seat, the shelving keeps supplies within view and gives the kitchen a custom look.

The bright reds, golden yellows, and vibrant oranges can be mixed and matched with evergreen colors, such as blues, greens, or neutrals, to create a cozy and comfortable look that carries panache year-round.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjTMcrFHc0SGRrt0SWIya54gzDtXOGMZ4CTQZRYGlvl_t-uM8n5N9hizQ0F5JCC3CQPbVFbpiPfVtJEBuiw2k82NMw4i-hT4pKNiXkjBOihfltBhamLkRACSZjjQwTON8xl8KokXZ7B/s640/Decorating-in-Orange-ideas-3.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Brighten Your Outlook</span> </b></span></div><br />Deep color creates a cozy ambiance in this sitting area. A curvy vine pattern on blue-green wallpaper softens the masculine lines of the dark wood shelving and brown wing chair. To keep the room lively, vibrant orange curtain panels frame the window while orange pillows prevent the chair from becoming a dark mass in the room. Orange accents, such as a small runner on the side table dot the room with the peppy hue.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4VRjT0tPNmFKd6rOzp5Lk4oPy9H6svzQeaX941RIyWAflcArEl7baLjv9swXn2j9wyuyZx5WSfhQgZ4lucnQacshkj41aTA7H7VX0Ec_tqyaWRLU0XlwLkQ_n1974fRduIP9R2q7f/s640/Decorating-in-Orange-ideas-9.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Orange Crush</span></b></span></div><br />Subtle variations of orange harmonize perfectly in this sunlit living room. From the apricot walls to the peachy curtains, the various shades make the color interesting but not overpowering.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjz2JQ9suVTLhM7jemDfonAMTs5QpKbhE1IdPV9nqFWyvj0LIZuctbizA0MMn4jdhqRbJD76YJ75bube5UvQAMvgra3STpgwuWRdX6V-5gLz2MHIA5A5XnHNU_Lo0VtlxiNXbMpq-CH/s640/Decorating-in-Orange-ideas-4.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span style="color: orange;"> </span><span class="heading2" style="color: orange;">Side by Side</span></b></span> </div><br />Orange and hot pink make a harmonious pair. A large piece of artwork adds brightness to the white walls. Orange pillows and throws are a warm and cuddly touch. Both shades are present in the one-of-a-kind chandelier.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-trftFz4N-wBp8JO42a4RE9XhidCp1JquFiwZi5VtsHDWRL6MaSDtFx-QTQeXm-Sl1dXRarPZceTbQw7i0Gs4-DI15YLrZyXICASuiooYy8j1pbZsXz8vUZVvVf5cit71rt6XJi6l/s640/Decorating-in-Orange-ideas-5.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Under Cover</span></b></span></div><br />Make an impact with colorful furnishings that don't require permanent commitment. In this lively living room, slipcovers bring saturated color to basic chair and ottoman shapes. A bargain armchair found at an estate sale got a new personality with splashy solid red. A new cube ottoman matches with orange slipcovers banded in red. For a bit of visual relief, the large sofa is slipcovered in plain white. The side table, a tag sale find, gets new life with a coat of bold red paint.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjppYWMkGjWkjx8ZrWaTKAXqlxxw8c1ApnVlGjRNgWacI4wAFDfH3IBYoeg9jGqjCepvI-ea3Kr3OKWHxdgmKS7RWQUNonvrGTD5zJs4I5tDVWtiGa-bK5gBOEiB__Cen0BYfHSt-Dk/s640/Decorating-in-Orange-ideas-2.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">With Complements</span> </b></span></div><br />Orange walls dominate the color palette in this dramatic yet inviting dining room. A tone-on-tone pattern adds depth to the energetic vibe and keeps the broad expanse of vibrant wall color interesting. Complementary blue creates a focus in the paired artwork on the wall and brings in a cool note of color to balance the warmth of orange. Frames and furnishings provide solid shapes of black and dark brown to counter the delicacy of the patterns.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhlb4MTjL8IKQ_C2PQIsg9inoe51GtgUkWg_8EAS4F4WEkVu7v8TOJ2gyi6boEqOC72fSjfVfMqZNESRx0qXYqABiUyAx3PXwS6mInWCL18zTovVyPHa7ZGpY4PrAhfN0jpO4fjDMTo/s640/Decorating-in-Orange-ideas.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Juicy Hues</span> </b></span></div><br />Vivid, zesty orange is a perfect hue for any room, such as an office, that would benefit from orange's energetic vibe. In this basement craft room/office an adjacent wall in lime green provides a cool contrast to the hot orange but keeps things in the citrus family. Tone-on-tone painted flowers on the orange wall add lively pattern. Slipcovers on the chairs encapsulate the color scheme with powder blue, lime, and orange stripes, introducing the third color, blue, into the mix.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="532" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiWzl4jCmggGeIuk9LnMNSwO_p5svqk-bza_9WFURkChZ7Ta7gf4XlerjS4_kPDxwCb4ZYMQyy-Dd1nYX9iDxJb4aCXYWGR6TJWxAx6kk8XGyBV0OCmMbf6Mo4ssZcsZHhcD0sZ4Jrp/s640/Decorating-in-Orange-ideas-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Citrus Punch</span></b></span></div><br />If your work space could use an injection of pure energy, bring in some vivid orange paint and fabrics to do the job. Extend the life of old chairs with slipcovers made of orange, pink, and yellow pattern fabric. Rejuvenate a wicker table with tangerine spray paint and create a new striped rug in an afternoon with paint, painter's tape, and a canvas drop cloth. Add some flirty cotton curtain panels and you have a room designed with and for productive energy.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh-E6tsQ8WHf_2JNRCe0t2b45UaKX9JfUF_J-KIgPTlPjIVGd8DnPe2VU85uKhq2BSkvxEtK2K2MSzxYlZuuFCBiP3owb8-Y8TUDix0q-mKA30KDR8cXt8C1DHNDxYdSD99GWMqp7SD/s640/Decorating-in-Orange-ideas-7.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Orange Everywhere</span></b></span></div><br />This living room is small on space but long on style with orange sofas and orange walls. An unusual complementary color scheme of orange and blue serves to rev up each hue.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEg8A-pu3B3i-HmVUIiIhWO_nCWd8inJebQhCsh2RBH4hVbw7pzNG3hqeqDkKGlIqzlKNLkOEzLlDxaaCzJSoqenJpkAT8D9UKkd6w1EFYDlk2yqp93grXH9iDnUPQ8gepUF5apJpbnH/s640/Decorating-in-Orange-ideas-8.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Light Bright</span></b></span></div><br />A deep orange adds life to this bedroom. During the day the color is bold and energizing. At night it's warm and cozy. The wooden bed frame, side table, and chair work together to ground the bright walls. The antique blanket chest at the foot of the bed brings together all the colors in the room.

Here are tips on balancing a blue bedroom to turn it into a sophisticated retreat and make it work with lots of different design styles.<br />Please take a look on  pictures collections bellow. I hope you like it , Enjoy !!<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgeB8UBRkexm28BreE-RncblXFra4NlrtF8MHSg2CZcORbufI32ELUARP8Y04dc8xnyYDJjukzyoZ39srouhgR_PKX4dKiI9f9bvjsZ2DXsT3mOWqbHGdOatblCiqyelEuPSxd82vqQ/s640/Bedroom-Color-Ideas-Blue-9.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Accent with Color</span> </b></span></div><br />Add a spark of interest to your room with a bright accent color that complements the shade of blue. The soft yellow accents and painted ceiling give this blue room a fun and unique appeal. Patterned bed pillows and upholstered chairs bring texture to the room, while the red area rug ties the elements together.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheap8ZZQ-ZUvF3YqOYmfgr6KGXpW-wIXOxI_GcQhwSZ3Ss4mGXsbOG65zxBQOxfFTPu1eG75mJiCCAswhvlI1ruaxuL_FQmsWzI7_Nwaen5HEhkLHyHLTJ1pxEsu-q7WWheMe-a_oJ/s640/Bedroom-Color-Ideas-Blue-4.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Mixing Patterns</span> </b></span></div><br />A soft, dusky blue repeats in different fabrics, including the rug, throughout the room to add variety and interest to an otherwise neutral palette. The striped walls are a subtle contrast that blends in with the rest of the patterns. If you?re using several patterns, vary the size and complexity, but you?d be wise to stay away from more than one bold print to prevent clashing.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvmH_9alRkpR76rQyqEOnN2C8QWpYz5u2j6j9eLaIYBkWt-BQdAz0k__ZJ1jXavmA5ortjoNEze27HIYk5nJHYb5tD0hvhN-ggyBlH1SQOJehUx3f-0yj8pg0qjGIDHVb4LNbKDKLf/s640/Bedroom-Color-Ideas-Blue-11.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Repeat for Emphasis</span></b></span></div><br />Although this room is mostly cream, it?s the blue pattern that draws attention. Using the same print throughout the room multiplies the impact and creates unity. Here, the pattern used for the pillows is also found on the window shade and draperies, giving the room an all-over blue accent.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjqCNJHkJGKmSSbK1hsgJ8cKLCOrb0Cz-u1Hc1kWLbk7FxTUA_eSz7ZIK6X5kqAOQ-816Duikd75ohvZLiSinJzQTOTRgt8Dwxt4BuvfqZVvYyvjDzEo40ZT4NUveE03-Om7eg_q_pk/s640/Bedroom-Color-Ideas-Blue-12.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Regal Retreat</span></b></span></div><br />Walls painted a soothing spa blue create the perfect backdrop for the elegant elements of this bedroom. The stately fireplace, floor-length curtains, and large mirror add to the air of elegance. A fluffy down comforter and padded headboard keep the bedroom comfy.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEicJm_cKCMGE0cs5jed16VGzM5aKSUuizWUQe4unmKllm7YPbItX-chBzjU1ozno2EMddpJ8sH5bGobMRfPT9Uh5IsEMxt7PFe7efBjhktLXY9lZ1ZstpmlaVpUoXsNzXft_hiC-6Z_/s640/Bedroom-Color-Ideas-Blue-5.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">The Classic</span></b></span></div><br />Blue and white is a classic color combination that brings a warm comfort to any bedroom. The blue paisley curtains and bed skirt contrast nicely with the creamy white comforter. The striped cotton rugs add a casual cottage feel to the room. Another color option plays out overhead: The planked ceiling is painted a soft sky blue.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEixhaoxr7rjoNvwycMGlV1x1UWEoqaRpxiFzvstWHoxZR9aHnJ6EPmAOHPDiR7mAAXyk4UmOZohbiN00PCiLQ0Pbi24zoxMApVNo9l0tRuymxECfpwPNlmRkyRifCgaq-E-o2jGISK_/s640/Bedroom-Color-Ideas-Blue-10.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Timeless Aqua</span></b></span></div><br />Keep a child?s bedroom airy and light with soft, watery blues. These tones help create a calming and welcoming atmosphere. Here, smooth walls and clean white bedding contrast the bouncy ruffles of the window treatments  a sophisticated style that?s adaptable for a growing child.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgZFKX2Qb44mlwna_hH4Cid7taqz_lY_S1HrlUGgRRyQXoprmG7F4m_9-UU51vRI2qckR1jNdm7xCq6IrcCgYvHu3xwYiVWxy2XseDhlTDPFCjWVTCCrbyDFMyE8ydv6Wu0lelx_4Sf/s640/Bedroom-Color-Ideas-Blue-7.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Great Lengths</span></b></span></div><br />Add style and sophistication to a bedroom with flowing bed curtains. In the same color as the wall, the curtains here are a subtle addition; the pink zigzag lining adds dimension and contrast. To make a statement, choose curtains in a contrasting color.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhhhVxqyiApVqd-rwfd_tqlKGfcL0VliM6nkawr2-Afpg5M0MVErMkIMGbskuA_NSUcGyi5SzRzXUw02WD6zOATIpN_YtW4xYB4htmYjrTrTmePo6jWBRDiFGXJ2giVozij63lcuTtS/s640/Bedroom-Color-Ideas-Blue-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">A Peaceful Place</span></b></span></div><br />If you?re looking to do blue in your bedroom but want a little variety, try teal. The rich tone has a twinge a green, giving basic blue an eye-catching variation. In this bedroom, a soothing palette of soft teals, blue-grays, and browns brings a feeling of serenity. Add a focal point such as the mirror above the bed to attract the eye. The warm brown walls pair with the cooler blue tones to create an inviting personal retreat.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhh-VMBUHHmscLbpwLZyAz_ZoKeoQCq1dCmAFD-V_EWyB2UmRL-pyK9gMbe0upgMUmmPD-uFSceBct-L1acsgNdDIkS8pvXIo5jEXTeotMKyCTKkRF2mQq7Y8qAUSEW2q-u6wfNjmgK/s640/Bedroom-Color-Ideas-Blue-8.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Balancing Act</span></b></span></div><br />Keep darker, muted blues from becoming dreary by balancing them with lighter colors. The darker shade of blue used on the walls adds elegance to this master bedroom. The large cream-color area rug and white bedding keep the room feeling open and airy despite the walls? rich shade.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjH9kaQAPaBCH2s_wgG_6JxYtFjpKBkYrQJ0vD98dnkqetM5UeaANyhowldXzS7tMl_55s8gosBAuet9Wc-KO7OK6zsy5UBjZef5IMLxb5uqlmRqWZ7QHANr-VcbgwwBlZgNdxEVHYS/s640/Bedroom-Color-Ideas-Blue-2.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">A Light Touch</span> </b></span></div><br />Add style to your bedroom with subtle patterns. Here, the mod floral on the bed frame enlivens the room?s soft neutrals. Used in moderation, the simple design mixes with muted colors to enhance the space overall.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhgSQi_acT6Sqoa5pAiTPpl8yC_Tf7kIMzYLCdAtybzmLr_HhB-1lKlv5cI_HtoMRq9FEaDHVK3wvtzm-o9rlNt44J4yHLFA6M-3WHT-cTHwBpQs-c4UIGYo10HUjMKnCpjCU3fDt8d/s640/Bedroom-Color-Ideas-Blue-3.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Frame It</span></b></span></div><br />Enliven a subtle color palette with a kick of a contrasting hue. The red-painted bed frame in this room stands out against the softer blue tones of the bedding, walls, and draperies. The bold color also gives the vintage bed an updated vibe. Framed postcards hung above the headboard are a simple way to add an art element to the wall.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhoMoQA-6dEuwKTYMV3pHT6WbhOLH5KTTZWgEDlIypTWJsTqZcyfE9hC9pfNiqtSser619EflO-AuwhsgnCPlzWrlbjPON7NsWK_UT3LS0J1HGpPArFl084wnteyT4ZZGKlPShtpM0b/s640/Bedroom-Color-Ideas-Blue.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Bold Prints</span> </b></span></div><br />Striking patterns are an excellent way to bring modern style to your bedroom. The bold blue pattern of the wallpaper and drapery fabric set against the rich brown and white bedding creates a unique, eye-catching look. Keep accessories to a minimum to enhance the modern feel.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjL-b8oSC56fXPKzCaMFxfbNwtaBTfpUvpgp9dtf0D7gCEQOfd7tQV5i5VBESai_UJvzWc9dCXCD7sFNRGmaN7-Wg0AGF_WfOyNzGrPOdJIwHb3J1Ad8jV7Gv8nzaTiNkA6_NX4VT9z/s640/Bedroom-Color-Ideas-Blue-13.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Heavenly Hue</span></b></span></div><br />The color blue always brings to mind thoughts of the sky. When used on a high ceiling, a light shade of blue will make your walls feel like they open to the sky. The wicker bench adds to the outdoorsy feeling of the bedroom.

New Kitchen Lighting Design Ideas 2012 From HGTV

Lighting designer Eddie Cohen of Design Light, Inc. shares his top six tips for improving task lighting in the kitchen.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjk_oM9FyDybkCKXmNmrLTZzlsGTOgHcvXbl2ExCcetGJi2VzB-OLwFzxcmrQDXjJip82llZ2rDcxL2fUTaseGYwJmniUXY-M-F_2PuEcPdBT508l-Y7tmhKqMNij6r8gXkFSv_wwid/s640/Kitchen-Lighting-decorating-ideas-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="display: block; zoom: 1;">Recessed lighting is a great way to focus light throughout a kitchen. It is important to have a lot of light on work surfaces, such as countertops, stoves and the sink area. This type of lighting can be aimed exactly where you most need it.

This type of lighting is also a very inexpensive add-on for existing kitchens. There are many different light bulbs such as halogen, xenon and fluorescent that can give your kitchen a completely different effect. Halogen and incandescent light are best.
