LOOONG Vacation...Color Trends





That was a long vacation from blogging. Sorry, won't do that again. I'm back, it's getting to be spring...and time for new birth! Don't you feel like changing wall colors and re-doing this time of year?? I was looking on line at color trends for spring/summer 08. Here are some of my faves.


GREEN Everyone is thinking environmentally green, and visual green. "green is on its way to a starring role as the newest "neutral" color. Mid-tones of fern, palm, pine and sage used alone or with clear blue or aqua create living spaces that conjure a sense of outdoor-friendly living."


BLUE Leatrice Eiseman of Pantone Color Institute "As a reflection of the times, Blue Iris brings together the dependable aspect of blue, underscored by a strong, soul-searching purple cast."


CREWEL In our high-tech world, we crave simplicity - warm rich colors of jewel tones, deep reds, browns, spicy orange and deep-toned blues.


ETHNIC ACCENTS Still a trend to accent with ethnic pieces..Asian, Indian, Island..you choose. It really livens up a room and reflects your personality.


One trend that doesn't change..Eisenlauer Team is still your local Real Estate experts. We'd love to help you buy or sell a home in Pleasant Hill, Altoona, S.E. Polk, or anywhere in Des Moines. Two full-time Realtors to serve your needs.
