  1. Hi Caroline, thanks for stopping by my blog and thanks for the compliment. The house is still a work in progress, but I would love to do something if you're really interested - just let me know!
    I love the Pantone cards - I'm sure that I've seen mugs with the colours and graphics on the side which look really cool, but typically I can't remember where. My house is littered with Farrow & Ball colour cards, and I am continually picking new ones up - I just love seeing the little oblong colours side by side - it's an addiction. The subtle pink and deep, deep blues on your mood board are an amazing combination. Love how it looks just as good in black and white - it really brings out the textures - the dark colours become like velvet.

    1. Thank you! Ok-keep me posted with your house and send over a few more photos-as and when you're ready-trend.daily@yahoo.co.uk. By the way-I just got the brand new Fired Earth paint card through today-some amazing colours, so keep an eye out for it and of course I'll be using them for some more moodboards! :)

  4. Your styling is really nice and these Pantone Postcards come in handy right? I have the Pantone swatchbooks for print and always wish they would be bigger.
    I like how you give us different exposures.

    Have a nice weekend. x

  5. Thanks Tina! Yes they're great-although annoyingly dont have the 2012 colour in there (2011 box) so I may try and get hold of that somehow! Enjoy all this glorious sunshine! Cx

  6. Caroline - more of my favourite colour combinations! I once saw a shoot in a magazine (when I was still a teen) with dark blue painted wooden floors - poppy seed blue they callled it. I know one today I will have a home with poppy seed blue floors...
