What is Take 5 you ask…well it is a collection of 5 things that I think you will all enjoy! It can be themed…random…food…crafts…home decor and everything in between. Hopefully you will love them enough to take 5 minutes out of your busy day… relax and enjoy! Today it’s about
 the color
Lavender!
Today we are going to explore the lovely world of lavender!
I never really realized how soothing this color truly is. You can almost smell the sweet fragrance of lilacs as they hang with never ending beauty from their branches. While looking at many different room decors featuring this beautiful shade…I thought to myself…why haven’t I used this more?
Let’s take peek at a few rooms that give this color the attention it deserves.
For the cottage style lover..this room is a dream come true. Fresh flowers, vases with tinted water…sachets in an ombre of lavender…soft vintage doilies and a gorgeous vintage print topped off with chippy white vintage furniture and ruffles…well the entire space becomes magical!
Calm and serene…all of the shades of lavender are very understated here but blended together they make a real design presence. The damask wall paper …the beautiful shade of the couch and chair…the softness of the ottoman and the Pops of color from the rug and accessories and pillows just creates a perfect harmony.
Soft and sweet the bead board walls are simply sensational in this shade of lavender…with the white molding adding to the wow factor…this room is just amazing. The comfy beautiful chairs…the delicious mint green accents and the perfect print all equals a
fresh and crisp cottage space.
Now this room offers a bit of drama…the fabulous ceiling…the amazing chandelier…the soft tint of lavender on the walls and then a BLAST of purple to the wow…and double wow factor! They all seem to melt into one incredible space.
The lavender in this room is so pale and soft but adds to the cozy and comfy feel of the room. With touches of deeper lavender and a milky blue…this space just seems to float on a cloud. A vintage cottage style that is just so easy to fall in love with.
Many more colors to explore and thousands of pallets to discover!
