If you, like me, spend most of your visit at the Royal Ontario
Museum at their aquarium, awestruck by the vibrancy inside, you know for sure that you're suffering from colour deprivation! |
As winter is holding us in a firm grip, let's lift our spirits by springing into colour, and let's do it pronto, no better time than now.
While we're at it, let's also have some fun! That means going beyond the typical addition of accent pillow, colourful throw or bouquet of tulips. I'm talking real projects here with a colourful impact. After all, when we're over it, we can always paint over it.
Here we go:
Paint trim, baseboards and mouldings a cheery yellow!

I am craving colour in my windows now! In this
