ORANGE AND BLUE AND BROWN...OH MY!



© Melissa Nowakowski 2009

Every so often an unusual colour-theme pops its lil' head out from the same old boring colour trends and really makes a splash. For this Planner, it's orange, blue and brown. You've seen blue and brown. You've seen orange and brown. It's likely that you've even seen orange and blue. But rarely do you see all three together.

A bit bold, a bit suave and ever-so-stylish this colour combo can turn any event from "Oh how pretty" to "oh my, what colour!"

Whether the colour is exposed through stripes, solids or polka dots or whether two colours are prominent with the third merely acting as an accent, orange, blue and brown is one combo that stands out from the rest.

Mix bright orange with royal blue and brown for a fun, bold effect. Or pair up burnt orange, ice blue and brown for a more sophisticated pallette. Whatever shade you choose offers up endless possibilities.

Thanks for all the tips. I guess I have been sitting a lot on the sidelines to learn as much as I can. I love to learn, but Faith without works is dead. Thanks for your inspiration to get more active with my blog.
