Board #391: Seaglass and Velvet
I love the colors found in this photo of old jewelry boxes - that pale, barely there seaglass blue, and that orange! I would call it rust, but it's far to soft and velvety for that. I think this would make for a beautiful summer palette - it's fresh, yet there's something classically romantic about it. Perhaps for a wedding in the desert, or on the beach.
Mood: fresh romance

These are the colors I'm leaning towards for my socal picnic wedding. They're so fun.
Oooh delicious! I love it!
Would you call that "Tiffany" blue?
Beautiful.
what a lovely collection!
oh, love! one of my current favorite color combos right now for sure!!
One of my favorite boards ever. I am always a sucker for soft aquas and blues, such a nice neutral for warm flowers. Love the washed out, feminine quality to all of these pics.
Ah, what a beautiful combination - I love it! Thank you for all your inspirational collages, they bring a flash of colour and delight to each day.

seaglass...that's the perfect name for that color. Breathtaking combo.

Love the blue and orange together - such an unexpected color combo.

This color combo is absolutely gorgeous! This would look lovely with antique blue mason jars for flowers...
Just beautiful! Love it!
this one is sooooooooo perty. i would like to live here.
might you call the orange terracotta? It reminds me of the soft warm hues of the bleached pots on the steps of my house. Really, a very inspired combination.
Terra cotta sounds perfect!
I absolutely love this post. I think that this is what I have been looking for. This may be a winner for my outdoor wedding next summer. Thank you so much. Your work is great.
Orange and Blue being opposite on the color wheel shows what complementary colors are all about! Very nice.
