The Power of Color

Wow, It's been over a week that I have not posted on my Blogs, So sorry to everyone following me. It has been a crazy month, so much going on. And with holidays getting closer and closer I am going to have to work extra hard to keep a head of the whole program. 

Today I want to talk about setting up displays and designs in your home or business, Using the " Power of color" to organize and give life and meaning to your vision you want to convey to your guest or customers or just anyone walking by your store or those few that even stare into your windows at night when they drive by your home, Hopefully few of them around, but it happens, I have done it, Something catches your eye when you drive by a home and all the lights are on and windows are not draped or blinded and you see the wonderful decor in a home, and nine out of ten times it's the color that catches your eye, the brief moment, that flash of color that pulls it all together in design. So besides lurking outside peoples homes catches glimpses of home decor, how else can we tab into this power of color to create that welcome or salesman ship to promote product or our style of living. 


RED being the strongest color in the color wheel it is sure to draw attention to any display or decor set up. 



Coordinate your setups with like colors, Very easy to organize the overall impact this way. 


Simple shapes with simple color, texture, finish give a major impact to your displays.


Whites and Cream colors being the dominate color choice here,and adding the copper and browns really makes this set up stand up and take notice. A woodland wonderland. 

One of my favorite ways of making an impact in home decor is pulling together collections you have in your home and making a major statement on a sideboard or mantel. The use of glass which is really no color and yet reflexes all the colors of the spectrum can make a major statement in the room, and yet have a simple calming effect without the thought of clutter, Its easy and fast way to keep your collections organized also. 


I just love this look of clear glass all gathered together and organized to show off a collections. Color is there but it's just a different wave length of color we are seeing. 

Greens being the dominate color choice for this display and yet use of other complimentary colors such as the mustard and rose stripe cloth and yet it all lives in harmony, just a small collection to show off. 


I have to leave you with this last photo. The impact of this Gold choice in color is so magnificent for this display. The whole set up just glitters and glows with the excitement of the Holiday. A wonderful example of the " Power of Color" 

Well I hope I have given you all some ideas and direction when it comes to doing your set ups in your home or business. It's easy, Just choose that color theme and make it happen, it will turn out great every time.

Till later, Always remember, Make everyday a Holiday! 

Always my best,

Tim
