Color Inspiration: Coral

Love coral.  As I was searching for inspiration, it became apparent that coral furniture is seriously lacking.  I think I'll have to remedy that.  Hmmm...what to paint, what to paint?  Have you experimented with this wonderfully bold color?

  3. I really like coral, and I agree that it is rarely shown on the interwebs. hehe

    I found fabric that Sarah Richardson used in her first daughter's nursery, and I sewed pillow cushions a few years ago. I luckily found an amazing carpet that pulls out the exact colour of coral in the covers. (https://picasaweb.google.com/saaraah/LivingRoom#5606545389662934802)

  4. I am strangely addicted to the color coral! Please paint some furniture and let us all see! Maybe it will inspire me to paint something as well!

  5. I think coral is such a fun, vibrant and happy color. I usually wear it on my toes for the summer. I love the JCrew clutch and that front door makes a statement. As you know, I admired a coral night stand that you painted a few months back. That was gorgeous!

  9. I am definitely crushing on coral these days. I even did a post about it myself last month.

    I've got a can of coral Glidden paint coming my way, but I haven't decided what to paint yet. Decisions, decisions!
