2013 is almost over; say hello to 2014!! You may be going to someone's party or you may be throwing one yourself, either way, New Year's Eve party decorations can be so fun!! Just about anything goes. If you need some last minute ideas, perhaps these will help. HAPPY NEW YEAR!!

I came across the work of Jillian Harris via House & Home (I love House & Home!). H & H showcased some of Jillian's spaces and I wanted to share them. I love her mix of vintage and modern. Most of her designs have a white backdrop which allows all the little touches to pop!

The spaces that designers at Tracery Interiors create are super classy and refined but still have elements of fun and unique to them. Timeless pieces and strong attention to detail keep their designs from looking dated and allow the space to easily change over time. Love their work!

There is a reason that most canvases are white. White is the perfect color on which to add color and create your masterpiece. Paige Schnell and Doug Davis of Tracery Interiors sure made an elegant work of art with this white canvas in Alabama. The base is so beautiful and crisp with clean lines that simple grays, pinks and natural woods pop to life. Simply gorgeous.

A fantastic green sofa will stop me in my tracks. Is it because green is my favorite color? Perhaps. Or maybe it's because a luxurious green couch is so unexpected that you can't help but stop and take a second look. Here are some shots to show what I mean.

If you are anything like me, then picking a new color for a room is no easy decision. There are so many to choose from, so many various shades and at some point, I almost give up and want to just leave it the color that it is! Ugh. MSN recently featured their Top 10 Home Colors so I thought I would share them. Maybe their suggestions will make choosing your next color, a little bit easier.
