August Colors Challenge

City Sonnet has a fun photo challenge for each day of the month where you get to share pictures as you play along. Today’s challenge is favorite color and that is a challenge in itself for I love all colors. But I think perhaps a soft creamy yellow is near the top of the list. It’s a happy color and we should always have things around us that make us happy. When I bought my house, the kitchen was a busy multi-color paisley wallpaper. Way too bust for a kitchen, so I repainted it in soft yellow to help calm the room. A kitchen should always be happy and calm because creations of deliciousness can never come from chaos.

Then you can use small accents of brighter colors to add a splash of personality. As I finished writing this post, I realized I used the wreath as a favorite color earlier this year, so I guess yellow is definitely a favorite color.

In closing, I remind you of the color of Kindness. While we think kindness has no color, it has a hue of brightness that we should share wherever we go.

April 1st, Favorite Color

Citysonnet has posted her photo challenge list for the month of April. I think that I can honestly say that, even thought I love shades of blue, a soft yellow is probably my favorite. It is such a happy color. My kitchen is small so I painted it a creamy yellow to make the room lighter and to give the feel of a happy place.

I decorated this grapevine wreath to add more yellow accents to the room. Yellow always reminds me of the many bright colors of yellow flowers, happy flowers. Below are a few of mine from last year – can’t wait to see them this year.

In closing, I remind you of the beauty and happiness of kindness. Share it often.
