Color me sluggish

It was a gray day here in SoCal, with another 4 gray days in the forecast. It’s probably a very good thing that I live in a generally sunny place, because gray seems to suck the energy right out of me and make me want to do nothing but curl up with a book or a movie and something hot to drink.

Unfortunately, my current to-do list does not leave a lot of room for reading and movie watching, so I resorted to my folder of bookmarked color favorites for a little online chromatherapy.

Nothing like lots of color on your calendar to inspire you into action.

How cheery would this set of butterfly prints look grouped together on a wall?

 

Polka dots are always good for brightening things up. Love these cute bobby pins from Anthropologie.

And this cabinet I saw on Flickr…I’m seriously thinking I need to line the backs of the shelves in my loft like this.

 

A rainbow stack of colanders from Target.

And last, but not least…a little bit of chromaliciousness from the incomparable Ikea.
