Inspiration: Color Trend - Purple and Orange
Inspired by nature, this combination is beautiful and calming.
I fell in love with this mix of colors when I was cutting red onions (which are purple, in reality) and carrots. It would be a rich and romantic blend for a bouquet as well as a table setting. This would be lovely for fall or summer weddings!

DIY: Homemade Sidewalk Paint - Patio Disco Dance Floor
Make Your Own Sidewalk Paint with 3 Cheap and Easy Ingredients!
Recently I hosted a disco dance party for a bunch of little kids in my backyard. We tried this new method of making sidewalk paint to create a disco dance floor. It was VERY easy, VERY economical and really cool looking!
First, the RECIPE:
1C water
1C corn starch
2T gel food coloring
Then, just stir it up well and get some cheap paint brushes and go! So easy, my 2 year old was able to do it without trouble.
It was a great time and they danced for hours!
Also, it rained later that day and it completely washed away every bit of paint and color with absolutely no trace of the paint left behind!
Have you ever tried sidewalk paint? Any ideas how to keep that vibrant color longer?!

Inspiration: Color Trend - Hot Pink and Warm Burgundy
WOW! Is it burgundy? Is it wine? Is it cranberry? Call it what you want, but what ever you do, pair it with hot pink.
My favorite picture is that pair of men's oxfords with the hot pink laces. I want to marry the man who can wear those with confidence. Also, those flowers! This would be a great color scheme in the fall, but would work equally well for summer.

Inspiration: Great Color Trend - Neon!
NEON IS ON!
Check out all this neon out there. It was a trend some started to try out in 2012. I chose some nice shots of people using neon in really creative and beautiful ways.
Here are some great inspiration pictures to give you a hint of what is out there.
Really amazing wall style and dessert vignette by Somewhere Splendid.
The woodland creatures warm my heart, but add neon to that - WOWzers.

Neon and nude are nice to look at, too!
Cool DIY from Green Wedding Shoes Blog. Not sure if the neon would hold up on the toes of the shoes for long, but they sure look cool here!
