Colors for the Adventurous Ones
A week or two ago, I attended a webinar about the upcoming paint colors for 2011. There were four color schemes that they discussed that I would like to show you.
Today, I begin with the Adventurous Travelers.
Today, that is no longer the case. People are proud of their heritage and want to show off who they are as a person. They want to be unique and their family's history helps make them stand out in a crowd.
A few years ago Moroccan designs became very strong in the design world, but now there is also a presence of South African tribal designs.
Houndstooth and Paisleys have been around for a few seasons, but are being used everywhere these days!
Houndstooth was original to Scottland while Paisleys originated from India.
Animal skins are another popular pattern for this style of design.
Reptile prints are also a growing trend.
If you are an adventurous traveler that is proud of your heritage and love to display your treasures from traveling, then here are the colors for your home in 2011:

Enjoy!
