Emerald Week Day 4: Home Decorators Collection Guest Stylist Contest

Home Decorators Collection-Guest stylist-PinterestA  few weeks ago, I entered a Pinterest contest with Home Decorator’s Collection.   We were supposed to create pins for a board using HDC products.  I based my boards on – you guessed it – emerald.

Want to see?  Click here.

I didn’t win, but it was a lot of fun creating the over-the-top pins.  Have you ever entered a Pinterest contest?  How did it go?  I bet it was great!

You are so Cute, Smart and Organized!

Emerald Week Day 2: Colored Denim

Emerald-Week-StyleFlashy Emerald looks so right partnered with Black and White!

Here’s a cute, casual way to the add on-trend hue and keep your look polished and classic.

I don’t own emerald jeans yet, but my green long-sleeved Lands’ End Tee and my black and white scarf, a Canton find, have been one of my staple outfits the last few months.  Have any of you been brave enough to try emerald denim?  Let us see how you wear it!

Emerald Week – A Playful Kid’s Space

Emerald-Week-Kid's-RoomEmerald is the Color of the Year, and what better time to talk about to all things green than Saint Patrick’s Week?

No doubt you’ve noticed it in the stores; a little cooler and cleaner than the Forests and Hunters of the late 80’s and 90’s, but just similar enough to be a little hard to accept for those of us who remember the 80’s and 90’s. :)

It’s a fun, fresh color, though!  How are you incorporating into your decor?  Here’s a little inspiration from a child’s room.  I mixed emerald with it’s compliment, red-orange, to keep things bright and playful.

Have you added a little emerald to your home, yet?  Let me know what you’ve done!

You are so Cute, Smart and Organized!
