Color Studies: No. 2

When designing your event, from a small scale dinner parties to birthday celebrations, holiday gatherings to weddings, it can be a bit overwhelming to settle on any one idea (thank you, pinterest). Do yourself a favor and start small. The most simple way to begin an event plan is to select a few colors to base the look of the event on. You can then build in textures, shades, smells, sounds and tastes, based on that carefully selected base color palette.

Each week, we'll discover a new potential color palette to inspire the start of your next bash.

Poppy Red - 1788C // Orange - 1645C // Purple - 7676C // Deep Royal - 7687C // Sky Blue - 291 C // Light Yellow - 1205 C

Party on.
