Additional Color Palettes
Dusty Shell Pink and Purple were also colors I saw at market. In order to keep the Dusty Pink from being tooooo feminine (as if you really can), pairing it with Charcoal Gray might help to give it broader appeal. Speaking of Gray…Grays of all shades were also prevalent, even in furniture finishes. In fact, I heard more than once at market that, "Gray is the new Brown". We'll see. Personally, Black and Cream will always be my personal choices for neutrals, but I am open to Gray. I'm working on a living room/entryway project right now in which the client chose Silver Gray, White and Icey Spa Blue Gray as the palette. It is a very pretty combo. Back to the purple. The purple I saw this market was really…well purple. Take a look below and tell me what you think?

I love the purples paired with the warm wood tones in purple picture #1 above. Could you do purples and greys with warm wood tones? Pink…goes right back to the bad mauve days for me!!! Let us just hope that someone doesn’t get the idea to put the new green, purple and pink all in one house…!
I also really like the white table in purple picture #3, is that 4 tables clustered together? Cool idea if it is!
Thanks for another great post! Keep them coming!

Purple with Gray is a beautiful combo. Yes, that is four individual tables grouped together. This is a great solution when you have some of the current expanded length sofas and sectionals now available in the market.
Interesting! “Gray is the new brown,” huh? I have been seeing a lot of it lately–guess that’s why. I’m with you on the black and cream. I won’t be changing that around my house any time soon, anyway. But it’s fun to see what the trends are going to be. Thanks!
I went through my purple phase already. I do like the pinks though – if they do not resemble mauve. I do love the charcoal gray though – paired with almost anything.
Not feeling the purple right now. I could handle gray. And the pink is soooooo romantic. I love it.
