Color Therapy: Another Example of Red + Turquoise

red and turquoise living room via joyofnesting blogspot Color Therapy:  Another Example of Red + Turquoise This weekend, I had to share one more image of a room with the red + turquoise combo that I blogged about earlier this week.  I especially love the patterns in this living room. 


 Hope you all have a lovely weekend.  I’m going to see a brand new play by Wes Driver and Greg Greene, Twilight of the Gods, with my husband.  If you are in the Nashville area, you should really check it out – the reviews are awesome and I can’t wait to see it!   See you on Monday morning, my dears!

Pair pink with brown, gray, or black to ground it.  Pair it with white for a fresh, crisp look.

Keep foundation pieces neutral and use pink accessories that can be easily changed out.

Use simple patterns, especially geometric ones like checks and stripes.
