Waverly Modern Essentials...Orange Love

I'm finally keeping my promise to my girls and redoing (or should I say finally doing) their bedrooms for their high school years.  You know how much I love orange, so I danced a bit of a jig (not in front of her, mind you, as that would surely mortify her) when one of my girls agreed to this fabric for her window treatments...





This is from Waverly's Modern Essentials line. (The white is very bright, really.  I had to take my own picture to show you, as it wasn't on their website.)  While I do love for a home's decor to have flow and continuity, there are times when, in the private spaces like bedrooms, you can go in a bit of a different direction.   After all, design should reflect who you are, and what better way to encourage your children in self-expression than in the design of their bedrooms?  This room will be blue, white and orange.  True teenager.  All her choice.  It will take some time, but...

Stay tuned (and wish me luck!  If I say I like it, it may be all over)...

Talk to you soon,
Carol

    I love it! I can't wait to see what you pair with that fabric. Did she insist on orange walls? ;-)

    I love the orange. It is one of my favorite colors. Supposedly orange is a color stimulating creativity. I look forward to seeing the reveal.

    OOoh, I love that! Does it come in other colorways? Is this a new offering, I haven't seen it before? I'd love to know if it comes in a green? Carry on with it, looks like it will be great!

    I'm a big lover of color orange. This color demands attention. The softer oranges such as peach are even friendlier, and more soothing.Orange is also mentally stimulating as well as sociable.
