With July 4th just around the corner I wanted to play with the idea of a summery color palette with an Americana feel that wasn’t necessarily traditional red, white and blue. I love how calming and breezy this color combination ends up feeling, like a good old fashioned weekend at the beach. In fact, it has me even more excited for our long holiday weekend at home on the lake. Long summer days of boating and warm nights making s’mores over a bonfire are calling my name…
I realized after the fact that this palette is pretty similar to this one. I guess I must really love this color combination, huh?
