Simple bedding pops with colorful pillows in different textures. A sleek partition wall in a neutral shade keeps the bed space separate from the rest of the room.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgwxuX6qJHiWZBtlb5rPgh5odS4P2s1K0KOM_mnQyrCaI0Nvdsuyg3IQK5v3V1LkgDrT2RFlp1Yh4KGm-SX1ijw4h1IPBQb2fTAAWszjPZWYMjlDqCTNwJQhr7qly-8e_2_qBZi1T9A/s640/Contemporary-Bedrooms-decorating-ideas-2012-8.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Pillow Talk</span> </b></span></div><br />In this room, contemporary furnishings mix with timeworn artwork. On the bed, a plethora of pillows and a down comforter bring comfy contrast to the bed's sharp edges. Above the headboard, a ledge allows for a unique display of artwork.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiesVAsElHm4I3ezNH3RieBM5Xi09eCq7XBawwPqFAWG5yrb6c8P9tBz4NC1nslz6sabUM_jMALlf_bkZ5dq7oALUzkYGLSExp74kC3MNBFRh4z0sCZwYlWbvn39ni_crQxLif5A5SN/s640/Contemporary-Bedrooms-decorating-ideas-2012-7.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Calming Retreat</span> </b></span></div><br />Contemporary doesn't have to be bold. For a pared-down modern look like this, choose furniture pieces with simple lines and neutral colors. Unique lamps on the bedside tables provide additional modern flair.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="600" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiy3scmlVstAoPDgpRIOz6JSAyKIjdhCmci-_zaEn5PcPmb2wf9Fu72TUc5q44BastEeeb23lee-bcw63LBPZwFtuiMLrEVVAEZKZ2wt98HaBgs9iC9DfHAM5AwpSR5sHZ_CeBlCFmT/s640/Contemporary-Bedrooms-decorating-ideas-2012-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Class and Comfort</span> </b></span></div><br />In this pleasantly unassuming master suite, beige tones are offset with rich wood and bold blue pillows, while a mahogany divider grounds the bed and partitions off the sitting room.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEirGlftQYZfvtwmHprs7fD_fAO9WNwE4FA7OtFDgbPZHn7OXBRPVoP_0InpgfEgNv9RaCc0t3uB4TbyTL5JVvsn_jK8fXT_wPK4SDPyqq2N0jYd5JvHzOXGc7dDaE2O9ddVMDjD9qgT/s640/Contemporary-Bedrooms-decorating-ideas-2012-3.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Modern Canopy</span> </b></span></div><br />This contemporary bedroom gets a shot of personality and interest from a repeating pattern of boxes and squares. Wall niches, built-in bookshelves, and a metal canopy bed each include geometric shapes. Canopy draperies are made of striped fabric hung from tabs.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjHCJMbk_uCBYxz3XnpNfL-RTB3tfVN9UchXJeSojJmyPKhEv2i5aqIj-3nTicDI9AYCzcLvEMq-4aHQIj-17uurGB-RP0DTuTiMHj0Vzmue-ypG38UxgtPUSzvydUPdtkRcWr2dXn6/s640/Contemporary-Bedrooms-decorating-ideas-2012.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><br /><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Wall of Windows</span> </b></span></div><br />A wall of draperies calls attention to the focal-point bed with an extra-high headboard, plump pillows, and striking geometric throw. Nearby, matching contemporary lamps sit atop similar, yet different, night tables in dark wood.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjA0VwkGtQvAzYgezsDZ4GuctIgRU-unn892sDlgUJfZJidUF2jvFc7yHMAFVl_WnmvLNcP3aL0BI9DAU-0BcDPc7ImflGxRX9McmxR4nyijWyKb28dDK-rkxmGX512Ck8_lzlNdL61/s640/Contemporary-Bedrooms-decorating-ideas-2012-2.jpg" width="454" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Twist of Lime</span> </b></span></div><br />Dark chocolate walls outlined with white moldings reinforce the geometry of the furnishings. A rectangular bed, striped bedding, squared-off nightstands, and angular lampshades are offset only by a handful of rounded elements.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjejnEv5M_GvwaeH-VTp3-qg3_PsjXKdM0BHdu-1x2QtsGqB5eRk0JtLoCyq3f2hVyqKn-de9pRHnn6QevJMnAZDOhToSkgn50y_lVjb2Cv_Cq07EnvDugCTFyDbEvikBDhAsIUS8jU/s640/Contemporary-Bedrooms-decorating-ideas-2012-4.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Brown Beauty</span></b></span></div><br />Dark walls make all the difference in this contemporary space. White feminine bedding is offset by lime green fabric accents throughout the rest of the room. A built-in bookshelf displays modern accessories and hides personal belongings. A retro-inspired chair in front of the window completes the look.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiTHHZuEnb5vHC2upj5AoFmHNtEgOvaGVpmSVYSZC9ATRs6a1ukA5RNg69p4Qe1GPMaBCxsyQA9qjxm0lJai3FdPvP2_pmVSg1tGaJ6V-Pwj9tY0y-aLg-V-7BpIiJblGcI_-iXV0Ma/s640/Contemporary-Bedrooms-decorating-ideas-2012-5.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Color Coordination</span></b></span></div><br />Contemporary style is a display of beautiful contrasts in both texture and color. This room focuses both on bold color and the basics of line, shape, and form that are signature to contemporary design.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiB_Sj8s59utYWBzRpqhehL9yNbfT90vya023PjQBH3mN-MclUTQJaD6xndez_cw_jbp2rh-w2e3Qa1DICj65417j07uh6ZPvJTXIcZTOXwTvjUtX-52h3_zQRLiM94fP0Ls8qIVQs7/s640/Contemporary-Bedrooms-decorating-ideas-2012-9.jpg" width="480" /></div><br /><div style="color: orange; text-align: center;"><span style="font-size: large;"><b><span class="heading2">Black and White All Over</span></b></span></div><br />Black and white is a popular contemporary decorating trend. This black-and-white duo is both flirty and sophisticated. Two floor-length mirrors complement the black wood-framed bed and highlight two glass chandeliers. Above the bed, three floating shelves allow for space to display photographs or other favorite accessories.

Headboards You Can Make 2012 ideas

Bearing a pretty silhouette, gorgeous fabric, intricate details, or all three, a headboard adds a certain flourish to your bedroom. Whether you make your own or purchase a piece, introducing a headboard to your bedroom is an instant update guaranteed to wow. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgdXOOt4lNtvYb9bALzuKsAnOz3gkTJ9MSlvkEokv8Kq5HIkg_Jcp7Vyo8f9QzLT6W03JcaNLbTsFtTsrAJuFZKGV8gk0SXVzYto1pZUYyIaa2CXvTGl8-ZKBNi_regjX9Mn1z4df2D/s640/Headboard-2012-Ideas-10.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><b>Window of Opportunity</b></span></div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: left;">Create an elegant headboard like this one by spraying two shutters with two coats of primer and 2 coats of metallic paint, then finishing with two coats of sealant. Allow the shutters to dry between coats. Measure the inside of each panel and cut fabric to fit each opening, adding 1/2 inch on all sides. Place batting inside the panel to cover the entire area. Cover with a piece of fabric and attach to batting along the edges with hot glue. Secure the corners and along the top with a staple gun. Use ribbon as a trim to finish. Repeat for each panel.</div><div style="text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjWHgc-EfwqQHmToGqIXd-Z_eoRKtqIoLj9JfraMlUd1r3nxCBAb_wz7NQsfPxlchXNC1c2qW-Warms0md1mYj5M8MBiNxdIq27lmRmE6hs17rLsnXitYNOTJL48ufgMe8UwjQcN3ic/s640/Headboard-2012-Ideas-9.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><b>Tall Order</b></span></div><br />Create a custom headboard that rises to the occasion by covering an inexpensive artist's canvas with fabric. Just pull the fabric tightly across the frame and secure with a staple gun. Then prop the canvas behind your bed no power tools required. When it's time to change out your bedding, simply re-cover the canvas with new coordinating fabric for a fresh look .<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEio2UynK14f0oiq3dfg5beqfMlR3HFcIUvoU_zFLAcgvdeYsai_SZtVGtsnqKrhky5mEQjxQSngCKUMDDGg_Z2ZsleVK5pvhs91RLTVyvLAo75dlLqdZfRGvm_Hkr56pAMZ-wvxiqtS/s640/Headboard-2012-Ideas-8.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><b>Frame It</b></span></div><br />Inexpensive photo frames can be found at garage sales or thrift shops and make a magnificent headboard. Remove the glass from the frames and cut batting the same size as the frame back. Cut fabric to size, adding 3 inches on each side. Lay the batting on the frame back and cover it with the fabric, wrapping excess over the back. Pull taut and fasten with duct tape. Insert the back into the frame. Hang three frames side by side for a picture-perfect headboard<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEheAjSSVyNhHIo_D6JiQWLp05f-hc98FqdnjJb7oh-w_jdv9c7ohvKcdf61DkSk7L34dAmP0bifw11ID-szdWjug0RAb9Gn-Rl1oR_mj354UxURIAYVpArju6-yubUj9ougktJpHMX3/s640/Headboard-2012-Ideas-7.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><b>Re-treated & Refreshed</b></span></div><br />Revamp an old wooden headboard with a new treatment. Try sanding off the existing stain and refinishing the headboard with a glaze or whitewash.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhChMP_ixi91suKapKFD1A7mIkQ0CM6MaTFBgGU9EE9pqIwsU6hHflVv8Yw8qhbhZ38hrF9-CiVimnlyzWBbKCaC_wZ0xf0TxLgmRuMg8Iy3lPbmyIJHJOw9gN-hHljUNpa14WUu6hT/s640/Headboard-2012-Ideas-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><b>Modern & Fun</b></span></div><br />Give old closet doors a new purpose as a headboard. Two closet doors mounted on the wall behind the bed create a sleek focal point in this midcentury-modern bedroom. Plus, the tall headboard gives the room a sense of height.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjvJsA69V_n1gdNh4_dsc0CUC6kVB2NMwMFnblHBBOqf8jcG8fEDoTtjnftQzeA_fr5WjvNe7Dzeev83lUvNkZShw22xuOw8RINZujTNqf-7P3MsbSG_u5etxa7LrKUmQuAJic564M2/s640/Headboard-2012-Ideas-5.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><b>Home Center Headboard</b></span></div><ol class="numberList">For less than $100, you can make a headboard out of basics from your local home center. On a piece of medium-density fiberboard (MDF), draw a design that's as wide as the mattress and about 40 inches tall; cut out. Use wood glue to cover the MDF with a piece of beaded board cut into the same shape. Glue strips of veneer over the rough edges. Glue or screw trim to the top edge and a finial in the cutout. Paint the entire piece. When dry, mount the headboard to the wall with 1 1/2-inch spacers</ol><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEizPjcQdGs1y-7HGIoAxCDBhMoURtlGRxLwqAWlvGVQh7l_hGRFd38PdQM-O5_uT9ohZNCc8MoCrBCFZpSdBiQD196l4D9hGlzDMknGscaZ4TPUnrwgxxWGikEN3XBAMPqa-iIRsGz7/s640/Headboard-2012-Ideas-4.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><b>Wallpapered Headboard</b></span></div><br />Scout out a large picture frame from a flea market or secondhand shop and repurpose it as a headboard. Paint the frame to match your decor. Cut a wallpaper piece to fit inside the frame. Apply the paper to the frame backing following the manufacturer's instructions.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj4tMFsTVcgJoJAXvxZd5jyqObYmUfh-sa5lXKwEWzWv8z6isnyNvv_aWUAg9e6tKq0_6xPwZpoc5KrjaOLoMMz8-WH8FomCgR0uBG-cZjcXu36VeSqzc37KAyZag3-skJCw8m9aE6Z/s640/Headboard-2012-Ideas-3.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><b>Framed Fabric Headboard</b></span></div><br />Spice up a bedroom by creating a framed headboard from a graphic print. Stretch the fabric over heavy cardboard or foam-core board and secure on the back. Insert the panels into two inexpensive poster frames spray-painted a coordinating color.<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEillt4tpCJVY85C8cKF5cv-Bh4cJ2QK5NU4N1eL4kqEz740Jq72V7zGGlwspZTzDBhgObWZhhMz9ZuGbKWo5xWmGH_KdKl2sgYaTtcn4MphDm4ZszilDCk4W-9sHEPz-CpQabnEl1Cf/s640/Headboard-2012-Ideas-2.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><b>Storage Headboard</b></span></div><br />Create a one-of-a-kind headboard with built-in storage using old dresser drawers. Search salvage shops and secondhand stores for cast-off drawers and old dressers. Plan your layout on the floor, using fillers (such as storage cubes) and leaving spaces where the wall can show through. Once you've perfected your design, secure the pieces together with screws. (We also cut plywood doors to fit a few openings and secured them with hinges.) To embellish your headboard, give it a few coats of paint and wallpaper the drawer backs and doors. Hang the headboard on the wall using a few 1x4-inch cleats<br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhntNrYEyLx6Eim9QPyxtJoS-_GQw4wtxmV29HdfV5573vVLE4FWyb2Gaqf2uxqFVEyfJj28BCk2C0IOI7tbWcj-5pqmpJ7rG1GitBtyv-ie0sGPzV2M9omvFBiD5b4UKsozr0pWYuj/s640/Headboard-2012-Ideas.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><br /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: large;"><b>Vintage Headboard</b></span></div><br />Add a vintage country look to your bedroom with a feed-sack-covered headboard. A large feed sack provides enough fabric to cover a twin-size headboard. Staple two layers of batting over the front side of a piece of plywood, and then staple the feed sack on top of the batting. Pull the fabric taut as you add staples to the center of each side and then as you work your way to the corners. For a stunning finish, nail a piece of architectural salvage to the top of the upholstered headboard.

Fresh Christmas Colors 2012 Ideas from HGTV

Try something new this season! Decorate your home with haute holiday hues that are anything but conventional.<br /><br /><span style="color: orange;"> <b>By : </b>Brian Patrick Flynn </span><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: left;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEh5mbCfHi9Yt4vaE5HTobJb1NcQ3cheaLghxBj1eSMzMHD7f_1t-v0Rm52K2etz4t49zqZrYw5eBMj4tghWMlhskRWR5j2AF3Ryjde6RdzZNgbfuJLOIh3qlP5YLCrixh2VjwIBpJ5WJ-IZ/s640/Fresh-Christmas-Colors-2012-Ideas-12.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b style="color: orange; font-size: xx-large;">Kelly Green + Baby Blue + White </b></div><div style="text-align: center;">While kelly green is often paired with red for holiday flair, it works surprisingly well in a seasonal sense when paired with baby blue and white. The key to successfully using this color combination is the proper balance of white. With a strong white backdrop, such as a white tree or tablecloth, the color scheme often seen on beach blankets and sailboats can take on a wintry appearance.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgAvgldsaQEmC5xpKbIJvUs4swr15Oqq3ppYGwJ6kpoGB9hbS0HkTa6sYUtvTRrlBvmUkEsfSBMYIfxF1nPKW287pjXZQKId-Ykj_QPA3LcTKp_joTOhgDFsLA1H5f-LJgPhzNDVwn8xbpS/s640/Fresh-Christmas-Colors-2012-Ideas-11.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><b><span style="color: orange; font-size: x-large;">Green + Brown </span></b></div><div style="text-align: center;">Colors seen together in nature always work well in decorating, so don't be afraid to take a cue from Mother Nature. This is especially true when pairing brown and green, two of the most-popular earth tones used in home decor. For sophisticated simplicity, try decorating a green tree using only brown ornaments. Consider using several different shades of green for a layered, multi-toned look when decorating walls and hallways.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjFxBeYTIsbTwbS5hNy_5hIAavkmVnfIWzHZkF17OwurnKOIxevXTNTE8229-QNHMyWyHsLBC6Peayzftmd7Xe9RcfOkJEzaKeLXo5M70RtnEG6Tj2v4vgyAze9RRkXN-Mklo6NV9A2WQJ1/s640/Fresh-Christmas-Colors-2012-Ideas-10.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: x-large;"><b>Violet + Brown + Bronze + White </b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;">Make it masculine! A color combination of violet, brown, bronze and white is a great way to add manly appeal to your home this holiday season. For proper balance, stick with brown and bronze as the dominant colors, with sprinkles of violet for accent, and set it all against a white tree.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjCWc3T3mqKl7aglWYuLLbxBJ7KMZgVPCA-euezRkvTFfwNmfn4uofDZBRSlElXSsI70DlTcwYZEO9FBB_cI9tJjIi1c0aUBiqs1N4lTXiEvyiTrcdtVaZAvba6qoodbEPLja9Nd9j-izs7/s640/Fresh-Christmas-Colors-2012-Ideas-9.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: x-large;"><b>White + Brown </b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;">White and brown is simple, elegant and gender neutral. This combination is also incredibly versatile; add a few accents of blue or red to make it masculine, or add pink for a feminine touch.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEjJAKQPlgZo7CA4sF6VNpdDtr2Yvvr2pHOYjIu2kFxPvG_DW4K0IMo2uY5WrF3z7udWoaelt_YgjTcuxfCCt_slSq6cOjynmIkC3_6uncUHpk77422kNv8ijRNzXzMjVHdE6jvxVrug8bC9/s640/Fresh-Christmas-Colors-2012-Ideas-8.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: x-large;"><b>Hot Pink + Lime Green + White + Red </b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;">During the past few years, hot pink has become a haute hue for modernist holiday decor and is often paired with silver or gold. To add a little more Yuletide pop, pair hot pink with lime green, red and white.</div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiU87q-bBM2fdx6MWpR3XWX3O92pKV7LCyQd5vD83DrhzpEEPGiBJ6i32NskyA4O1EisBv5gNxzeleX3jW7RH8LNt0CcFRT2SfqAFmj7lnStUOsb4IZaLRklRdemGihvGxTo_LmK4gk4uDW/s640/Fresh-Christmas-Colors-2012-Ideas-7.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: x-large;"><b>Turquoise + White + Parchment </b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;">Beige as an accent color? Yep! While turquoise is often paired with jewel tones and metallics in holiday decor, pairing the jewel tone with a muted, neutral tone such as parchment is much less expected. </div><div style="text-align: center;">This is an excellent way for colorphobes to introduce more saturated hues into their holiday decor without being overwhelmed. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEiGaZRJ2rOGndZsLBJJByLiPE-lRW3zcFzomfGsoNWU4ASaH1J-elb6w9lsX8nt91PSa8z0Yvsc676A9yT0g7oxfWOK6_ibuXjCAMu_5urAsSJM1afY8o6dn8FODihcUUfmT0kdC-U2OX-0/s640/Fresh-Christmas-Colors-2012-Ideas-6.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: x-large;"><b>White + Gold </b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;">Since the days when frankincense and myrrh were acceptable holiday gifts, gold has been commonly paired with silver and/or violet. To put a contemporary spin on this classic color, consider pairing gold with white. The juxtaposition of gold's warm undertones and white's coolness strikes the perfect balance.</div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEhnLzuNPGWqKvxMDw_oR6uipEVOZwSE6PlhDoPf_Zv3GGQ5j476DvNyfjT3mxsScbdAJ4MgOvVRjlQotjxwjKzv9UYSoinRk1UB29gRVTYmDd8c31UG2gJvAipHoq1JnfGsOmwrNtPGKlis/s640/Fresh-Christmas-Colors-2012-Ideas-5.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: x-large;"><b>Bubblegum Pink + Purple </b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;">Bubblegum can be used for something other than a dentist's worst nightmare of a stocking stuffer. </div><div style="text-align: center;">Lovers of retro and kitsch can put a regal spin on the nostalgic 1950s tone by using bubblegum pink as the dominant color toned down with the dark richness of purple. </div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><img border="0" height="640" src="https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEgLjQPPolDi8ulCiBGEGlTXQ3S20xVinXLXlQLEZLYGKJ8HgH2hdoBLGfl4syKhqpG6bAXJRAUYb_UfE4onjFVP9iKZCJzb04WmBueIh4aFFltjs9xk-J6GFQyGOmupp1uuNQpzwCyW3aHS/s640/Fresh-Christmas-Colors-2012-Ideas-4.jpg" width="480" /></div><div style="text-align: center;"><span style="color: orange; font-size: x-large;"><b>Robin's-Egg Blue + Red + White </b></span></div><div style="text-align: center;">Midcentury modernists can add vintage flair this holiday season with a color scheme of robin's-egg blue, red and white.
