You've heard of the winter blues right? Well today we're talking about the Fall blues...and it has nothing to do with being sad or unmotivated or lacking in energy. In fact, blue works beautifully for Fall decor. It's no secret that blue is my absolute favorite color and I use it in big and small doses throughout my home.

For years, I felt that decorating for Fall meant that I needed to use orange, rust, green and brown. Those colors are fine, but they don't make my soul sing! A few years ago I ditched all the rules about what decorating for fall Should look like...and I just did my own thing!

The result is a home that feels unique. I challenged myself to bring in a little orange this year, because blue and orange are actually complementary colors on the color wheel...I didn't actually know that (I just looked it up!). There is something that feels so fresh about combining these colors...and I find I enjoy orange a lot more when I've paired it with blue!
