Unlocking the missing (colorful) ingredient in your home
We're big believers that the things we bring into our homes have the power to spark emotions (good and bad!)
We all know that feeling when you look around your home and feel a bit uninspired or like your space is missing that je ne sais quoi. When it comes to styling homes, we're big believers in using color to bring good vibes — the right color can really set the mood and change the energy of a room.
When you're feeling stuck, a great way to get started is to ask yourself, 'What is my home missing?' or 'How do I want my home to make me feel?' While your first thought might be that you're missing a cleaning fairy (aren't we all?!), perhaps there's a certain ingredient you've been wanting to add, but haven't quite known where to start. Let's begin by talking about our feelings…
my home needs more: calm
If your home (or life!) has started to feel a bit overwhelming, a dose of nature is always a good idea. Olive and Ocean can help bring a little slice of serenity. Olive's deep earthy green conjures the same feeling we get when we actually stop to appreciate the beauty of a tree, while Ocean is the kind of soft blue that instantly transports us to calming walks on the beach. We'll take one of each, thanks!

my home needs more: creativity
The phrase 'dopamine decor' could not be more accurate when it comes to Berry and Mustard. Bright and bold, these two are guaranteed to spark joy and get you out of that creative funk, pop them together or add them to a neutral space that'll inspire you at every passing glance. More dopamine equals more creativity!

my home needs more: color
One of the things we love about Poppy and Lilac is that they're not what you'd typically picture when thinking about a colorful home. Poppy is not your average red — she's iconic in her own right but looks stunning with so many other colors, including Lilac. Our perfect dusky purple is a more subtle option for anyone dipping their toe into the world of color. A colorful life is a happy life!

my home needs more: cohesiveness
It's giving 'put together,' even when you might not be feeling that way! Our two perfect pastels, Blush and Sage, work beautifully when paired with neutrals, soft natural textures or timbers. These soft shades are colors you can highlight throughout your home, adding matching tones with cushions, bed linen and decor. They're our go-to for creating a cohesive, put-together look that feels just right.

my home needs more: confidence
Navy brings depth, character and the perfect level of intensity — she's a strong, confident choice. Similarly, Butter is our fresh take on a timeless classic that is really having a moment — it's bound to spark conversation and shows visitors that when it comes to your home, you know what you're doing!

While we still believe there aren't any hard or fast rules for choosing from the Mustard rainbow, thinking about the feeling you want to create might be the key to unlocking the missing (colorful) ingredient. It's science, baby!
