Color Me Tuesday - The Mellow Yellow Edition

Hi Everyone! Tuesdays are sort of "meh" - don't you think? They're not as hated as Mondays, not as hopeful as Wednesdays, not as close to Friday as Thursdays, and definitely not as exciting as a Friday/Saturday/Sunday.  Recognizing Tuesday as a total void, Megan and I have decided to spice them up with yet another new featurette - "Color Me Tuesdays!"  We'll be curating our favorites in a specific color each week, hopefully featuring some of our favorite party-related items/ideas...enough typing, on to pictures!

Yes, I exalt at the Temple of Martha - I love everything about this, the vintage French tulip vase, the glorious feathery parrot tulips, and the way the purples and yellows play off one another.  Right now, this flower arrangment is the centerpiece of my yellow life. Now, what to go with these flowers?

  • Delicious lemon meringue cookies from Joy the Baker
  • A very sun-like yellow-orange blown glass ornament - great for decoration or as a lovely hostess gift from Paradise Art Glass
  • Some orange placemats - an easy way to bring a color theme in without having to redecorate your entire house - from Too Cute Custom Crafts - or you could try making your own? I smell a DIY!!!
  • A super cute apron from Anthropologie
And that's your yellow Tuesday!

  1. hey! ok i love yellow. and i love this post. i want to theme my life yellow. can you suggest some things? i'm moving in a week and i'd like to make my living space simple, clean, and yellow. i'm poor and crafty (increasingly so in my old age) and have access to cool old things that have been hanging around in people's attics since katrina. i know that's a lot to work with but... :)
