Still Love the Chocolate and Tiffany Blue Combo?
We do to! This color combination first came onto the market more than 10 years ago and is still going strong. Many analysts are shocked that this color scheme is still so popular, most color schemes go in and out of style every few years and the color blue seems to have the shortest shelf life. So to have a pair of colors last so long is wonderful. If you happened to have jumped on the band wagon and brought these colors into your home or are ready to start bringing these colors home, here are a few quick tips to reviving your home and making it seem new and fresh again.
The newest trend with the chocolate and blue combo is to add a pop of color. Throw a bright citrus, like orange or yellow into the mix and you will be amazed at the fresh new look it will give. Another idea is to add more color but in the same family. Use three types of blue that have the same tone but vary from dark to light. And last but not least mix patterns. Don’t feel locked into what you already have, be adventurous and add some throw pillows with a pattern or change out your drapes with a bold print that has similar colors as to what is already being used.
