Thanksgiving Tablescape

Happy two days till Thanksgiving! I'm celebrating with a bright tablescape. The color scheme here is chocolate brown, mikaido yellow, bright white, and terra cotta red. To create warmth in the area, I scattered tea lamps for a soft glow, and branches with beautiful fall foliage to bring the outdoors in. A few trees in the backyard have gorgeous fall colors, and one of them is seen perfectly through the window and makesfor a colorful background.

Color: Aquamarine

It's been a while since my last post. Life has been very hectic and I've had barely any time to post. But, I am back now with a few pictures of one of my favorite colors - casual and beachy blue that can also look classy and elegant like in the dining room below with the blue-glass Murano chandelier and blue leather chairs. 
The aquamarine upholstered bench at the foot of the bed brings in a bright note to the calm, white bedroom.
