I'm SMILING because I designed an entire fall tablescape last year without the use of RED or ORANGE. I don't know why but I just struggle with the boldness of those colors. I thrive in neutrals, I adore pastels... red just seems so "loud" and with 7 kids at home, I need to "turn it down" a bit with style. Im still searching for the fall inspiration piece and while Im doing that, I'll take a survey. Are there any colors or themes in fall that you just can't do ? I'll go first...
