You know how in each month in the BHG magazine they have a collection of paint colors? I was trying to find a picture from the magazine they have put together for in the Sept 2012 magazine.

It's awesome...fern green, dark brown, a dusty pink, a turqoiose and a muddy red...

I LOVE the color pallette they have but wouldnt even know how to attempt it.

Here is a link to the color pallete but you have to see the picture in the magazine with the objects and fabric they show with the paint colors.

Use them in the concentration they show on that page. Biggest color: green. Maybe the sofa, accent wall, bedding, etc. Red as the rug or artwork. Brown and blue as your accents in the room with a touch of the pink as pillows, vases, etc.

Jackie-I was thinking the same thing, that I already have most of those colors in my space.

I just LOVE those mix of colors. I have that page up on my fridge and just smile when I look at it.

I sold that one Kim Parker picture I had but there are other peices by Kim Parker that would work in that color scheme.

I know there isn't much of that fabric and you might not be able to see it very well, but I was tyring to identify it if anyone thinks it looks familiar.
