Easter 2017



There is something about Spring, Easter, new life, optimism , spring cleaning, an energy. I always feel I have loads of ideas. You watch nature burst into life and colour. It seems there's lots of yellows with daffodils, crocuses, primroses even dandy lions which waken us up and cheers us. However it's good to notice in particular all the gorgeous pastel hues too. At the moment that lovely rose gold pink if the Apple iphone. It's a colour I haven't really used that much. It's neither peach nor pink. 



I love the blossom on the trees, there are so many shades and all the different colours as the buds burst into life. 


I have just finished a Fab wedding in the most beautiful peachy blossom colour with blossom flowers cascading  onto the train. Here's a glimpse at the detail but I reckon the official photos will be worth waiting for.



While all the girls had the peachy pink so like our rose gold in the iphone, the brides Mum had a navy lace over the shade. The boys wore matching ties with navy suits. However I have just done my window in work and I have mixed the soft coral shade with green. I have these two everywhere at home and in work at the moment.



 I have always loved green & so often at this time of year it's a spring green but let's not ignore the softer shade of green. Mint, such a lovely shade to incorporate it into our homes & wear it. With a hue that beautiful you can mix it with other colours so cleverly.



Colour it so sets a theme!! The time of Year, the mood, your style & your taste. 
Possibly the easiest way to incorporate a colour scheme into any wedding is with the fashion. So picking your bridesmaids colour should it be rose gold, it is important. 


However it doesn't stop there, remember that the mint colour is a class colour for the grooms to don as a complimentary or matching tone. You don't have to put everyone in the same shade. The soft green or an eau de nil shade looks incredible and perfect amongst the natural surroundings. So give it a thought. 


Here's another trend. At last it is no longer expected for brides to wear white dresses either, and more and more we are seeing beautiful coloured dresses 



but if you’re not quite brave enough to wear a coloured frock, there’s nothing to stop you from popping a pair of coloured shoes on your toes and rose gold or mint are a lovely inspiration for you.

It doesn't stop there, it turns out that mint green is actually in a plethora of succulents, foliage and proteas that would look beautiful amongst your fashion and decor. You only have to look at the inspiration board below to be enlightened.
