Why a Neutral Background Can Work For You

With neutral walls, curtains and furniture, you can change your color scheme whenever you like.  Isn’t this a pretty Roman shade 
 by Anna French (love the scalloped edge)?  Pale pink tulips  would be nice here too…lots of colors would work.
Or navy blue pillows on this sofa (photo also by Anna French).
We have a mostly neutral background in our Newport Beach home…so that when we move back, I can use whatever colors I am in the mood for!  See those chairs?
I recently changed things up to have blue and white in our dining room here in San Francisco.  It used to be coral and black.
My new client, Jennifer in Southern California has a neutral setting.  I was there recently to discuss paint colors and while I was visiting…I played with her existing accessories (fun, Jennifer!).
We brought in a chair and ottoman from a different room and styled her mantel and coffee table.
Neutrals make it easy to switch things up with accessories… In fact, I have a couple of clients coming up where you will see this very thing!
Here is my coffee table (neutral for the moment).  I’m enjoying lots of white for the summer.
Chief is totally back in action…playing with his buds.  Hey, these dogs are sort of in neutral colors (if caramel is a neutral), aren’t they?  Perfect for most decors!
