Rhymes with Orange?

Posted by toniayis under Uncategorized

The color orange, a blend of red and yellow, combines the energy of red with the happiness of yellow and is said to be associated with joy, sunshine and the tropics. Humans find orange to be a very hot color which actually gives the sensation of heat and the color orange is said to both increase oxygen supply to the brain and produce an invigorating effect; the color orange is widely accepted by young people. Orange — are you wondering why you don’t have more orange in your home? Seriously, a splash of orange can add energy to any room – why not serve up some orange bedding or orange pillows to make the bedroom pop.

Orange bedding may sound a bit strange but if you’ve looked at any home decor magazines or TV shows lately you’ll know that orange has become a decorating trend. Pink and orange bedding for girls is a very modern look and you’ll find orange and green or orange and brown prints to be very popular colorways for nursery décor. Themes like tropical punch, passion flower and tropical vacation all inspire the use of orange in home décor and orange as a vibrant accent color is evident in décor styles ranging from contemporary to classic.

To look for ways to add the color orange to any room, browse online at places like Bed Bath & Beyond – they have some exciting orange bedding selections including a Valencia comforter set by Amy Butler and a Tommy Bahama Orange Cay collection that will transform your bedroom into a tropical retreat. Tropical themes are a very popular way to update the look of a bedroom, perhaps because they reinforce the idea that your bedroom is an oasis in which to relax and rejuvenate and a tropical theme can incorporate the very properties orange is known for. Get invigorated and add some orange punch to your decor.
