Color of the month

Designing With Amethyst

Want to add a pop of purple in your life? Here are some ideas for designing with amethyst that you will absolutely love!

It is time for our color of the month!!! October is the perfect month to highlight the color Amethyst! Not only does an amethyst stone act as a beautiful soothing gem stone, but the color itself can have the same effect in a home. While the gem can take many tones, I chose to focus on the lavender hue, which is complimented nicely by neutrals and warm woods.  So let’s take a look at some of my favorite ways to accent with the color of the month.

Purple on the walls ? It sounds daring, but look how great it can turn out! If the combination of a colored wall and floor scare you, opt to do one of the other.

If in a bedroom keep it bright and airy with some velvet amethyst pillows the velvet keeps the violet hue subdued for a dreamy look.

I love the idea of a neutral, rustic home having a pop of color and amethyst is soft enough to flatter woods and grays. Think of combing it with warm wood furnishings.
