Yellow is one color I would have never dreamed of ever decorating with. Conjures up memories of my dad’s 70’s style kitchen with gold/yellow formica countertops. In fact, I’m not quite that fond of the color by itself. Pair it with some black or gray and now it’s all over my house.

Promise found this cabinet at Savers for $80.00! I’m loving her addition of the gray stripes and spray painted pink horse !

I’m desperately looking for the fabric used on the window shade. Gold star for the person who comes up with the source?

Hey there! I’m Michelle; I’m an Passionate DIY’er and in constant pursuit of how to bring beauty to my house full of men (3 boys + 1 hubby). Stick around and see what I’ve got up my hard-working sleaves!
Gorgeous pics ! I don’t recognize the fabric, sorry. Darn, no gold star for me !
The fabric reminds me of a line that ikea has. I’m not sure if it’s the exact same, but they use that color scheme. You can see their fabrics online but have to buy them from in store.
I’m not crazy about yellow in anything but I did paint my upstairs bathroom yellow with blue accents and it seems to work.
So true. Im not a yellow person at all but Ive been drawn to yellow and gray all year. I didn’t want to put a drop of yellow in my house until I was sure I wouldn’t find it hideous in a short period of time but I think its offcial now. Im a fan.
That low credenza feature on LGN is divine. I have been thinking about it ever since then!
Love the color scheme! I think the fabric is either Ikea or Designer’s Guild…
I just love yellow accents. Those lamps can come home with me anytime!
I love yellow, black, white and gray all mixed up together! Yummmyy!
you get the gold star for showing that it looks great. you should have won that contest for your room…but thats just lil ole me. i want to see relatable stuff..things i can do and afford. i honestly cant relate to people spending yearly salaries on a room…thanks for all you do.
I was on a yellow kick when I first decorated my current house. But yellow with reds and all the wrong colors. Phasing it out but after seeing your photos it can work with the right colors. That first room is very fun for a beach house.
I was the same way until last year then all of a sudden I wanted everything yellow and I’m still loving it.
love it! especially the last one!
Ouch, that hurt.
(I always thought it was quite prutty)
P. S. Wait’ll you see what I’m doing to the duplex.
I’m not usually a fan of yellow, but these pics are beautiful!!!
I tagged you for a Kreativ Blog award, just check out my blog for the details.
This is so funny because I just painted over every inch of yellow in my house.

I love that zig zag stationery! And the Jimenez house in Palm Springs is definitely up there on my all-time favorite list (and it’s ALL yellow and black).
I love yellow (bright yellow)! I have pops of yellow in my living room – I’m even my making yellow pillow covers soon
i love the scheme too…
i especially love the lamps in the post below. i my, i would love some of those. i will buy them from you for $50! i wish i had your eye when it comes to renovating and making old things new. you see this is part of my thorn in my side. i try and try to do cool stuff and gregg just makes fun and well it honestly doesn’t look good – two projects gone bad cost $125! YIKES I should have just bought it from the start!
what a lovely surprise to scroll down and see my stationery. thanks for including it. i too was not a big fan of yellow. but i love it with grey. pam
Wow! Love your look. Nice blend of styles, great color too. Enjoyed this visit.
