Daily Vase Archives

Just a few from the past featuring yellow and orange flowers in teapots.

Please check out the beautiful pieces created in our Color Study Series: 1.Yellow and Orange

First up: #1. YellowandOrange

Nothing like a hot summer afternoon to set the mood to share the sunny colors used in our first Color Theory Series Workshop:

#1. YellowandOrange.

This awesome group of arrangements shows the variations possible using the warmest colors in the color wheel. These are analogous colors (fancy name for side by side neighbors on the color wheel).

What a fun group! Where did the time go??

I received an email from Pottery Barn this week issuing a decree that yellow is the trend color of fall. It was also the trend color of spring 2019, in case you missed the memo. I did!

In the spring the yellow hues were pure and saturated. The fall brings a palette of light yellows tinted with white or brown. You can see examples of both spring and fall Yellow and Oranges in this beautiful work, but the seasonal flowers tell us that it is SUMMER.
