Fun!!!
this room is amazing! the colors are fun, fresh, and yet really calming. it looks super inviting. and i love how you hung all the pez dispensers in the hallway! that is sooooo cool! if you don't mind me asking, where did you get the couch and love seat? they look exactly like what i'm looking for...
thanks! and great room!
Love the red chair and ottoman.
thanks for sharing.
I like this and I like the fact that you used turquoise in an intense shade and mated it to the dark blue and the red. Love that vintage red chair and matching ottoman, it works great with the turquoise and the green also works with the blue and blue and green can make a nice color combo even though I'm not much of a green person as a decor color.
Nice job!
Loving the colors a ton! The display of pez dispensers is pretty sweet too (I used to inadvertently collect pez...) Overall, a very fun space (they got my thumbs up!)

Simply awesome.
Well done. Thanks for sharing!
This is the reverse of my dining room (red walls, white trim, turquoise linens) and it still makes me happy 4 years later. I usually swap out seasonally, but I'm now excited to introduce some navy or blue-gray into the mix.
Thanks for the inspiration!
