Bold Color Combo: Red & Aqua

Blue and red Martha.jpg
Just like Martha did for a wedding pallet, pair these two powerful colors together and you'll get dramatic results...

We love Heidi’s kitchen in Capitol Hill. In a moment of inspiration she painted her wall a bright aqua blue, and a friend gave her the red clock. The unconventional pairing worked so well, she just kept adding to it.

Love, love, love this color combo. I'd go a little paler on the aqua is all.

gorgeous color combo. the aqua tones down the harshness of the red, without killing the 'wow' factor.
