mellow yellow

A nearby mellow yellow home I adore in Hastings-on-Hudson.
A cupboard full of egg yolk yellow crockery at a shop I like to browse.
Yellow tulips on the mantle.
Simple sunny cirlces and yellow napkins make a table look mellow yet springy.
What color are you spotting now?

    For some reason, I'm thinking of turquoise - perhaps because I'm in need of a beach vacation! Waiting for the yellow to pop up in the yard in the shape of sunny daffodils...
    xxoo

    Green... the grass is finally that brand-new-spring green color and I couldn't be happier.

    Good morning sunshine!
    This is the first year that I have brought sunny yellow into the house at the first sign of spring. I'm usually a pink kind of girl. I now LOVE combinations of yellow flowers (my new favorite color of roses thanks to the MR.) mixed with the many bright greens peeking out from the garden floor.
    Oh Patricia, I adore that beautiful home that you opened with! Being a gardener I also spotted that very proper privet alongside. Your table and tulips are such a warm welcome to your lovely home too!
    Have a beautiful Tuesday.
    xo Lisa

    You know I love the yellow! Isn't it funny how sometimes a color seems to suddenly pop up every where you look?

    Yellow is such a bright and cheery color. In every house I ever lived in my kitchen was always painted yellow...still is! :-)

    Yellow is *it* for me right now...the Forsythia's are blooming and thank goodness because they have to carry the burden of brightness for the moment as our sun is still refusing to come out and play!

    -Love that yellow house!

    I've always lived in various shades of yellow houses, aside from the past year! I miss my last yellow house built in 1900. I'm loving the color green and especially the yellow daffodils blooming in my yard. Can't wait to see the color of the tulips!
    Have a great day Patricia.

    Hi,
    I just love the house and the setting. It is a little victorian jewel. I grew up just below Hastings in Yonkers. I love the architecture. Thank you for brightening the day.
