Stylist and designer Raina Kattelson lives in Hudson Valley with her husband and two daughters. Of course, I had to make a palette out of the delicious colors in the family’s dining area. The white furniture and pops of color against the bright wall are so cheerful! Click here to see the original sneak peek.
We have added a roundup to the “Simply Color” column. I hope you enjoy! — Lauren

Simply beautiful!
Oh I think that is exactly the green I’ve been wanting for my living room. How do you think it would look against a medium dark wood trim?

Love it!
That is such a refreshing room. Not over done or over powering. I love the mix of colors. Looks pretty inexpensive to get that look with the items you showed.
Thanks Grace!
Hey, number 5 & 6 in the links are not correct. You put the item for number 6 in place of 5 and didn’t even write anything for those gorgeous candle holders!

Thanks everyone! So happy you like the addition of the roundup!
I also love the color round up! I decorate more around my favorite colorful objects than anything else, so I find it very inspiring.

so sunny and fun!
Ooooh, I’m LOVING these colors!

That had to be one of my top 5 fav sneak peeks ever. Looooved it.
One of my favorite color combos! Great new column. Everyone needs a little color in their lives:)
Love this. Did I miss where those great white bookcases are from (exactly what I am looking for)….or were they custom made?
Uplifting…immediately a smile comes to my face when I see a room full of perceived random colour. I love colour! thanks…great start to my day :)
Thanks everyone!! Lovely to hear everyones comments. Sorry Bernie the bookcases are custom.
The round-up addition is just perfect !!
This blog is getting better everyday !!
A round up was a great idea for this post series!
I love this photo! What a fabulous palette. That blue is one of my favorite colors, so now I want to go see if I have stuff in the other colors that I can mix with the blue and create my own happy spot like this. Those bookcases are just what I need, too.
Thanks for the inspiration. I loved the whole house in the sneak peek, too. And the new round up is great. This is such a fun column. The photos are always beautiful, and the color palettes so dreamy. The only problem is, every single one is THE perfect one! ;)
This is my absolute favorite color combination ever! I used to use these colors on all my presentation materials in architecture school.
so so pretty!
My jaw literally dropped when I saw this photo. I can’t stop looking at it. It’s absolutely gorgeous!
