Moroccan Pouffe

I've been thinking about getting a Morrocan Pouffe for my living area for quite sometime now, but something has always held me back. But I just don't know what it is!

They suit a wide variety of design styles and are so practical as little side tables or of course to put your feet up on as you sit with your laptop on your lap blogging away (right?)

 

 

 

 

 
 
 


For those of you who have been reading my blog for a while now would know that my living space is white, yellow with touches of grey and silver. 
Louise at Table Tonic has every colour under the sun to choose from, 
so I have narrowed my choices down IF I go ahead and get one they would be ...


I didn't put the white as I already have a lot of white going on so I'm thinking of some contrast.

They're only $199, not a huge dent in the budget but still it has to be a carefully considered decision!

I would love to hear which colour you think I should go for or if you have another opinion in colour (or even style) I would definitely appreciate any and/or all of your feedback.

Thanks !

Colour Theory : Grey

I was having a conversation with one of the girls at work today and she said she thinks grey as cold! Interesting. It's most likely a thought many people think. I think the opposite. Those of you who know, know I love Grey - love, love. Yes, it is my favourite colour. Not only does my wardrobe largely consist of grey pieces but of course I painted my bedroom Grey. It can be quite elegant but also very calming for me.

Gray is the color of intellect, knowledge, and wisdom. It is perceived as long-lasting, classic, and often as sleek or refined. It is a color that is dignified, conservative, and carries authority. Gray is controlled and inconspicuous and is considered a color of compromise, perhaps because it sits between the extremes of black and white. Gray is a perfect neutral, which is why designers often use it as a background color. - sensational colour


In my bedroom I used Resene Double Concrete and I love it. Looks great with the crisp white trims in Dulux Lexicon Quarter
