Spring doesn't come for a long time yet here in Minnesota, but an important step for me to beat the winter blah's, as the weather begins to get a teensy bit warmer, is to develop my palette for the upcoming season. That's just the way it works for me, always has. Then I can begin to move forward. After my thoughts in my post yesterday about always going back to my default color palette for spring, I decided to make some changes. So while watching the Olympics last night (Amazing!!) I poured through dozens of magazines, catalogs, etc. to try to develop a new palette that would pique my interest and would feel fresh and new to incorporate into my spring wardrobe and decorating. A little personal challenge. I came up with the following inspiration pages.
They are definitely warmer tones, rather than cooler, which I usually do for spring. Not much in the way of blue or pink. More creamy beige, green, soft brown and coral. They feel more earthy and calm to me. I think I like it! ![](https://blogger.googleusercontent.com/img/b/R29vZ2xl/AVvXsEj7bNr89wX3n5W5VCsXZBclkU6fmgd-QUL5R6a2K-1E2FSjsnkRjwTVAqNeXd15Gz9y8JDkldpDsfC2KE2Co1UR1KcEAsucAFaEe6vypZQrhoJYBiIB-IWsndZG6R5ArCOLqE4X/s400/DSC00544.jpg)

This process has been fun. I'm hoping it will motivate me to try some new things this spring and push myself a bit. We'll see!

I love it Kari....I just came across my inspiration book that I started long ago. I need to get back to working on it.

Great collages! Thank you for sharing your inspirations with us xo :)
Gosh, I just love magazine clippings, don't you? Your new palette is lovely and soft, nothing too bright, but those rich muted vintage-y colors. Looking forward to seeing your photos of decorating to come!
