It is still for sale, as are several other Shutze homes as I'm sure you know, and I just did a series on them.

There are certain elements and colorstion that I love, but taken in its entirety (sp?), it is so busy and so full that my brain goes into overdrive. Is there an emerging trend in design towards a Victorian/Edwardian color aesthetic?maryhttp://mjhdesignarts.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-84275163618101160712009-07-09T11:20:19.417-04:002009-07-09T11:20:19.417-04:00I love the colours, so vibrant and lively!I love the colours, so vibrant and lively!The Ivory Pearl Teamhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03535405125892431876noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-91083479621454645082009-07-09T11:12:56.899-04:002009-07-09T11:12:56.899-04:00Wow, these colors just jolted my morning caffeine ...Wow, these colors just jolted my morning caffeine buzz to a new level.soodie ::https://www.blogger.com/profile/07685244187423698176noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-16497936182978647012009-07-09T11:03:53.509-04:002009-07-09T11:03:53.509-04:00I'm with you!

I have painted a bath a sunny, buttery yellow, another a periwinkle blue, deep hue, the back of the loving room bookcases a coral/terracotta/ and the kitchen back splash a deep Chinese red. I am looking for a suzanni like Joni's to add to the living room mix where I have corals, bronzes, muted golds.It is a fine line on how many colors to mix to not make a confusing jumble!Karenahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05206642885608991170noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-34961211.post-69888688692330198372009-07-09T10:31:33.894-04:002009-07-09T10:31:33.894-04:00I love Color Hunter!

My living room has celadon green, ice blue, coral pink, yellow, black, red, beige and it is wonderful. But again, these are more in the pastel range. The top two photos you use are more in the pastel range which I think you can mix with more abandon.Beth Connollyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10443450944645563476noreply@blogger.com
