To help our readers recreate a room from an inspiration photo, we introduced "Get The Look". By clicking on any image you will find where to find the piece, and any custom options that may be available, including changing the color! These fun and inspiring posts take the guesswork out of putting together a beautiful room.

A key part of re-decorating is to first find inspiration photos to get your creative energy flowing. That is why we created "Rooms to Love," to help you find photos that will inspire a fresh perspective. It can be very difficult to express your own decor style; by collecting inspiration photos you love, it can help you identify what elements you want to re-create in your own home. With each of these posts, we include an overview of the space, why it works, and identify the key design elements that make it unique.
We love putting together these inspiration boards, to do just that, inspire our readers! Textiles, lighting, finishes and accessories are all highlighted around a central theme or color(s). We typically start with a rug, or a pillow that we LOVE and work around the inspiration piece to create a complete look. All we need now are a couple of beverages and a delicious meal to enjoy this backyard dining experience!

Depending on the amount of red or blue it contains, yellow can have many different color personalities, making decorating with yellow easy in any room. A yellow that has a red undertone creates a warm and welcoming feeling, and are best used on larger pieces of furniture, such as the bed pictured, and walls. A yellow that contains an undertone of blue has a cooler effect and should be used on small pieces of furniture, such as the end table pictured. Buttery yellows, such as the upholstery pieces pictured, can really be used anywhere because they provide a neutral feeling in a room. Experiment with different shades of yellow to see what works for you and your home!

Creating a rich and luxurious look is effortless when working with jewel tones because of their natural ability to transform the mundane. The bold and vibrant tones in the rose rug, shown above, sets the stage for a dramatic look. Choosing this colorful rug as your focal point is not meant for the faint of heart. We paired it with a snappy teal, artichoke green, deep marine blue, and a sunny marigold. These colors highlight the liveliness of the rose rug without drowning it with too many accent colors.
This color palette would be a beautiful choice for bold painted furniture in a family room. The tones are rich and energetic while also creating an undeniable warmth. Since the sofa is typically the largest piece in a living room, the marigold would be a perfect fabric color. Choosing the color with the smallest quantity in the rug for the largest piece of furniture highlights the color palette without overwhelming the senses. For example, if you chose the purple or red hues for the sofa fabric, that color would now dominate the palette and drown out all of the other beautiful colors. Jewel tones are bold and daring, so use them wisely!

Color, color, and more color! This adorable, colorful breakfast nook is a perfect way to start your day, and if the coffee doesn't wake you up, than the color certainly will. Bright orange, hints of blue, and zesty lime greens create a fun and vibrant space that exudes happiness and cheer.
The contours of the chair design, the circular print on the cushions, the scalloping of the curtains, and the varying sized stripes in the rug make a bold and creative statement. Choosing a table with a simple silhouette allows all of these other elements to really shine. This room is a well balanced space, because it achieves both a playful and fun environment, while also showing a sense of restraint.
