Colour Palette Inspiration

I am a strong believer that the best inspiration for home decor comes from all around us. Life is full of gorgeous colours, shapes and ideas. That is probably why I am addicted to General Paint’s Stylyze tool. You upload a photo of your choice and it provides you with a colour palette based on the colours in the photo. It’s a great way to turn inspiration into a usable colour palette for any room!

If you follow us on Instagram, Facebook or Pinterest, you’ll have seen some of the colour boards I’ve been creating lately but I thought I would share some of my favourites.  I’d love to know which board is your favourite – take a look and then leave me a comment!
