Orange Velvet

Maybe its because Autumn is underway. Maybe its because I'm thinking about my son's Halloween costume. Maybe its because I miss that terrible orange velour sofa that inhabited my college roommate's bedroom. Whatever the reason, I'm definitely feeling the orange velvet today. Just imagine the possibilities.

I just love the orange daybed. What costume are you making?

He'll go as a construction worker, Scottish highlander or train engineer. When I first asked what he'd like to go as for Halloween, he said Michael Jackson. I don't think he knew what I was asking! He'll be three in November.

Years and years ago, we had a "cinnamon" (orange) suede sofa.. it was the most comfortable sofa and looked good everywhere... then after years, it became tired and we were tired of the sight of it.
Now, I want to reupholster my new sofa , a nice orange velvet lol.
or maybe just an old gold ...

I had an orange room growing up from middle school until I graduated high school. I loved it.

Those ruffles on the curtains in the second picture are great. It hadn't occurred to me to put ruffles on the sides of curtains for some reason...

LOVE burnt orange and peacock blue together! Thinking of those colors as accents in my dining and living rooms.
