It’s the time of the year when I’m always wondering what the heck I’m doing living in Washington DC? It’s gray, freezing, dreary and windy outside and everyone is sick it seems like. For President’s Day weekend we had a trip to Miami planned, which we had been looking forward to so much, but then Luke got sick. So we stayed back and missed out on all that sunshine. I’m sure there is a study somewhere that says you live longer in sunny and warm climates. While I can at the moment, only dream of living like that, I’m thinking of ways we can bring the sunshine inside….

Sunny artwork, a happy carpet, yellow lamps…
…a sparkly cabinet…
…a “citrony” breakfast nook with a lemon chandelier. Here I could pretend I live in California or Florida.
A yellow carpet (Dwell Studio) would help the doldrums…

…a sunny breakfast banquet…
…and egg yolk colored bedding ensemble….
…an old fashioned wallpaper in yellow….
Perhaps paint some chairs yellow….
…or a wall….
…or a bathtub?
Or design a staircase that makes you smile…
…or a paint a door that jolts you awake….
…add billowy yellow curtains in your living room and pretend the sun is shining all day long….
…a headboard, dress, stools,frames…..really anything…
I’ll settle for just some pillows…
…even just a bright sunshiny poof!
Just bring the sunshine back!!!
