The Coral Desk

I haven't posted on coral in a little while, and lest everyone think I'm slipping, here's a fresh dose. In the Summer spirit, I'm loving the idea of a matching desk set in coral branch patterns of orange and blue. My inspiration for this color combination is blogging friend Anne Harwell, of Annechovie, and her wonderful depiction of an antique French chair, available on Etsy. Anne is a gifted artist and does beautiful prints of homes and objets d'art. 

It's unfortunate that often we spend so much of our lives in the office, and so little thought on how that space affects us. Wonderful store, Iomoi, has the most beautiful office accessories (my thanks to Beth at Chinoiserie Chic for bringing Iomoi to my attention!).

And a Thomas Paul floor rug - just the thing to tie it all together!

Oh I LOVE these! Big fan of coral. And love Annechovie's art. The coral/orange and turquoise is one of my absolute favorite color combos.

Coral and turquoise are two of my favourite colours! I'm still thinking about a beautiful coral necklace that I saw in Paris and did not buy! (sigh)

I love the combination of turquoise and orange -- it's so fresh and happy. I can't believe I just discovered Iomoi, too, it's absolutely amazing, isn't it?

Thanks for the mention of Chinoiserie Chic. I have just sent this off to Irene at Iomoi. I know she will really appreciate it.

Love the look of coral. I found an old Botanica calender for a $1.00 ay Borders Books & now have 12 lovely repros of coral botanicals to play with. This actually gives me some great inspiration.
Gratitudes!!

Coral is great in all forms, I used it on tissue boxes and matches I make.
