Mustard yellow (also known as "baby-runny-poos" around here) is not everyone's favourite colour. Especially when it is slightly greenish. We recently bought a $10 tufted sofa in this colour for our new place, and I'm pleased to see how good it can look.
On the colour wheel, this greenish-yellow is opposite purpley-pinks, which is why fuchsia looks so good with it. Pale pink is a winner too. A more classic combo for yellow is, of course, blue. I just find the white + wood + pinks is funkier and more... fresh.
I didn't always love yellow, especially not the 'baby-runny-poos' kind, but now I can't wait to experiment with it!
Are you a fan??

Hi Amy thanks for popping by! YOur blog is gorgeous and I can't believe you have a post on MUSTARD. This happens to be my new fav colour. I am looking at buying a macraeme pot plant holder in mustard. I was going to go with white but I need a pop and I love this colour. I love your couch-even more that it is second hand and cost $10. I think we will be great friends!!!, Belinda
ReplyDeleteI think mustard can look great in the right space as long as it's kept super fresh! Love it with fuschia too! Love to see the sofa - $10? Bargain!! xo Kirsty
