Ornamental Inspiration: Flamingo Version

The holidays are filled with endless amounts of ornaments”¦ and I wish I could buy them all.  But this year my Christmas tree features red and turquoise balls—nothing too fancy. When I saw this pretty little horse ornament, I knew I wanted to do something with it.

Of course, it didn’t fit into my current holiday decorations, but I loved the colors and decided to make a mood board instead. There’s no limit when it comes to colors for a wedding palette, as long as you use them wisely. So, my inspiration board features 5 colors: blush pink, purple, beige, olive green, and turquoise/teal.

These colors remind me of a romantic Paris-infused wedding. With the not-so-obvious Eiffel tower, but lots of glittery elements such as brooches and colored diamond rings, to a soft palette for a bouquet that includes a bold olive green satin ribbon as cake decoration.

This is not a typical wedding inspiration board, but I think it still works.

Happy holidays!
