Inspiration in a FLASH!





Many on-line retailers have started membership only “flash sale sites”.  These sites offer 1, 2, and 3 day sales on numerous items, many at 40% to 70% off.  They can be a great value, but they can also offer a LOT of inspiration.


Many times these sites pulls items together by decorating styles/themes and color stories.  So if you're in to Mid-Century Modern or the color orange, they've got you covered. 


A recent “event” offered everything you can imaging in the color kiwi (one of my personal favorites).  From a lime squeezer to a 600 thread count duvet.  Another offered a beautifully arranged collection of industrial chic items for the home. 



This is an example of a recent Joss & Main color story


True Blue: Eye-Catching Decor in a Wash of Cool Hues

A jewel-toned evening sky. The shimmering waves of a sunlit ocean. The soft palette of a blooming hydrangea. Capture the brilliance of nature’s most dynamic color with this stunning collection of True Blue finds. Refresh with cheerful cornflower side tables, chests, and chairs, set a tray of cocktails atop a cerulean-hued ottoman, cast bold light with bright aqua lamps, and display plush pillows, faux florals, chic vases, clocks, and more in endless shades of blue.

 

So be it a color you love or a decorating style you have (or have been thinking about), try a flash sites for a little inspiration.  
Here are a few of my fav’s.
