    Soft summer yellow

    Sunny, summer days that linger on into warm summer evenings call for the only appropriate shade of buttery, summer yellow. I especially love this colour against white - so crisp, clean and refreshing.

    I love yellow. I think it's a very underused color in the home and in fashion. Great pictures.

    Before I sold my house, I had a small bathroom I painted a buttery yellow, and I loved it! I wish I could wear yellow, but it's just not a good color on me.

    The whole collection is just gorgeous. What acute painting!

    That should have been "a cute painting." It's not acute at all. :)

    SR - I agree, we all tend to shy away from it for some reason. I've started to add little spots of it here and there.
    KS - I feel the same, most shades of yellow make me look like I've had the flu for a week! I'm sure there are a few yellows that would look lovely on you!
    DoC - I vote you find one just like it! - the perfect vintage summer dress in yellow and white! You'd never want to take it off!
    Right Bank - lol, I had to scroll down to see your second comment :)

    I can't get enough of yellow this year! I think I may be getting a bit obsessed!

    Yellow is my favorite color to live with. I've painted a few walls in our condo a yellow with the other walls a linen color and another spot of deep teal. I love the large singular flower wall mural.

    I love these summer yellows! I need to integrate yellow in my life more :) What a happy color.
