Sweet Honeysuckle

According to HGTV Design Trends, the Color of the Year has just been announced.  I'd love to know who gets to decide this stuff...anyway the color of choice is honeysuckle.

Here is the real thing.


These rooms totally make me want to sell everything I own and start all over again!

So the question is...how can I get some honeysuckle in my house? I have an afghan that my grandmother made me as a gift for my high school graduation.  When I was younger I don't think I entirely realized what a lovely and precious gift it was.  Here it is...


She crocheted the cream colored base and then sort of cross-stitched the design.

I treasure it now and would love to spruce up my guest room using this afghan as a jumping off point.  The guest room furniture consists of 3 pieces we inherited from my husband's grandmother.  Very antique looking as you can see from these pics.

Looks like I'm missing a handle...not sure where it is.



I also have these linens that my Dad let me take when we emptied out my grandmother's house.  She loved pink...or should I say honeysuckle?





So...is there any way you can add honeysuckle to your home?
Thanks for visiting...
