Warm up to a more colorful home with these tips written by Sarah Lyon
I shared with Sarah my approach for selecting paint colors:
“Say you are done with gray and ready for a change,” Watts says. “Gray typically has a cool undertone, so start looking at blues that have a little bit of green in them. You can always go lighter or darker on the spectrum, depending on how dramatic you want your room.”

Interior designer Nadia Watts also nods toward this non-permanent approach to color. “I suggest starting with pillows and accent lighting; pillows are a great way to add a pop of color in your room without having to commit to a fully upholstered piece of furniture and an accent lamp with color can feel like a big step,” she says. “Remember that you can always move the lamp to different rooms and change the lamp shade.”

Samantha included the moment- the exact spark of inspiration that started the Gem Collection… the ah-ha! I had while visiting The Neustadt and holding the Tiffany glass jewels…
“she imagined a product collection inspired by those pieces of jewel-toned glass. “This needs to be on a fabric,” recalls Watts. “This needs to be something else other than glass. You need to see this in another way.””
Thank you to Jacqueline Terrebonne and Samantha Emmerling!
As an Interior Design I find inspiration everywhere I go. Today I am sharing a very near and dear place to me, The Neustadt Collection.
In the image above, I am standing in front of Tiffany Jewels at The Neustadt Collection in Queens, NY. These colorful jewels are from the Tiffany Studios when the firm closed in the 1930’s. The Neustadt is a near and dear place for me. My great great grandfather, Louis Comfort Tiffany, has always invoked such a special inspiration for me and visiting The Neustadt Collection brings it all to life.
I will be visiting The Neustadt this coming week and will be inspired once again!
