Love it . . . Keep it. . . Gray and Yellow

Welcome to “Love it…Keep it” where I talk about what I’m currently loving and keeping this week. Right now I am obsessed with the color combo of gray and yellow! I am planning a makeover for our guest room and definitely want to use gray, yellow, and white. Below is some of my inspiration:
This one is from a blog I love, called Little Green Notebook. I am obsessed with the fabric she used for the curtains….but I contacted her and it is way out of my price range….so I’ll have to hunt around for something similar on a budget! If anyone knows of anything like this, please let me know! I also love the yellow lamp. I spotted one very similar to it at TJ Max…I hope it is still there!
This next photo I’ve been obsessed with for over a year and want to recreate it on a wall in the guest room. It is from the Sweet & Saucy Shop in CA. I went to high school with Melody, the owner, and her stuff is truly amazing! (She made yummy cupcakes for our second wedding reception in CA). Plus, her shop looks adorable. The photo was taken by Diandra Ann, love her!
And of course I had do find some cute gray and yellow weddings as inspiration too!
And don’t you just love this stationary? I think the color combo is amazing…love it!
What are you lovin’ and keepin’ this week?

    I agree. Can't wait to stay in the "new" guest room when it's finished. My son married such a creative girl!

    What a great color combo idea. I have a guest room that I would like to redo and think that this just may be it. Thanks for sharing. I love your "love it – keep it" posts.

    Hi, I know this is a little late, but I just found your post through Google. I am looking for gray and yellow fabric for drapes. Can you tell me what the fabric in the first picture is? Did you find any fabrics that were in your price range like that? If so, can you tell me where? Thanks
