monday color combo

we atlantan's had some crazy stormy weather last night, tornadoes, straight line winds, thunder and lightening, heavy rains...you know...run of the mill springtime stuff. it's still a bit weird to me and somewhat reminiscent of my youth in the tornado alley of the midwest to be woken by a tornado drill so loud that you think IT is the tornado. then a man's voice comes over a loudspeaker almost as if it was god himself telling you to "take cover now!!!"
well monday's color combo comes from the stormy side of spring. and it's also sort of a play on color itself...it's wood & gray. i have a lot of this in my own home. it is warm and welcoming, soothing and calming. it fits well into any design...rustic, elegant, modern, country and all the rest. so..enjoy and happy monday!
