The white cover and pillows did nothing for my taste buds lol. It just looked lifeless. I would maybe get a tailered White slipcover for Summer if you wanted to lighten things up. But my opinion is the Carmel...

So if you bring in hydrangeas do they dry out and last forever? Or do you put them in water. I love the glasses, the colour is awesome<br />JaniceJanice Kay Schaubhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01218296462551967972noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5582451086146217677.post-89774178588141852162014-08-19T11:30:58.862-07:002014-08-19T11:30:58.862-07:00You've done an a amazing job with your garden,...You've done an a amazing job with your garden, Cielo! A note on Hydrangeas. Southern soils tend to be acidic, which is great for blue Hydrangeas - this can actually change the color of your pink Hydrangea to blue - it's the pH levels. Pink Hydrangeas want a lowered pH level - there's a slow release fertilizer called Color Me Pink which is supposed to work or adding dolomitic lime into the soil. They'll all love a layer of compost or composted manure in the fall - I love the look of your couch in white! Hope you have a wonderful week!<br />KathyKathyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00310044533488593888noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5582451086146217677.post-41573924337668914672014-08-17T17:50:31.178-07:002014-08-17T17:50:31.178-07:00Oh thank you so very much!

I cannot tell you how much you had helped me with my decisions… this is exactly what I was attempting to hear from my readers—a straight and honest comment that could help me see through other’s eyes. And to hear that it is OK to keep the camel color furniture.... how nice. I truly appreciate it. <br /><br />CieloCIELOhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09117785476130671239noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5582451086146217677.post-57128067807249284502014-08-17T10:53:39.860-07:002014-08-17T10:53:39.860-07:00I like having as many options as possible because ...I like having as many options as possible because I like change. I think the white looks great in spring and summer and the camel color brings the warmth of fall if you like to bring those colors in for that season.. Winter could go either way. I would go with white slip covers. Pottery Barn has some for T cushion sofas and sometimes you can find them on EBAY too. You always make lovely choices so whatever way you go it will be perfect.<br />Sherry<br />SHERRYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15287372955609491433noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5582451086146217677.post-60342310339569898702014-08-17T10:08:29.645-07:002014-08-17T10:08:29.645-07:00I like the camel colored sofa.

But the camel is a neutral color and I think it anchors your room and provides a better foil for colors and accessories as you want to change them out. It has a warmth that the white lacks. Everyone has her own opinion, but it's your home, really. I liked the white sofa UNTIL I saw the lovely camel colored ones. The chevron pattern on the rug and the geometric prints on the pillows create a sharp contrast with the white sofa. I like the way the camel color anchors and softens the look.
