Pops of color for Spring!

We've hit that strange shoulder season in the Northeast between winter and spring when we can get 60 degree swings in temperature in a 24 hour period.  It results in both some very confused bulbs and some lifted and thawed out spirits.  But at this time every year, I get this uncontrollable itch to add bright pops of new color to every room.  It feels something like I'm waking up my house after hibernation.  So, here are a few items that caught my eye in the past week or so.  Enjoy!

I Love, love, love this poster by Andy Wharhol.  It comes in a couple of colors and brings in a BIG color pop.

Serena Bench
I'm loving Ballard Designs new Serena Bench that comes in both white and black bases and hundreds of colors - place it in an entry, in front of your fireplace, or at the foot of your bed.

And, of course when looking for pops of color, one must see what Jonathan Addler has cooked up, like these new little pouches in jute with fun silk screened silhouettes...for carrying along, or hanging in your mudroom to house small clutter.
