Spring colors are bright and clear.  They have energy and playfulness.  As the saying goes, "April showers bring May flowers."  I think of gorgeous poppies, roses and tulips blooming in the garden.  I think of cute patterns on rain boots and umbrellas.  This is the multi-color floral umbrella that I always keep in my purse.  It brings in some bright colors on a grey rainy day.

Each of these ideas offer a different feeling for spring.  The complementary pairing has energy and contrast.  The analogous palette is warm and cozy.  Lastly the triadic palette has a perfect blend of cool and warm colors. Which do you prefer for your spring decor?
