I love the balance of glorious, warm tones in Etsy seller
Laura Marie W's Maui Dozing (sold) oil on canvas painting. The combination of orange, green, lilac, and yellow is such an unusual one, but it really is breathtaking. The painting's landscape itself is actually what hit a soft spot in me, though.

Etsy seller Spruce Home, a design studio based in Austin, TX, has upholstered this ornate, wooden-based ottoman in Amy Butler's
Nigella Primrose fabric, giving it a vibrant, modern update. The
Ottoman Empire ($425) stands 14 inches high with a 30-inch diameter, the perfect size to use as a round coffee table, or set with a tray or some shelter books on top. Not only do I adore the aqua and cool green fabric used, but it looks like it'd be super comfortable used as a stool, foot rest, or even a dog bed.

If the fleeting beauty of a fresh floral bouquet isn't what you had in mind for your
wedding or other celebration, you're in luck. Etsy seller
Princess Lasertron makes custom bouquets from hand-stitched felt and vintage buttons that will last well beyond your ceremony, and perhaps your five-year anniversary. But you needn't be tying the knot to take one home.

I'm not big on sentimental central quotes on cards, but I couldn't resist the adorable mod living-room design on this
Welcome to Your New Home Card ($4). I wouldn't mind moving right into this living room; you know I adore the lime green and raspberry color scheme. It's pretty much the perfect housewarming card for all those hip new homeowners you know.

One simple way to perk up your
endless Summer is by bringing color into your home. But that needn't mean repainting your walls, or letting your kids go wild with finger paint. A vibrant accessory here or there will surely suffice.
