Marine… and Breathe

April 24th, 2009 @ 2:19 pm by Mrs. Apple Cider

I am adjusting to adding the color “marine” to our color palette. I am not second guessing it… I am excited, but must admit that I am nervous. I decided I’d better update my inspiration board, and headed to one of my favorite blogs to get inspiration. I read the AMAZING Snippet & Ink Blog every single day. It is put together so incredibly. I decided to try and find some inspiration boards that will work with my “marine” choice. I found this inspiration board, which seems to fit with my colors.

And I found this when perusing Flickr.

After really thinking about it I started wondering… does it really matter? I am stressing about a color… a simple color! They are all so similar. So I am taking a breath and once again reminding myself to embrace MARINE!

I decided to re-do my inspiration board to incorporate marine, and I am feeling really good about it now.

Why is it that brides spend SOOO much time thinking about colors and changes to their “wedding ideas”?

It looks great! :) I think I stress about colors because I know that they’re going to be in all of our pictures, and I don’t want to be just another “cookie cutter” wedding. But, that’s just my $.02.

I’m with you, Cider…I’ve been SO indecisive and stressed out over a color scheme. I love your new board!

The marine is a great addition your palette. I second Miss Lab. I am learning to go with my gut. Once a decision is made, there is no going back.
