I don't know if it was my sister and I fighting over who got to sit in the pink seat at Denny's way back in the '70s or that I'm burdened by the gray Pacific Northwest "summer" weather. In any case, seeing a feature on a California beach bungalow got my pink and orange heartstrings plucked once again. And, I can't think of a better way to "beef" up the sunny disposition in one's home. —Uncle Beefy from The Bedlam of Beefy

Cape Cod Lounge Chair Cushion - $220.00 »
Sure, of course! Why wouldn't you have thought about sipping on a tasty tropical beverage topped off with a little paper umbrella when imagining yourself sitting is this chirpy chair?! Now, that part about you imagining your Uncle waiting on you hand and foot? Don't push it, kids.

Atticus, Hand-tufted Wool Rug »
Aside from the happy hues, c'mon: this rug is named after a cat that's named after a character in "To Kill A Mockingbird." I've always dreamed about acquiring an Angela Adams rug and this would be high on the list for multiple reasons.

TIPP Pink Fabric Large Lampshade - GBP 9.00 »
Hey, fuchsia ain't a pink for everybody. But, this simple tapered shade is such an easy way to add a perfect little pop. And it couldn't be any easier to switch things up when you're ready for a refresher.

Such a great way to introduce a citrus-inspired splash to a living room, guest room or master. The clean lines and openness of the design keep the intensity of the color upbeat but not overbearing. Parked next to a crisp white couch, these babies won't wear out their welcome too soon!
