Yellow is such a happy color! I decorate with yellow all year long (almost all of my walls are yellow) but I particularly love using yellow for spring decorating.
Here are a few ways I’ve used yellow in my home.

I wasn’t sure what to do with my fireplace mantel (until I decorate for Easter) so I kept it simple and popped some faux yellow tulips in a pitcher for the time being.
I have my vintage yellow scale in my living room china cabinet.
My favorite yellow lamp from Target gets moved around the living all the time.
I have yellow curtains in my kitchen.
I also have yellow and red toile in the cabinet above my microwave.
There’s a few little yellow accent pieces in the the living room boockcases.
and of course can’t forget my news yellow addition….
…my yellow accent chair from Target
Yellow is always cheerful!
I love your Target chair! Did you also get your yellow-gold pitcher from Target? I think we have the same one. What’s funny is that now yellow has become very “popular” and it always was with us1

Thanks Brenda! I love it too (and it’s firm which makes it easy to get out of 🙂 ) I think I did get that pitcher at Target. I’ve always loved yellow. Every house I’ve ever owned had yellow walls. That’s funny that yellow has become suddenly “popular”. Just shows you that you should always surround yourself with what you love and eventually it’ll be “in style”.
Love your pops of yellow. It goes so well with the red.
You know of course that I absolutely love your color style.
I was getting batting for a quilt at the fabric store yesterday and the gift section had the most amazing yellow ceramic piece on sale. It would have looked perfect as a centerpiece on my dining room table and they had it filled with lavender. It was on sale, but for $40. I hated to resist, but I am looking for new bedding for the bedroom so I had to save my money.
Thank you Carol! You know I feel the same about your style too. That piece sounds so lovely but I understand about having to save money. I’m saving money to replace two old windows in our bedroom and then I’m going to repaint it.
Manuela – LOVE that yellow chair!! I love red and yellow together. You have to smile when you see those two colors. When we first moved into this house (45 years ago), I had yellow shag carpet put in and my couch was an Ethan Allen in yellow and white big plaid. I always loved that room. It was so bright and cheery!

Your house is just so happy!!! 🙂
Yellow is a favorite color of mine. First comes pink but not in decorating. I have a lot of yellow walls in my house. It’s just a happy color.
Very pretty, Manuela, and it looks so good with your red accents, too. I never thought I was a yellow lover until I realized I had about 4 or 5 rooms painted yellow in our old house. : )
Love your touches of yellow. After reading your post I looked around my abode, and really don’t see any yellow – except for some bananas on the counter. Hmmm! I may need to rethink that as I need some touches of cheer around here right now.
Enjoy your evening.
I love yellow! Your touches of yellow make me smile. Definitely a feeling of Spring!

In total agreement with you on yellow! I’ve been smiling ever since I arrived.
Manuela, everything is so bright and cheerful. I love it. The yellow, red, and blue is wonderful. The globes and goodies you have on the shelves is fun.
I love yellow too! Such a cheery color any time of the year. Mimi
It is so cheery!
I have yellow walls too, so I’ve used other colors to accent but the yellow accents look great with your yellow walls! I’ll have to consider this!
I have always loved the yellow and red combination in your home. I LOVE the chair. Is it comfortable? I’m always afraid to buy furniture online in case it’s horrible to sit on.
Ahhh…..yellow certainly evokes thoughts of Spring! You have chosen well with your creative use of yellow in your decor!
I love yellow also…our kitchen is yellow and even the ceiling! I have yellow accents in my living room also. It just makes me feel sunshiney!
Love all the yellow accents in your home – it’s so cheery!
Manuela, I LOVE this so much. The combination of the red and yellow is gorgeous. I also adore the toile touch you added to the cabinet. My favorite pattern.
Cynthia
Of course, I LOVE you colors!
I should add even more yellow to my kitchen. Perhaps it is time to exchange the green buffalo check valance for yellow? Hmmmm…
I love all of that YELLOW! Springy for sure! Enjoy your evening dear Manuela, HUGS!
So happy!! Yellow is one of my favorite colors. In fact, after yellow was my “color of the year” in 2012, I just couldn’t let it go so I dubbed it my official Life Color. A room just can not look shabby and unloved when it has a pop of yellow in it. I love every single bit of yours. (And I really love the tulips on the mantel. That might be just the solution here, or something like that. I don’t have any mantel mojo right now, and all that is within me is screaming SIMPLE.
(And I love that mirror, too.)
