As I tear through the shopping centres on my quest to complete lists before Christmas, I have been noticing a plethora of orange.
It seems just about every shop window features an orange item of one shade or another.
Pumpkin, Amber, Coral, Clay, Tangerine, Peach, Melon, Splice, call it what you will, but it’s all out there.
I know that once a colour appears en masse in the fashion industry, we can expect to see it in the home industry very soon thereafter.
I don’t mind touches of orange in the home, in soft furnishings, feature walls or even wallpaper, as long as it is in moderation.
However, I am really worried that we may return to that time in the ’90’s when everyone was giving their home a Tuscan makeover by laying terracotta tiles and painting the walls apricot.
Frances Mayes has a lot to answer for!
