The holiday slideshow will continue shortly, but I had to sneak this post in as there's only a bit over 6 hours left of January... So, without further ado, introducing Collecting Colour! Each month I'm going to pick a colour, curate a collection of things lying about the house and photograph it. Hurrah!
Are you excited? I am! And if you are excited you're welcome to join in too - you can follow along with my monthly colour picks, or you can pick your own, either way is ACE! And I promise for the next eleven months I'll do the post a bit earlier (the idea only came to me at four yesterday morning - thank you jet lag!).
If you join in please let me know - tweet me (@ejorpin) or leave a link in a comment below. Oh, and do grab the button over on the side bar if you like!
January is yellow because yellow is bright and sunny and happy, and I am a little bit (okay, a lot) over the cold, dry Seoul winter. What can you spy in January's collection?
UPDATE! I've added a link up tool, so if you do participate (on Flickr or your blog or Instagram or anywhere really!) add your link for January below. Hurrah!
What a fabulous idea! I love it and starting with yellow is so bright and refreshing (especially when we're in the middle of winter). :)
ReplyDeleteYou collection is beautiful and your little teacup is adorable. I like the little bits of lego too!
I'd love to take part if you'll have me.

YAY! Welcome on board, so happy you want to join in :)
DeleteI love this idea! I would love to join you but I'm a commitment-phobe with a bad memory :( Can I say that I'll try? Looking forward to it though xx
ReplyDeleteWell I'm hardly setting a high standard by posting January on the night of the last day of the month! So yes! Please join in, whenever and wherever you can! Hurrah!
Deletei'm loving collecting colour! A LOT (yellow is my favourite colour after all). lovely work em xx
ReplyDeleteThis is a great idea! I'm excited about seeing your colour selection each month. I'll try to pull something together today. Are you thinking of posting a link on your post to other people who are participating? I'll likely toss it up on Flickr and show you a link in the comments. Yey! Fun, fun. Now to procure some yellow bits...
ReplyDeleteCan't wait to see what you collect - I have a feeling it may be amazing! Have added a link up so please add a link to your pic when you take it :)
DeleteI always look forward to your blog post. Your photos are beautiful!
ReplyDeleteThanks so much CarolAnn, you are too kind!
DeleteDO love the yellow, so bright and cheery, and a ocmplete denial of the cold white and grey of winters.......
ReplyDeleteI LOVE THIS! I wish I had seen it two days ago so I could have done it for January. Maybe I can do it later in the year...
