An Education in Color

Happy Friday! I’m having a fabulous time hanging out in Atlanta, soaking up all the good color knowledge that Color Guru – I mean Colour Guru, Maria Killam, can dish out. Friends, I am in training this week to be a newly-certified True Colour Expert! Who knew education could be this much fun?

Here’s me and my new Canadian BFF, Maria Killam. Isn’t she darling?

I’m learning all there is to know about undertones . . .

In addition to attending this intensive color training workshop, I am also blessed to get to spend some time with my dear friend, LaJuana Gill, who is a very talented interior designer herself. She and her husband recently moved from Nashville to Atlanta, so I am staying at their lovely home. How lucky am I to have even more reason to chat with LaJuana about decorating?

Hope you all have as fabulous a weekend as I will have, but I seriously doubt you will!
