In honour of daffodils: yellow interior design

One of the very best things about the arrival of spring (after being able to leave the office in daylight) has to be the slow and gradual emergence of the daffodil, carpeting the floor with happy yellow brilliance. So in honour of Spring, I went hunting for open and bright decor ideas that use the colour yellow as their theme. Yellow rooms shine with optimism, enlightenment, and happiness. Yellow is also supposed to instill optimism and energy, as well as spark creative thoughts, which makes it a great colour for a kitchen or a kids room. If it were possible to carpet a room with daffodils, it's something I really would consider very seriously!
