Olive Inspiration Board, Style Notes

Today’s inspiration board welcomes autumn in muted shades of olive green, chocolate brown, & caramel.  This is a sophisticated, earthy palette for a fall wedding or just a simple picnic gathering on a sunny November day.  Rustic elements are a natural accompaniment to these shades (the botanical butterfly print & candied apples,) but I’d like to try an unexpected twist on olive by using it in a glam setting (as in the gorgeous curtains with the chandelier.)  Rich & earthy all at once… “Olive it!”

    I just came across your beautiful blog. I have to say, it’s the best one I’ve ever seen. I am very new to blogging and am wondering how you create your stunning inspiration boards. Is it photoshop or another program?
