Everyone needs a daily dose of color and pattern inspiration. BigBrightBold inspires and delights through showcasing colorful places, spaces and things.
I met Paper Calyx's Stacy Vetter in San Francisco's CraftsWomen fair. I immediately fell in love with the swashes of color and bold brush strokes. Stacy's watercolors make for a perfect holiday card, showcasing simple, natural beauty in monochromatic hues.

We got the chance to see Life of Pi yesterday and were completely blown away! The movie is filled with such incredible scenes and colors. The 3D ride - director Ang Lee's groundbreaking movie event about a young man who survives a disaster at sea and is hurtled into an epic journey of adventure and discovery - is a wild, magical visual feast.
According to the Miami Student,"That journey is the most amazing visual experience I’ve ever had at the movies. That’s a bold statement, especially in the face of the spectacular aesthetics produced by James Cameron’s Avatar. But unlike Avatar, which is set on a tropical, distant planet, Life of Pi is much more intimate. From breaching whales to a myriad of meerkats on an algae island, it brings the world we live in to life on the silver screen like never before, making it more believable and astounding because of that."

Jonathan Adler and Trina Turk are my two favorite home decor stores. Their colorful California lifestyle products are so vibrant! Whether its the Bargello pillows and ping pong paddle covers, a ceramic salt shaker, or a custom needlepoint rug, the Jonathan Adler Home is energetic and quirky. The San Francisco Fillmore store is especially festive for the holidays.

Jonathan Adler is the master of Happy and Quirky chic: mixing and matching with panache, believing colors can't clash, and surrounding everyone with smile-inducing decor. I love all the new colorful products released, including patterned note cards, umbrellas, and bedding.
