Blue and Yellow can make you feel warm in the winter

It was an October weekend, but it was bitterly cold. And the party was in a tent! The client wanted it to be fun and cheerful, and had chosen blue and yellow as the colors I had to work with. Yes, you are right those are not easy colors to put together. If you are not careful it will look like an Easter Party.
The client, Amy, had also told me that she loves crystal, and she was really looking forward to a party that would be different, unique. Actually she used the word “delicious”. After a lot of agonizing on my part, I decided that a blue tablecloth with centerpieces of yellow flowers (French tulips, calla lilies, dahlia, roses and orchids) was the way to make the blue and yellow design. Then we custom made five clear crystal ball chandeliers to hang over five other tables, each giving the impression of raindrops falling down onto arrangements of blue flowers with yellow tablecloths.
And that night when Amy walked in to the tent, I saw she was crying. They were tears of happiness.
Yes, she loved it very much.
