Gray is one of those ideal colours that basically goes with anything - it can be used to soften a space with a dark palette, or it can be the airy accent hue in a white room. It's traditional as well as contemporary. And with the addition of home accessories, gray is always stylish. Here are eight great spaces with gray walls.

Tags help you find and organize your bookmarks by letting you select all of your bookmarks with a certain tag or combination of tags. Quickly add relevant tags to a bookmark by clicking on any of the recommended tags that appear under the description field on the “Save Bookmark” pop-up. When you are satisfied with the information in the “Save Bookmark” pop-up, click the “Save Bookmark” button. Now a link to the page is stored in your Diigo library, and the information you entered is stored with it.

Highlight Highlighting lets you denote important information on a page, just like highlighting in a book, but with Diigo, the highlighted text will be conveniently saved to your library as well. There are some important things for me to denote on my recipe. My wife doesn’t like pineapple, my grandfather can’t have eggs or chocolate, and I don’t like coconut very much, so I highlight those items on the recipe to let me know I need to deal with them. Highlight by clicking “Highlight” on the Diigolet. Then select the text you want to highlight. The text will be visually highlighted and the text is now stored in your library. It’s that easy. Click the button again to exit highlighter mode. You can also change the color of a highlight by clicking the downward-pointing arrow next to “Highlight” and choosing a color. Colors are useful for differentiating different types of highlights. I will use a different color for each of the different people I need to consider.

To add a sticky note to a highlight, simply move your mouse cursor over a highlight. When the little pop-up tab with the pencil on it appears, move the cursor to it and a menu will appear. Choose “Add Sticky Notes”. Now you can type and post a sticky note just like before, but this time it will be tied to the highlighted text.

Turquoise is a fantastic color for interiors. It ranges in colors and tones so it can be paired with a myriad of different colors and metals. While turquoise makes a great accent color, we especially love interior spaces with turquoise walls. Kitchens, bathrooms, dining rooms, living rooms and bedrooms all look fantastic with turquoise walls. Turquoise walls can work in any room in your home. It all comes down to choosing the right color turquoise for your style. Check out these interior spaces with turquoise walls and be inspired!

Vintage pieces can help a room feel more stylish and chic. Plus, depending on where you source your vintage finds, they can be much more economical than buying new. Great design doesn’t have to cost a lot and vintage is a smart way to create great design that feels unique and personal. Look online, at thrift stores and local tag and estate sales for vintage accessories and lighting fixtures to create stylish rooms with a vintage feel.
