The Bold and Beautiful!

From the French Quarter street performers and Mr. Okra, to the Roman Candy Man, NOLA is full of fun and unique characters. The same goes for the beautiful historic homes. Only in New Orleans can someone have a bright pink, orange, purple, or fluorescent green home and not stick out like a sore thumb! Believe it or not, the homes are bold, but they fit right in. I took a walk in my neighborhood and took pictures of some bold, beautiful, and uniquely-painted homes. The crazy colored houses are just another quirky characteristic I love about this city!

One of my favorite houses. I love the color combo.





This is an example of a bold accent color. The bright purple looks great on this home.


I saved the best for last! Take a look at this little house. It is adorable and remains me of a folk art painting.
