Tired of the browns and grays and whites of winter? So am I!<\/p>\n

I\u2019m looking to get a jump on some brilliant color outside. I want to see color outside my windows, outside in my garden and outside on my deck. I\u2019ll bet you are too.<\/p>\n

Bright splashes of color greet me when the trees are bare and the shrubs covered with white snow. It is so cheery to see in the dead of winter. Seeing color reduces my stress. It probably does for you too. That\u2019s why gardens are so relaxing.<\/p>\n

\"ChromaLuxe<\/a>

ChromaLuxe exterior aluminum prints hang outside in my garden all year long popping color when I most need it.<\/p><\/div>\n

During the spring and summer, I coordinate the color of my plantings with the colors in my art. It gives me a very creative palette of colors to work with. It adds to the fun of gardening.<\/p>\n

I hang my aluminum art on the garage so I can see flowers all year from the windows in my home, I hang the art on my deck where we entertain and select art that color coordinates with my outdoor furniture. As a garden designer, I\u2019ve designed woodland walks around my home and studio and even hang art on the trees for when people wander around on my garden tours.<\/p>\n

I tried a lot of products outdoors in my own garden on Long Island in New York where we get snow and ice in the winter and lots of heat in the summer. I found that not all aluminum is created equal since much of it warped in the extreme temperatures. Then I tried the ChromaLuxe brand of exterior grade aluminum. I\u2019ve tested these prints throughout all the seasons and they have flourished in my garden for years.<\/p>\n

In my video, you can see some of the ways I\u2019ve displayed my art in the garden and also the gardens of some of my happy customers. Take a look and be inspired.<\/p>\n
