Have an enjoyable safe trip. Here is one more idea that you could do that may increase the odds of keeping your new flowers alive under intense sun exposure - acclimate your newly purchased flowers for a week or two in the original nursery containers and at he same spot as the hanging planters under like growing conditions before repotting or transplanting them. Transplants (and seedlings) are vulnerable and very sensitive to external changes in light/wind/heat/water even just with a foot of difference in relocation and without direct sun exposure in my experience. When I start to see some wilting (due to more loss of moisture on top by the leaves than is taken in by the roots) in new transplants and always in shade first, I sometimes have to partially protect the top wilting portions of large newly transplanted plants in light-weight small clear plastic boxes or enclose smaller transplants entirely in glass jars in the new shady location for a week. Moving and gardening in steps help the flowers avoid and slow some transplant shock and moisture loss even when they do not have the scortching sunlight to contend with.

Light box with a couple florescent tubes on each side running vertical with the front of the tubes obscured by the 'frame'. Paint the back of the box the whitest flat white you can find. A daylight color tube often looks best, but you may want to try other CRI tubes depending on the colors in the glass panel. A daylight and a couple incandescent bulbs will make a very accurate 'daylight'.' This combination was used for many years to judge color balance in photography.

I have a day bed coming on Friday and I got a chase that looks a bit Victorian just randomly in the middle right now and a pub style table that I just painted white to also put somewhere in there. But I want to add bright color decor, lime green, turquoise, orange accents and keep the big pieces daybed, chase, table and curtains light and creamy colors to make as comfy as possible.

And would you mind an unsolicited comment about the length of the drapes - would it be possible to lower the curtain rods approximately four inches until they skim the floor? Or, better yet, are they available in the next size longer? Then the rod could be hung close to the top of the wall and it would make your ceilings look higher. Also, if it were still possible to consider purchasing more panels, having double panels on each side of the windows would give the drapes more presence. If this were possible and if the rods could be extended 8 to 12 inches past each side of the window, the light and views wouldn’t be blocked.
