I am loving this color more than ever...
For years I had this gorgeous shade of blue with just a touch of lavender in our living room. Then I tried a grayish blue, which was also lovely.
{We'll skim over the two color mistakes of mustard yellow and bright green, and the very short-lived butter yellow...These did not work well in the living room.}
You see, I thought I was tired of blue.
But the funny thing is: I really wasn't. In the end, I just replaced those particular blues with aquas in the rooms of my home...
And although I still gravitate toward the softer aqua hues, I must also admit a renewal of attraction to my favorite cottage blues...
So simple and lovely...
And even the smallest touch of it makes me smile.
But I simply cannot leave aqua out of the equation...
And that is all right, because now I know that I don't have to!
Both are sweet colors, and both fit just fine in our little cottage...
I can have my cake, and eat it, too! ;)
Now, why all this talk of blue exactly? I have blue on my mind, I guess.
More on just why next time!
I hope you have a lovely, beautiful Friday, dear friends!
Much love,
Jenni

sigh....I love blue too. :) There are just so many pretty shades of it and so much to do with it. I can't wait to see what you are working on. :)

me too. Ever since entering the new year I have had blue on my mind and in my heart and it is flowing out of me into my painting and decorating.
Those blues are so pretty Jenni! I love the aqua and the cottage blue as well. I don't think you can beat pale powder blue, grey and white together.... Lovely! Hope you are well and life is good. God bless dear friend. X
Good morning, Jenni!
This post is so easy on the eyes.
Our main bath and guest room have a touches of blue. The bath that you featured in this post is most amazing.
I hope that you weathered the stormy weekend well, my dear friend!
Have a lovely week!
