It seems fitting to be thinking blue in January... I've been away from the blog for awhile - had a moment or two of questioning the whole thing... Got all weird and existential and thought too much about purpose, audience, voice and blah blah blah. But after some time passed, I stopped and realized I just plain missed it (and you), so 'the only thing I knew how to do was to keep on keepin on'.
I've been thinking of ways I'd like to incorporate blue into the design plan of our new house. I save images that I might not immediately know what about them I like, I just know that I do. Here are some I've been smitten with lately. No rhyme or reason, they're just purdy.
Sweet little bright bedroom. The chair is the perfect scale and the color is so fresh.
This powder blue cabinet with cream walls and furniture creates a much softer feeling. I just love natural linen with just about any color blue.
Great beachy bedroom.
These pillows are by les indiennes. Mixed patterns, but same colors.
The former event planner in me looks at this photo and thinks how fantastic it would be for a party! This look could easily duplicated (in any color or in several!) with inexpensive, unpainted furniture from Ikea and a visit to Cost Plus.
Beautiful color combo for a bedroom.
I would personally not be able to go this bold in a living room, but the color would be amazing in a powder room.

This bedroom is designed by Windsor Smith using Peter Dunham's Samarkand fabric in a big way. This fabric comes in many color ways and is one of my all time favorites.
Have a great week and GO 49'ers!!!!
