Happy Friday! How has your week been? Our week has had it's usual ups and downs and somehow it felt like a hard week, so we are glad it's Friday :)
I was inspired by this picture I found on Pinterest...
... to capture a few blue and white images around our home ('cause you know I just can't get enough blue and white!).
1. These books often find their way onto our mantel...
...because they belong to my husband and they are small, vintage, blue, and add just the right touch of "boy" to our decor (Note to self: see if I can find some more!). The glass mosaic candle holder came from Big Lots a few years ago.
2. This is in our youngest's room...
Two-tone blue paint job with molding in between. The picture was a happy find in the As Is section of our local IKEA - $0.25 for not one but two of these fun vehicle pictures (frames I had already)! You just never know what you will find...
3. This pitcher came from Target a long time ago...
... back when we still lived in Canada and every trip to the U.S. included a stop at Target :)
4. This is in our ensuite bathroom.
The plate is from my collection. The frame lost its glass years ago, so it got a coat of white spray paint. Note to self: don't use satin finish paint on a textured wall (and don't get me started on the issue of textured walls)!
5. Just keeping it real...
Yes, there is even blue and white in the laundry room - nope, this was not staged, these happen to be the shirts that are waiting to be ironed. The walls are striped - just waiting for some beadboard for the bottom half of the walls and then I can show you the rest of it :)
And I got through that whole post without any pictures of blue-and-white slipcovers or pillows :)
Do you have a favorite color combination? Do you use it in your home, or is it more likely to be found in your closet?
Have a great weekend!
