I have a serious crush on the color blue lately. Before I got married and had a home to decorate...and before I started reading blogs...I never really liked the color blue in my color scheme. Over the last several years as my style has evolved...I have grown to love cool blue tones in home decor. Our living and dining area walls are a gray-ish blue (Sherwin Williams, Front Porch), and I am so in love with the feel of this open space. Today I wanted to share some of my favorite blue inspired rooms and some great blue accessories for the home.
I love all the perfectly mixed shades of blue in this room...and the ottoman is pretty amazing.

I would love to live in this Hampton's home. The blue pillow mixed with the crisp white is so beautiful.

Now for some great blue accessories...
I am in love with this modern blue and white rug from Rugs Usa, and would love to make a place for it in our home. I think it would be great in the guest room under our white bed!
I would love to cuddle up with this Serena & Lily throw blanket...I really like the herringbone pattern too!
I also love this art work from Z Gallerie. I am looking for a painting to go on our wall on the left side of the TV, and this would be perfect.

I know that this isn't technically a home accessory (althought they would look pretty sititing on my desk!) How cute are these blue greek key notecards from Design Darling?!? I love this boutique and look forward to new arrivals every few weeks!
Thanks for stopping by and following along. I love reading your comments every day and getting to know all of you. Your sweet coments really mean so much! Have a wonderful day!
I would love to live in that Hamptons house too and I need that rug!
ReplyDeletemmm...love those greek key cards. These are all gorgeous rooms!
ReplyDeleteI love hints of blue, too! It's one of those colors that makes me smile a bit. Love that S&L throw!
ReplyDeletei think the touches of blue in all of the rooms just make them so peaceful and serene...maybe because it reminds me of water or the beach? i love that piece of artwork too!
ReplyDeletei never have given blue much of a chance in my home decor scheme, but after seeing this i might have to change my tune :) i adore that blue ottoman.. and that rugs usa rug needs to be in my next home (you know, in like 5 years!!). great finds love!

ReplyDeleteI agree! Blue is so pretty...have you seen Young House Love's new blue barstools today? Check them out, I think you'll love them!
ReplyDeleteThat's so funny...because growing up my mom's favorite color was blue so she always used blue around our house to decorate. I of course gave her a hard time because she rarely used color and if she did, it was blue. Wellll fast forward to the present, and guess who's using blue all over her house too?! Me! hah My master bedroom and bath are painted blue and my living room is accented with blue...and now mom gets to give me a hard time.
ReplyDeleteI love that first picture - so amazing! We did a blue theme in our master bedroom - so relaxing! :) Happy Wednesday!
ReplyDeleteOh I know! I went through a red phase with my decor when I first got married, but now I'm ready to transition to some serene blue...namely turquoise! Have you ever checked out House of Turquoise? It is a great collection of blue room inspirations.
ReplyDeleteLove love the touch of blue!
