Splash of Blue

Beaches Bloom under a Breezy Billowing Sky of Blue.

Happy Summer Everyone!

Someday, I'd like to dulpicate this kitchen and make it my own.

I love the crisp white cuboards, dotted with bright primary color accents. It's decorated perfectly for summer with all that cheerful citrusy color. And wouldn't it be easy ( apart from the lime green counter tops) and so fun in this kitchen to sort of

change things up as the seasons turned?

What does your dream kitchen look like?

A little Sugar and Spice for this Inspiration Friday .

Little girls rooms...if you ask me, they can get away with a lot. It's not every room in your house that you can say " the frillier the better." The little attic bedroom I grew up in has walls covered with flowing blue ribbons and trailing pink roses. Every inch of it is pretty. Oh the hours of pretending and daydreaming that went on in that room. My Mom went out of her way to make it a room fit for a princess. And I am so tickled that she did, not only for the endless pleasure that it brought me and all my girlfriends but also because someday it will be Annabelle's room when we come to visit. And I can just see her now, with paper dolls spread out all over the rosie bed, any little girls paradise.

Here you are then, Girly Rooms Galore:

And while we are dreaming, why not one more outfit from H.A. : :)

Inspiration Friday.

{ Flea Market Fancy }

Flea Market Style is perfect for those of you who have a knack for always finding a deal. What could be more fun than to search high and low for the perfect vintage/second hand things to fill your home at garage sales, flea markets, thrift or antique stores? Think of it as a more relaxed way to do chic . I appreciate the elements of character that highlight Flea Market Style. It's a fresh approach to recyling and an often more afforable way to dress up a home. Undoubtedly a pleasing to the eye, often showy way to prove one man's junk is truly another man's treasure.
