BLOCKS OF BLUE!

I love the color blue. I also love seeing solid blocks of uninterrupted blue in home decor. Here are some fab photos of blocks of blue used to decorate. It works in bedrooms, living rooms, on walls, on furniture like chairs and even on stairs. No need for busy prints or patterns when it comes to blue. Just a solid punch of it here or there or all over works!

Any shade blue is good too…turquoise, dark blue, royal blue, aqua, cobalt blue, teal, baby blue, navy blue, powder blue and of course Tiffany Blue…they all can make a room complete.

Try a bold block of solid blue in your house, home, apartment, country cottage or city loft…and send me a picture…would love to see how it looks!

Worn turquoise stairs

My favorite of these blue photos is the staircase in aqua blue (or is that turquoise…never know the difference). There is something so beachy rustic chic about these worn stairs and the color. I love the idea of using blue on the floor!

Which is your favorite?

    I have to say that I love those stairs too! A close second is the turquoise wall with that fab black and white clock. Also love the bright yellow in that photo. What a fun room!

    I like the Lynn Morgan Design picture the best. It’s such a great shot especially at that angle looking towards the fireplace. A light and summery looking room!

    I think my favorite is the livingroom with the blue built in. I love the idea of painting a built in cabinet a fun color. I also think it’s fun to walpaper the back panels inside the shelving. LOVE blue! I don’t have much of it in my house…I think I need to change that.

    I really like what Lynn Morgan Design did with that living room. Just enough blue to really make it pop. Thanks for sharing these pictures.

    In our last post, our featured house had wonderful Carolina Blue Floors throughout. It gives the house an outside–in porch feel that we love.

    Love the Stairs! Looks like the same turquoise that native Americans use around windows and doors to keep evil spirits from coming inside the home. Beautiful!

Martha's Vineyard house tour part 1. Here is a tou Martha's Vineyard house tour part 1. Here is a tour of the rental house we had in Edgartown on MV this summer. A new build about 5 minutes from the center of town. 3500 square feet, 4 bedrooms, 4 baths and a pool. House bad that beach house or coastal style decor. We were the first to rent it. What do you think? Would you rent thjs? Do you want to see the bedrooms?
It was our 2nd summer on the Vineyard. Next year, we are renting for the month. Same house. 💃🏾 I would love a bit bigger so more people could come but finding good rentals is hard on the Vineyard. Feel very lucky to have spent a magical few weeks in this spot.
