The pillow stuffed sham that cushions the seat of one of our rockers...
The "L" of my LOVE frame is a photo of Amanda, napping when she was 16 weeks...
Little sister Courtney, 3-1/2 years later, wearing the same hand-me-down sleeper, now faded from countless washings... She was also 16 weeks in her photo, and she is the V in LOVE...
A french bucket decorated with luscious pink roses sits on an old pink vanity stool in the family room...
One of my favorite pillows from the Simply Shabby Chic collection at Target...
One of the ruffled pillow shams that cover our brick hearth, which we have yet to decide how to permanenently finish...
One of my vintage chenille scatter rugs... I love using the old rugs from the 50's...
Mr. Bluejay, taking one of the peanuts I left for him...
A small bucket of silk hydrangeas in the living room...
The 'secret' is now out! I love kuku coco butter deodorant for the summer. The scent reminds me of the beach! (The little earring dish is from Urban Outfitters if anyone is interested - I love mine!)
My beautiful, vintage Mary garden statue....
... the perfect blue... the perfect chippiness....
She makes my garden sing in blue!
My blue Fenton peacock vase from the days when I was thrifting non-stop, trying to find those Staffordshire dogs!!
And the sweet little Mellin's Infant Formula bottle, also from those thrifting days... I just love the blues!!!

Awesome display of "the blues"!
ReplyDeleteEspecially the Secret!!!!!!! I go for the powder fresh scent myself!!!
M ^..^
Oh great blues in your house. I would love to own them.
ReplyDeleteI'm a pink gal myself but after looking at Romantic Homes blog Cindy inspired me to redo my bedroom in shades of blue. I'm also doing my bathroom in blue and white with touches of black.

I think I love the blue glass bottle best!
ReplyDeleteI love all your blues...but you know me I LOVE blue! Those babies look so much alike! That's just amazing!
ReplyDeleteBeautiful goodies! I love how you dangled earring off that "dish". Hmm... I will have to try that deo. I am using the Jasmine one now! I love everyone's pastels, but I don't have any anymore. My house was pastel about 10 years ago. That's the problem I like everything!

I love the blues you shared---especially the cocky little bluejay enjoying the peanut (I can't believe a chip didn't beat him to it!), the Mary statue and the Fenton vase! Today, we are enjoying a blue sky in our neck of the woods and the heat is on!
ReplyDeleteLove the blues, and I'm glad that the title ended up NOT referring to you being sad!!
ReplyDeleteMy favorite blue that you shared has got to be the pillow sham on the fireplace!!! I've admired that since the first time I saw it!! Simply gorgeous!!
Hugs,
Michele

I love all your blues, Donna~
ReplyDeleteBut that vintage Mary is still my favorite!!
We've got lots of blue jays in our backyard screaming at our cats and I noticed you've got my same favorite deodorant!

I love your photos. You seem to capture the real 'mood' of the word blue! Love the bluebird photo!
ReplyDeleteAmazing how much alike your 2 adorable daughters looked at the same age (they could be twins!!)
ReplyDeleteFor some reason, I seem to have more pink in my decorating, but I really do love blue the best, and you have so many pretty things in blue. I especially love that aqua. Love the pillows and if you ever need a home for that fenton vase...lol.
