I love the soft, muted color tones of blues and greens. They have a warm, rich look and feel and they are so pretty!

Bringing in this color palette through photography and vintage accessories is a great way to add a pop of color to an otherwise neutral room.

I love coming across vintage and antique pieces that have been painted these beautiful colors. They are so perfect for a beach cottage.

  9. Those muted blues and greens are delightful!

    I simply adore the color blue...in all of its magnificent shades. In fact, I just had my kitchen and family room repainted a calming light blue last week. I am planning to slipcover my sofa and denim chair in neutrals and some soft muted tones as accent pieces here and there.

    Some before and after pics of my rooms are posted on my blog...as you can see, I just can't get away from blue!

    Hope all is going well,
    Valerie
