I still miss those. I have old blue and white plates and tiles from Netherlands, along with blue and white ceramic coffee spoons. Blue and white all over the place as furniture, blue and white dishtowels, and the piece de resistance? I had a blue and white themed wedding.Nursapaloozahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03592570219279412632noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-39470893480250619222009-01-26T10:28:00.000-05:002009-01-26T10:28:00.000-05:00Lovely - I just discovered your blog.

Maybe balance the blue and white with darker print pillows (more blue than white, tiny print)just like you balance a painting. I agree with Meredith on painting the table white, but I happen to love blue & white with black furniture, too.

I love the ideas you have and always prefer a room pulled together over time anyhow. I keep magazine clippings of my favorite rooms in clear sheet protectors and in black marker write on the page and circle the details of why I like the room. You like the plates, the teapot, french details...second hand shopping might do the trick. At least you can fill your place with GORGEOUS art.<BR/><BR/>BTW The chair watercolor you sent is for the house we will buy when we sell this one. It will help inspire the living room.

You need to get a room journal together. put in what you have and go searching for things you would like in there. Find things you like and then find a way of doing it cheaper if it is to expensive. I have a twin floral comforter over my large floral couch because of all the animals in the house and I can wash it easier. It matches pretty good and I dont think it looks bedroomy at all. I also have plaid curtains with florals and other patterns that I think makes it feel cozy. Happy decorating. You have a good eye for things I am sure it will come out great.Cris, Artist in Oregonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15067969984221375853noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-26546687.post-46211427520411772072009-01-22T12:46:00.000-05:002009-01-22T12:46:00.000-05:00I would accent it with natural linen pieces and na...I would accent it with natural linen pieces and natural stone accessories.
