more blue + inspiration

I gave my daughter my Studio Violet poster for her room. Wasn't that nice of me? I figure I will actually look at it more here than when it was propped against the wall of my studio.

These colored lanterns are getting a new lease on life too. I bought them a few years back, but somehow they just didn't get used. Now Lucy turns them on when it gets dark and they give the newly blue room a wonderful glow. Isn't it funny how different the blue looks in these two photos? Top photo is more realistic, although I prefer the bottom one.

So, madly surfing the web this week, as a respite from painting walls here's what I found inspiring:

Shabd's spring collection via Frolic. It's just soooo pretty.

This French farmhouse via Katy Elliot.

This wonderful Dutch lady, Ingrid Jansen and her amazing home and shop via Bloesem and SF Girl by Bay.

And this last one may be my favorite, this dear little blog from Finland, Anna Emilia.

Have a nice weekend, everyone!
