Blue and white is a classic combination for home decor. Plates, paints, and fabrics in these two colors elicit timeless calmness.
Blue has been my favorite color for a long time and, for many years, the decor in almost every room in my home has included some shade of blue. Blue and white florals, toiles, and plaids are favorite fabrics and, with careful attention paid to scale, shade, and proportins, can all work together beautifully.
And even when the primary color of a room is not blue, I love accessorizing with it!
But in just the right shade, I love entire walls painted in blue, too.
Consider blue a neutral. Blue and white can conjure images of winter's snow and summer's picnics. It's timeless, and there's a shade of blue that compliments every other color in the rainbow.
Savor peace when surrounded by blue and white.
