Blue and White Inspiration

As anyone who's been to my house can attest, I like blue. A lot. I used to think that a blue and white kitchen was so cliché, but over the years and moves, I've found that not only can I NOT resist it, but a blue and white color scheme blends with just about any kitchen -- blonde wood, dark wood, country wallpaper with pink flowers, mostly white, stainless steel appliances, and even that avocado green kitchen we had in our first German apartment.

So that's my inspiration. My vast collection of blue and white pottery; in particular, that blue and white classic -- Delft.

This is the kind of blue and white I love. So clean and crisp. I like assertive blues, not wimpy blues.

Assertive Blues - sounds like a name for a quilt...

I like almost any blue - wimpy or in your face!! Well, maybe not baby blue.

Gerrie said...

Unless it is on a baby!!

Yup, you and I Gerrie are definitely related on some level. ;-) Although Terry is probably a cousin or something not too far removed -- we agree on a whole lot of things.
