Ahh writing. I love to do it, but lately have not been inspired to do so (have you seen how long ago my last post was...?). So, here I am back again. And this is about the colour blue.
It is one of my favourites, ESPECIALLY in interiors. Blue and browns feature predominantly in our own space, so here is an homage to blue, and also a way to get inspired during our ongoing renos.
The blue that speaks to me most is definitely in the muted shades, darker and more grey blues. Petrol and stormy blues are what I like to be surrounded by. The blue of the season though would have to be royal blue. I am seeing it everywhere atm, I like it, but too loud for my taste. (Although I do love that dress).
So it is back to duller blues for my house anyways. Years ago I saved dining chairs from the council cleanup, they were a mess and I had to go to a vinyl factory to find the correct tone of blue (apparently mostly used for marine applications) but I'm very glad I did, 10 years later they still look great, even if I only did get to finish 4 of the 6 chairs I have, much to husband's chagrin.

Now winter is setting in and I am on the lookout for a door blanket as a temporary heat trap measure, these Mexican Blankets on eBay look the ticket:

And don't worry babe, I will finish the last two chairs; eventually.
