A little blue and white……


The other day as I looked around the living room I felt like the
coffee table could use a little color…..
ginger jar4


I found this really pretty blue and white ginger jar……
It was just the perfect size and
complimented the other blue and white pieces I already had in the room.
GINGER JAR 001
I bought the white piece of coral at Homegoods a few weeks back when we were in KC.
It was $22 which is a steal when you consider how
much acrylic blocks sell for all on their own not including the piece of coral.

Have a great week my friends!!!!

Adds so much character! It highlights your gorgeous wall color. What is the name of the paint color? We are building a house right now & are looking for a whole-house color. We've decided to go with a light blue/light grey-blue. Love the effect with the hardwoods!

I like this, Des! And I am in love with your coffee table. I have a neutral living room and I use a bit of pale aqua/blue as an accent. :)

Beautiful ginger jar, Des! It looks great on your coffee table (which I still love, by the way!) I got several blue and white pieces, mostly vases and bowls, from The Bombay Co. right before they went out of business. I should bring them out and use them more often. Hope you enjoy your evening!

Hi, Des! Shirley from Housepitality Designs told me you live in the KC area. I do, too! In Lee's Summit! Grew up in KC. It's good to "meet" you! I love knowing there are other bloggers right here in the general vicinity!

Your home is beautiful! It has a relaxed yet elegant style that I can really appreciate. I love those transom windows above the staircase and the dining room entry. Very cool! Adds a lot of character!

Happy Wednesday!

That piece of coral is so pretty, Deserae. Don't ya just love Home Goods? I actually went there today and bought my first Christmas décor. You may have seen it. It's a white snow globe with four red cardinal birds on a tree branch. I just loved it.

It's always a pleasure seeing bits of your home.

love,
