Budget Friendly Blue White Home Decor Finds

 

I LOVE blue and white decor. My own house has several rooms devoted to this forever favorite color combo.

In fact, one of my most popular Pinterest boards is dedicated to just this.

My good friend, who knows I always have my on eye something new, recently requested a blue and white home decor round up post for the blog.

She was looking for a few blue and white pieces. However, she threw in the towel due to a long renovation project which led to decor decision fatigue (it’s a real thing apparently)  – so I was more than happy to oblige!

Hope you love these picks!

PS: Even more blue and white lamps.

PPS: A home tour full of beautiful blue and white inspo.

Our Beach House Renovation: A few more recent updates with before and afters

Beach House Renovation Project Updates:

 

We’re finally making some real progress on our beach house renovation! It’s so exciting to see our vision come together after all this time.

The most noticeable improvement right now is in the main room. As you can see (above)  the book case and brick wall have been painted white. The brick still needs another coat of white paint. It’s Benjamin Moore OC – 151 White. This post has a lot more beautiful white interior paint colors if you’re on the hunt. The fireplace will be painted black inside, but I feel like you can now get the gist of this.

I’ve included a few before photos below as well.

The New Canaan Cares Home Tour!

 

The 27th annual New Canaan Cares Home Tour will be taking place next month. I’m excited to announce our home will be part of this year’s tour!

If you’re local than you probably already know what a great organization New Canaan Cares is! I feel so lucky to have such a supportive program right here in our town. So when we were approached a few months ago to be part of this year’s fund raising home tour on May 16th, we were more than happy to oblige.

For those unfamiliar with the work New Canaan Cares does, in short it is an independent, non-profit community organization whose purpose is to advance the health and well-being of youth and families. New Canaan Cares provides responsive educational programs that support and strengthen parenting skills, positive youth development, and healthy lifestyles – free-of-charge.

The Home Tour is CARES’ major fundraising event with 100% of its proceeds directly supporting youth leadership programs, parent workshops and health and wellness programs for the whole community. By purchasing a ticket, you will help New Canaan Cares to continue offering these innovative presentations free of charge!

PS: If you’re unable to make the tour, you can see more of our home here and here!
