Fifteen Beautiful Blue and White Home Decor Accents

Apparently, I’m not just obsessed with blue and white porcelain  – these days I can’t get enough of blue and white home decor in general! Here’s a round up of a few of my faves:

!function(d,s,id){var e, p = /^http:/.test(d.location) ? ‘http’ : ‘https’;if(!d.getElementById(id)) {e = d.createElement(s);e.id = id;e.src = p + ‘://’ + ‘widgets.rewardstyle.com’ + ‘/js/lookbook.js’;d.body.appendChild(e);}if(typeof(window.__lookbook) === ‘object’) if(d.readyState === ‘complete’) {window.__lookbook.init();}}(document, ‘script’, ‘lookbook-script’);

Summer Reading
girl on a beach reading a book
 
I packed a copy of My Paris Dream on our trip to Florida last week and it was the perfect plane to beach read.
 
Now I’m missing the escapism that a good book provides-even more so “post vacation.”.
 
Like many of you, I’m able to devote more time to a good book in the summer months when life slows down a lot around here. 
 
Next up I’ll be reading Secrets Of A Charmed Life, as it came highly recommended by a few friends of mine….what’s on your summer reading list?
 

I’d love to know!PS: A few more great reads here.

For the most part, this really just involved getting the art that we had previously ordered the last time we were down finally up on all those bare white walls.

I had agonized over what to hang over our gray couch in the living room (seen below) for quite some time.

The expansive white wall there is the major focal point of our home’s open living plan. I

‘m so glad that I waited until I found just the right two pieces and didn’t rush to fill up the space with any old thing (as I was tempted to do a few times for the sake of just getting it done).

The take away advice here is that it always pays to wait until something really speaks to you.

Now that the walls are no longer bare, the place is really starting to come together and feel like a home.
