blue + white

I'm pretty consistent with my love of creamy white trim and soft neutral walls. These bold navy blue walls are darn striking though aren't they? I think I like them so much because they are paired with a great white..lovely aren't they? via

three things

I have a new obsession with blue and white, so to see this gorgeous image, oh my. This and the light and bright entry are from the southern cookbook of Gina Knox and her new approach to regional cuisine. And below, well, the shades of beige + natural wood are so me.. it was instant love. All images from here

welcome

oh that's good-

what a great find, and cheap too!

Sweet little 99 cent bowls from China Town. They are perfect for snacks. ( and my girls like eating out of new and interesting dinnerware finds they pick out! )

and yes, I use Ikea dinner ware.. it's white and inexpensive.. don't care if it breaks, chips or scratches. It's very easily replaceable!

great prints-

LOVE these origami based prints by Field Trip on etsy. I could definitely find a spot for bloom in my home!

blue & white, a new ginger jar

I was so lucky to win the first ever giveaway ( the gorgeous ginger jar you are seeing ) hosted by the lovely Alexandra at Rustic Rooster Interiors! I am loving the small infusions of blue & white into my home. It sits in my favorite place, and a spot where I spend alot of time. Glances at it make me think of all the wonderful friendships I have made through blogging.. thanks Alexandra.
And I promise I will get you a shot of the rooster on our vehicle.. he's a long way from California!
