A-Z of Me: Blue Hues


Blues and greens are my favorite colors. I'm just automatically drawn to the colors in that they are soothing and beautiful to me. It's like bringing nature inside with these colors. I can't get enough. Almost all the rooms in my house  or apartments over the years were painted a hue of blue. I sometimes get self conscious about this so I try to add in pops of yellow or pink to brighten things up, but it makes me feel like a faker. I have a hard time knowing where to start adding new colors because everything pretty much matches already.

Lately, I've been all about adding bright pops of white to really bring out the colors in both my decorating and crochet. It looks so clean and fresh!

  1. I totally noticed that you love those shades of blues and greens! Your house always looks lovely, and so does your crocheting.

    I really like this series!

  2. Turquoise gets me every time. And purple is my favorite color followed closely by obnoxiously bright greens. I always gravitate towards stuff like that.

    Once we purchased our house though I went bonkers with color after living in white walled apartments for so long. Our bedroom has a bright orange wall at the head of our bed and the rest are tan. I picked bright blues for the kitchen and hallway. And bright turquoise for the toddler room. The only one I want to change now is our living room which is a light shade of yellow, which is nice, but we painted it a matte instead of semi-gloss so it just doesn't have the same brightness throughout the day AND it is a pain in the butt to clean crayon and dog drool off of. :|

    I have my favorite colors but I broke out of my color shell with this house and it has been fun. :)
