Bits of Blue


Faded blue, china blue, french blue. . . . For a blue Monday, or any other day. I like it up close and personal, and mixed with lots of white. Curl up with blue on a blustery day and plan your spring garden, or a summer vacation. Or envision a dreamy trip of a lifetime. Portugal? Italy? France? The English countryside? Wherever you go, blue will be there. . . .







The antique saucer from my favorite French latte cup.




A vintage linen table cloth with Johnson Bros. teacups.




Antique transferware lid.





The French cup.




I love a hue that whispers. . . .



And invites you closer in . . . .





A vintage embroidered  B is for blue too. . . .




































Bonny bits of blue for you!
I hope your week is of to a great start!

Jacqueline

    My favorite photo is the seventh down of the tray set up with the sweet napkin older. Charming and beautiful.

    That is a splendid way to hold a tooth brush. The patio table is looking fine too.

    Jacqueline,
    Such gorgeous blue hues. Against the textured white vintage fabrics, blue made my heart skip. Lovely post!
    Fondly,
    Pat

    Just beautiful Jacqueline! I have always had a soft spot for that particular shade of blue and the china pattern is so vintage and cozy looking, it was truly a pleasure seeing it!
