That's too funny! I was just telling my husband a couple weeks ago that I was thinking of changing over to an aqua blue… so beautiful! And would look wonderful with pops of orange!

A room in that shade of blue would be wonderful.

Haven't been to any yard sales recently. I need to be sending things out of my house not bringing them is so I'm restraining myself from temptation.

I just love this blue. When I was in Paris earlier this year, I got a cute water sprayer for plants that was this gorgeous shade of blue glass.

It is the most beautiful colour I've ever seen, so I definitely love your idea of painting a whole room with it!

Cheers,

Sandhya

I love the jar, I was tempted by one like it. Hmmm…I need a friend to get me one!

The blue is lovely and I am SO excited about your kitchen remodel! Mess and all, it will end up lovely!

what a great blue jar!

My latest and greatest yard sale (actually an estate sale) find is a neat-o blue chair that really completes my living room.

Sandy, I love that shade of blue, it would be great with dark (browish?) cabinets. I have to tell you something I thought was really cool looking at your pictures…I have the SAME dining room chairs! I bought them (4 side chairs) at a thrift store for $35. I love them, so pretty.

Oh girl my house is a mess compared to yours and we're not remodeling…wait…I guess we are gutting a room in the basement, but it's not the kitchen!! It's my goal this week to have two rooms at least that look clutter free :0)
Love that wall hanging and the blue is very cool…

My best recent finds were: a recumbent exercise bike for $25 (I've been wanting one forEVER), 6 padded hangers in the original packaging for 25 cents, and a pair of sterling silver cross earrings for a dollar! Love yard sales! And I like your blog a lot!

BTW, I'm using your recipe to cook purple hull peas tonight. Only difference is I'm using salt pork instead of packaged bacon.
