You know how sometimes you notice a certain color or a certain piece of furniture
and then start seeing it everywhere?
Like every time you look at a room or a photo or a vignette-
you are drawn to that certain thing or color in it.
This week has been an aqua loving week.
From front doors to shabby beach cottages- aqua is in the spotlight
and is what has been inspiring me around blog land. I thought I would share 10 of my favorite pins this week- you can find links and more over at my board all about Aqua Love at Pinterest.
A stack of green books- I am in.
This is a little bit darker color but I love the details on this window frame- absolutely gorgeous.
Pale teacups edged in gold? Yes, please.
I actually have a very similar set that I will share sometime.
I am loving the pale shade on these cupboards- unexpected and beautiful
Nothing says aqua like a shingled beach cottage trimmed in white
I love the idea of adding a couple simple pieces
like colorful, bold stools to an otherwise white room for a pop
Simple, shabby, chippy
That.glass. gorgeous.
One of my favorites- a bold front door.
One more kitchen-
because- I just love it and especially with that brass hardware
I have a little bit of aqua love going on over here
with those pale bottles I shared recently and
that chippy bench that is
I am thinking Summer might be the perfect time to add a bit more of that dreamy
aqua beauty to our home.
Happy Wednesday

OK, having a tad of aqua envy here. In love with that enchanting window! Last spring I bought a vintage aqua wooden scoop. It is inspiration for all sorts of serving ideas from popcorn to fruit. Thanks for the links. I'm off to visit.

I actually have a chippy aqua bench, although it's tiny. Perhaps I'll post it later. Loving that window! The detail is just magnificent. The aqua on the teacups is lovely too. It's like a whisper. Aqua does work so well with all things chippy and patina-ed (past tense of patina??)

I have to agree…aqua is one of my all-time favorite colors! I have several pops of it in my home..in fact, every time I paint something, I always want to do aqua and have to force myself to use other colors, lol! Your inspiration pictures are beautiful! That window frame, oh.my.gosh!!!!!

I always love your own flower images the best 😉 I have blue-greens in my house, and have for more than twenty years in one form or another. When you love a color, you just have to live with it!!

Lovin' it. This post is making me want to go buy something aqua …or possibly paint something aqua! 🙂

Aqua is absolutely awesome. I definitely will have to incorporate it into my home.

Love both of those kitchens, looks so clean and fresh. The past 2 years, aqua has been creeping into my home also. It's in my wedding china, did a post on it one Christmas.

I was never an aqua person BUT . . . . when we downsized our kitchen counters were aqua . . . . and my hubby is not about to tackle the job of removing them. The kitchen cabinets were installed with the counters and back splash firmly affixed. So . . . I learned to love aqua and started adding it to pieces around the house. I'm glad I can now find accents. Beautiful photos and I love your shabby bench as a photo prop.

Love all of these aqua photos. I did our beach cottage in aqua with blue and green and white. So soothing and restful! Love your bench and the ranunculus! Sigh!
