Hope everyone is having a great holiday weekend!! I have been adding some color to the living room. It all started when i found these gorgeous turquoise curtains at jc penney. I love the color,and i sort of built around them for a starting point. I made a short trip to the attic to see what i could find.I had the lamps that i bought at jc penney years ago so that was good, and the color was perfect.I had the oil painting that i found at the salvation army about five years ago.I did find a few small things at michaels.Just about everything i own is white so i'm on the search for more turquoise.
I bought the solid turquoise pillow at targets. The vase i found at the thrift shop. I just changed the flowers that were in it when i bought it.
This is the oil painting i found at the salvation army thrift shop.
Another attic find that i had.It has just the right colors.
I'm glad i didn't sell this lamps from jc penney.
I had the clock. I bought it at the christmas tree shop.
I made this pillow from a embroidered tea towel that i had.
I'm linking up to Wow Us Wednesdays

Hi Kate,
I love the new colour. It is wonderful. I makes your room look very cheery. You must be a pack rat like me. There is always something to be found hiding away. Enjoy.

Kathy, love the addition of the new color. That embroidered tea towel pillow is my fav.
I love it, Kathy! Mixed with your whites, it has such a nice cool summery feel to it.
I'm loving it Kate but then I'm a color girl. That soft turquoise is just the perfect addition to your beautiful whites. Isn't it amazing what a few found accessories can do. Your blog is inspiring as always. Happy 4th of July. Patty
Well Kate, you've done it again. Created a lovely space using the lovely blues.

Hello Kathy!
I love white...but I love color too especially the colors you show here. Everything is still nice and white ...but I think the color makes the white look even fresher and makes those colors pop. I LOVE that clock you found and what you did to the tea towel. I hope you're enjoying a wonderful 4th of July weekend!

As always Kathy, very pretty! You have such a good decorating eye!~Hugs, Patti
White is dreamy but when combined with the soft blue that is so IN, it is stunning. You have added just the right about of this blue and it looks so soft and soothing for the soul.
So pretty! Don't you love changing accent colors with the seasons? That's what I love to do to keep things fresh. Just like our summer wardrobe, I feel like my house and yard has a summer wardrobe too!
Very pretty! :-)
