Inspiration Blue and White

Hi! We're loving this warm early spring, aren't we!



The beach was beautiful, the colors captured by my camera are so inspiring.
No wonder blue and white or pale tan/khaki are such classics! No just for the home---think of jeans with a white shirt, or pale khaki shorts with a blue chambray shirt.


The colors of spring are cool but not chilly...


Soft blue with a hint of violet..



Navy, bright white, and pale khaki...


Duck egg blue and soft ecru....



...and as the fog rolled in yet again...soft greys---from pearl to mist---and deeper graphite.




On a positive note about my nesting birds...the nests shared last week were promptly bulldozed to oblivion the following dawn but I think perhaps my emails had some effect, because by today the areas with the new replacement nests,






...and all areas where the birds traditionally nest have been left without further plowing and the fences are up.

The tiny birds seemed content and calm...I was so happy.
