Once you've been around here for a while you will see a pattern. I love the color blue....all shades--I don't discriminate! Light aqua all the way to dark teal...you will see many pieces in this color. I'm warning you now.
I found this piece at one of my favorite places--Goodwill! It was a "Blue Tag Special"-50% off! I ended up paying $19.00 for this solid wood hutch. It had 3 different types of handles--Three of them were eagles--yes, like the bird. Who does that???

A steal at $19.00! |

Love the detail |
I gave her a light sand and then primed her. She received two coats of Rustoleum Spray Paint in Aqua. The same color as my sisters side tables and dressers . I love the coverage that spray paint gives. If you haven't tried spray paint dont be afraid! Just keep spraying in a continuous motion side to side. Start and end OFF of the piece.
Sometimes I just paint the old hardware to give it a new life, but these needed to be changed. I opted for these crystal knobs from Home Depot.
The square white plates are from Crate & Barrel and the awesome funky plates were a wedding gift from a great friend. They are Villeroy & Boch and I adore them!! I love the color, shape and everything about them. I picked up the blue plate at a student pottery sale at Penn.
Those beautiful hydrangea's are my valentines flowers. Simple and beautiful! Love it!
My lovely neighbor gave us this beautiful handmade bowl as a wedding gift. I absolutely love it and its one of our favorite gifts.
My hubs picked up this deer skull at an antique store. I like the look, but I still won't pick it up...I make him move it and clean it.
