- Inspiration for my palette:
- This is address #21 for us (and LAST). We chose to make our home near the ocean Since blue is also our favorite color we used coastal colors in many of the rooms. I think blue has a very calming affect when looking at it. I also painted the ceiling blue. I want your eyes to look up as well as around when you enter each room. All rooms also have different types of ceilings and all are painted in colors.
- Colors used in my room
- I used Sherwin Williams Resolute Blue, Vast Sky and White
- Tips for using color successfully
- Don't be afraid to use color. Color reflects moods and personality. As a sewer and quilter I love color. I've always tried to live by my philosophy of "Anything worth doing is worth over doing"! This also applies to color. Color will give you a reaction or else it is boring.

The blues are fabulous - great for creating an impression of clean and freshness.

Twenty-one addresses! I'm guessing foreign service or military.
Beautiful rug!
That ceiling is crazy good. I too favor blue hues over any others..nicely done.
Could be the oil and gas :-D i know what it is like
Totally in love! Got the similar rug. The colours are truly gorgeous.
My favoite part was the ceiling. Other than that not really a fan of the decor.
Beautiful colours, and I love that rug.
This room is elegant and calming!
The entry way is amazing. The entire room is pulled together with a Coastal Vibe. It would be wonderful to sit there with a chilled glass of wine, looking out of those gorgeous windows!
I love the way the blue makes the room pop. Look like an inviting atmosphere.
Love this room...it came out so beautifully! Wish it was in my home.
This room is awesome. Stylish, classy and comfy. I really like the guardian of the stairs. Nice touch!
