Anja's Blue Vignettes

A great color year round, blue is a calming color that feels organic and trustworthy. Anja's blue palettes feel spring-like but can translate into the seasons with alternating decor...

Using wallpaper for most of her vignettes, each pattern looks refreshing and vintage at the same time. Here, Robin's egg blue feels light and cheery while the deep blues feel classic and calm. Even when Anja incorporates a patterned yellow wallpaper, the blue can't help but pop out from its background. Paired with pink, dark brown, yellow and red, blue is a great choice to enhance your decor. And if you're non-committal side can't go through with hanging wallpaper, painting a door is a quick and easy way to bring blue into your world.

I agree Chris. Have you ever seen Wings of a Dove? It has the most beautiful blues throughout the movie, I remember the first time I saw it in the theater I knew I had to rent it just to study the blues and have watched it more than 7 times or so.

I too have blue vignettes in my house.

I'm looking for fabric similar to the wallpaper in image 4 to make into a tablecloth. Any suggestions?
