Seeing Pink and Blue for Spring

Hello Friends! I hope you all had a marvelous weekend! Though the weather was still a bit nippy in our part of the world, the sun made a whole world of difference for me! I truly can't wait until Spring!

And because I feel excited about Spring, let me share with you today our Living room for this season.
I went with Pink and Blue color scheme and I hope you like it and bring some fun Spring Decor inspiration for you all ...







I have to give a huge shout out to one of my favorite artist and IG friend, GINA JULIAN, for this marvelous new original art work I have. It's called "Carried By The Crowd" and was really the jumping off point for my Spring decor inspiration!

See how gorgeous it is?!
Gina is a fantastic artist, and I will talk more about her work on a later post because I know her  and her art is definitely someone to watch and follow. You can see more of Gina's masterpieces HERE.





You obviously noticed the big move of the Juju hat from the nursery to here. I will explain to you more in detail why it had to leave the nursery on another post, since it requires that much attention all together .

Aren't you even more curious now, why all the fuss??? Let's just say, this Juju hat, as gorgeous as it is, brings something into your home that designers have not been sharing yet, as far as I know, and I will share it with you.... ;-)

Simple Spring Mantel





As you probably noticed, I brought a lot of my PINK milk glass out to blend in with my blue and white chinoiserie collection, and I think, they work well together!

I hope you enjoyed this short tour, and I hope you go check out Gina Julian's work. I know for sure this art work of hers that I own, won't be my last!

Join me this Thursday, as I go back to the closet again, for something I love talking about - ORGANIZING!


Have a Great Week Everyone!

    You did a magnificent job sweet girl with your spring décor and the pop of pink from that lovely artwork goes perfectly with your blue and white collection, that I see it growing in every post. The Juju hat looks amazing there.. who knew!
    I'm pinning this post for the pink touches I love.

    So beautiful for Spring! You have such a knack for using accessories in a new and fresh way, like the little mirror as a tray on your coffee table. OK, dying to know about the Juju! I haven't had any problems with mine... (or at least not that I know of!).

    I love the pink and blue combination. To me, it is also a nod to the 80's because I remember my moms house was all decorated in pink and blue back then! Beautiful!

    Vel, adding the pink into this room is wonderful! The room is already so pretty but the little pops of pink are fresh and springy. Your new artwork is perfect too.

    Thanks for sharing with us at Thoughts of Home on Thursday. :)

    Everything looks wonderful, but I am most struck by the gorgeous wall of windows. And, those upper windows are fabulous.

    Thanks for sharing your lovely home at SYC.

    I find it very interesting that your decor began with that gorgeous work of art and you really managed to keep things colour coordinated.
