First of all
THANK YOU for cheering for our Dutch
soccer team. We made it to the
final :-)
Let's just
wait what hubby will do with all the bunting he still has.( i want no part of it,
seriously)
Here the
weather is fantasic and with that i always think about one of my favorite colors
turqoise. I think this color represents
Summer .
I saw this
house for sale in
London. I would be too chicken to
paint my house like this. But oh,
iloveit.The combination with gold is so beautiful.
I'm a real
coward when it comes to colors. This is the
most i would dare for our house.
Turqoise, white, sand and a touch of pale pink.
LOve this pale
turqoise union jack pillow i found on Etsy by Helkatdesign.
But hé, let's stick to
turqoise and
Summer, how about this outdoor
kitchen i saw on
Lille Lykke's blog.
And these
turqoise vases make the difference in this lovely tablesetting.
I think i just start with painting my toenails :D (told you i am chicken)
Have a happy,happy Summer.

Hi Linda!!! Heeeey we made to the final!!!! ;)
ReplyDeletePaul the physic octupus is a smart guy LOL !!!
Love the first photo, and all the lovely details on it, that dress, those shoes...Turquoise means summer for me too, recently I bought two new colours (turquoise and aquamarine) for my palette and couldn´t resist to dedicate a post to them!!!
Have a wonderful day!!!!

ahh...but turquoise tones so WELL with orange; if you were to paint your walls turquoise you could hang the orange bunting as a PERMANENT feature.
ReplyDeleteI know that you would just SO love that, wouldn't you?
with love
xx
I love turquoise!
ReplyDeleteAnd I´m very happy for you that you reached the final. I am going to watch the final aswell and I will think of you and your hubby and cheer for Oranje! Go go go!
that first pic is beautiful indeed!

lovely interiors, loving the walls with gold in the first image!
ReplyDeleteDutch to win the Cup!
Love turquoise for summer. That house is gorgeous! xo
ReplyDeleteOh yes ~ turquoise is a lovely summer color! It is a bit scary jumping into a color commitment isn't it? Starting with your toe nail painting is a good start. :)
ReplyDeleteHave fun!
xo Catherine
We hope the voetbal team goes all the way!!!
ReplyDeleteWow! The turquoise walls and gold molding is GORGEOUS in the first photo!

love all the pics especially the first and the second ones. you've got such a good eye for these finer things. turqoise happends to be my fav colour. :)
ReplyDelete~ash's mum
This is just fantastic...and I say be brave and start with the toenails! :) xoxo-Carrie
ReplyDeleteI am so loving the Chanel nail polish - v good choice, I love chanel x
ReplyDeleteHaha, well then I think I'm chicken too. I usually paint my toenails before my fingernails.
ReplyDeleteI love that turquoise and gold room. At my house, when I was little, the mantle had an elaborate design that we painted gold...it reminds me of that, even though that house is much more elegant!
I love turquoise. It's one of my favourite colours. It's where green and blue meet :)
ReplyDeleteNow I want to paint my toes that color too! :)
ReplyDeleteCompletely agree, Turquoise is the perfect Summer hue!
Die muren zijn inderdaad geweldig zo met dat gouden accent. Zou het ook nooit doen, vraag me dan af of het na een paar maanden nog zo leuk zal zijn... De aqua vaasjes zijn geweldig!
ReplyDeleteEen gezellig zomers weekend. xx
ooh that first house is beautiful, the gold trim is just perfect! And what a lovely outdoor kitchen! congrats on making it to the final!
ReplyDeleteMe too I would be too chicken to actually DO it but love the idea. I would definitely do the nails in that colour, though! Especially if it's Chanel.
ReplyDeleteI am so cuckoo that I could paint a wall turquoise before I could paint my toenails that shade!
ReplyDeleteAny traditional Dutch recipes you can send me? I'm doing a family tree cookbook for Marcel and Regan. His mom is sending me some early next week but they have to be translated first. I'm always asking for your help aren't I? You are a good friend! Love that first room. You could do it..it would be gorgeous! xxoo
In the picture of your kitchen on the sidebar..your pitcher looks turquoise...see how well it suits you? You can go for it! Just like the soccer team!
ReplyDeleteBe still my heart! LOVE!
ReplyDeleteLove, love it all, but that 2nd photo makes my heart go pitter patter. You had asked about adding a signature line.... my sweet friend Tara sent me this link and it helped me create mine... hope it helps!

Oh, gorgeous! I love turquoise, I'm still not sick of it! Gorgeous paired with that gold, just lovely! And I love the nail polish! XO!
ReplyDeleteFirst of all me and my boyfriend are sitting on the bed and we are keeping our fingers crossed for the Netherlands in this very moment! :)
ReplyDeleteAnd: I am so in love with this outdoor kitchen! This is the most lovely thing I've ever seen :)
Pale turquoise looks so romantic, especially with the golden accents like in the London house.

bummer about the game....
ReplyDeletePerfect color for summer! I think your toenails are a great place to start!
ReplyDeletethis light and easy blue color makes me happy, inspiring me to do some repainting in my house :)
ReplyDeleteI'd be afraid of painting my house turquoise, too! I'll compromise and go for blue.
ReplyDeleteI love turqoise, I recently had our 3 pce suite covered in turquoise covers and we are now considering using turquoise to decorate our bathroom. I love that outdoor kitchen, what a great idea!
