Spanish Skies









The painting of Blondie Daughter's room is going well.  After a brief deliberation, we ditched lilac and opted for blue.  Very blue.

She is apparently going to lie in her bed and gaze up at the blueness and imagine it to be a Spanish summer sky.

Incidentally, I always decorate with a vase of tulips nearby.  Don't you?!  ;-)

Happy weekend.

  1. I try to not be nearby decorating - I sneak off somewhere if at all possible and let others get on with it ;) I detest decorating with a vengance.

    Love the colour tho and the tulips!

  6. The blue is a very pretty colour. Spanish skies.....it would work for me. Fortunately this morning I have very blue, very Australian skies to look at and a temperature of 35C to enjoy or swelter through depending on how you feel about hot weather.
    I always paint with tulips, or roses or snapdragons or hydrangeas, whatever flowers are in season. Isn't that what everyone does?! :)

    Have a fab day,

  7. Lovely colour and well done for coaching Blondie daughter into ditching the lilac, even if you did it subconsciously!

    How do you get little rounded corners on your photos, pretty please?

  8. I love the blue paint, it will look so pretty in your daughter's room, and wonderful to lie looking at a sunny sky! The tulips do look perfect against it...just because you're decorating doesn't mean you can't still prettify the room a bit, does it??
    Have a happy decorating time.

  13. What a glorious very-blue blue! Summer skies indeed, or one of those crisp cloudless January days that we're so overdue.
