Thanks for stopping by. Today I have decided is 'Teal Thursday'. I love, love, love all shades of white. I have rooms dedicated to it. But I need color too and Teal is one of my many favorites. I have an eclectic way of decorating but it all works. How do you decorate?
I found this huge sign at the flea market. We almost didn't get it in the SUV. Here are some of the fans I collect. I love the different shades they came in and the different styles of the blades and cages. I would love to have them all wired together so that I can just flip on a switch in the summer and have them all cooling the house. Besides moving around the air, it would look really great too.
Some of my linens. If I find a linen that I love and it has a few light stains on it, I just dye it. They come out so pretty and you can coordinate it to your own decor.
My sofa with comfy pillows and a quilt to keep warm.
This old cabinet was perfect just the way it was except for the knobs. I changed them out and now it is perfect!
A painted teal chair near the phone and a pillow that I made.
I bought this pretty wreath from Homegoods and have it up all year long. I just love the colors.
Do you have teal in your home? I'd love to hear about it.
'Till next time.....

Hi,
ReplyDeleteWow, I love your decorating. That sign is pretty great. Glad it did fit in your car.
I don't have teal, but I do have a little of the bluish greenish color. I have a very eclectic house. I think you would like it.
Love the fans!
Have a great Valentine's Day weekend!

I don't but now I want too!
ReplyDeleteThat sign is wonderful..good thing it fit :)
Debra,
ReplyDeleteI do love Teal!! It's funny how people will call a color Teal, and it is never the same shade with any person! But I do love the color blue-teal that is in your photos. YES! I love pretty much every shade of blue. So, I'm covered if you say blue! Your photos are a delight. WHAT....A...SIGN... You would be surprised what I have fit into the back of my van with the help of a screwdriver and some dismantling. well..maybe you wouldn't be surprised. Men shake their heads in amazement when they see determined women accomplish the impossible... {:-) Love the fans.
Enjoyed my visit.
All your teal is just delicious!! I don't decorate with it, but I sure wear a lot of it lately!! Love all your timeworn furniture, those gorgeous knobs and that wreath and telephone chair and pillow!

Well I just love everything you have!! the worn woods and the color Teal.. which comes out on my screen as a yummy shade of Turquoise..Which is one of my favorite decorating accent colors, that and Aqua..,,all their shades! I have a passion for White..My bedroom is in all shades of white and cream..but when you want a pop of color there is nothing like a little warm wood and aqua with it!!!
ReplyDeleteI love all of your blue. It's one of my favorite colors. Your blog is great and I love love the name!
ReplyDeleteDebra, everything looks fantastic. I love and I need colors
ReplyDeleteThis is stunning! I love the linens stacked so daintily in the cupboard...
ReplyDeleteYup ~ I have to agree. With me the teals start to come out as soon as I hear the first Spring Songbird. Thats just the way it works out. I love it and you gave me some wonderful ideas. Maybe you should start a Turquoise Tuesday :) Count me in!!!!!!!!
ReplyDeleteHi Debra,
ReplyDeleteWow have you got some awesome teal pieces in your home. I love the chest with just a bit of teal paint left on it. Well actually, I could steal any of these pieces and you can bet I would get them all to fit in my car! The fans are absolutely genius.
hugs
Oh and I wanted to tell you that your WW post was so beautiful. You have such an amazing eye for finding treasures.
I just recently started using more teal too....or turquoise like I like calling it....same difference. I used a lot of it at Christmas this year and I liked the change.
ReplyDeleteYour pieces are super. Love the idea of having all the fans going at the same time too.
xo....Carole
You have many beautiful teal pieces! I like the fans, also; I only have 1 old fan and I have it on our front porch every summer.
ReplyDeleteWe have used sage green a lot in our downstairs, but upstairs, I just love the color on our bedroom and bath walls, which is a light blue that sometimes looks green (or is it the other way around?), very soft and goes well in our old house. I recently have been loving robins egg blue and may put a little touch in the bathroom as we finish it.
i love your touches of turquoise! i do the same thing but usually with green or pink! the santa fe sign is fabulous and your fans are darling! love it all!
ReplyDeleteI love teal, turquoise, ocean blue, tiffany blue! Thanks for sharing these. I like the blue glass hardware. I've tried dying things a few times but experiences were so bad I haven't tried since. But I'm prone to user error!
