Blue & White for Timeless Interiors

Is there any color combination more loved than blue and white?  My very first apartment with my husband was decorated in blue and white.  Over the years we have gone different directions, but this, likely our last home is all about the blue and white.This post contains some affiliate links for your convenience.   Click here to read my full disclosure policy.

My own living room has taken blue and white a little more bold with my blue velvet Pottery Barn sofa.  This rug is one of my best bargain finds!  Believe it or not, this is from Walmart and only $276!!

  1. I’ve become a fan of blue again. I don’t know why I stopped.

    I have loved blue since I was young. I’m adding more and more.

  2. I’m dreaming of a blue and white kitchen with a few yellow accents.
    Love your blue and white!

  3. This is so timely! I’ve always decorated in earth tones, which fit in with living in New England. We are building our final home in North Carolina and I’m leaning towards blue instead of earth tones. This article has given me much inspiration. thanks!

  4. My living room has gray walls, white trim, dark blue carpet and white upholstered Queen Anne furniture. I like to see how you decorate with blue and white and get some ideas from your website. You are an inspiration. After seeing your site, I just created an arrangement for the center of the dining room table using white and pale blue hydrangeas and iris in a silver water pitcher. From time to time I have used ‘accent colors’ of red, sometimes yellow, sometimes pink with my blue and white colors. My Christmas tree (which stays up year round) is decorated in a patriotic theme of red-white-blue with white lights. Thank you for your website.
