What Is It About Light Blue?

I don't know what is happening but I am loving everything I see in light blue. I find myself pinning everything I see on Pinterest with this color. Whether it is food on a light blue plate, draperies, painted walls, painted chests, or tablescapes, I love them all. I thought I would share some of the images I have been pinning with this obsessive color. I made two mosaics of my pins.

I don't really think it is a new obsessive color for me but is a rekindled love of this color. I have been thinking about when I was a senior in high school (many moons ago), I loved aqua and wanted my Christmas dance dress to be aqua. Of course, I couldn't find a dress in this color so my sweet mother made one for me. I was so proud in my aqua knee-length dress. I had matching shoes and a purse in aqua too; and my date was the same guy I have now been married to for 41 years. 


Then for my Spring dance, I wanted an aqua formal and once again my mom found aqua fabric (satin) for the bottom and white lace for the bodice. The dress was "A-line" and again, I was so happy in my aqua formal. I'm going to look for pictures and share them if I can find them.

I think these eggs from the Pinterest picture of the blue and green eggs are a good example of the shades of light blue and aqua that are so stunning.

Here is a link to my Blue/Aqua Pinterest Board (not sure the link will work unless you are following me on Pinterest). I do have a Follow Me On Pinterest button on my sidebar.
