Color It Coastal: White

Hey there friends....

I decided to talk today about how amazing the color white is!  Oh how I love a perfectly white room!

*sigh*

Beach rooms bathed in white are timeless, elegant, and simple.  The sun-bleached palette produces a clean, airy atmosphere, allowing dramatic views or artwork to take center stage.  Also, create interest in a monochromatic room by adding depth and texture.

Ooolala....

Anywho, enjoy these lovely rooms....

Go for the look of an old beach shack by coating wooden walls in white. Once dry, sand planks to reveal glimpses of the wood beneath.

The best part about a white room is how beautiful your accessorizes stand out! 

I just LOVE these wreaths...

Paint exposed pipes or ducts the same hue as their surroundings to trick the eye and make the utilitarian objects appear less prominent. To focus attention on a single object, such as this antique sink, paint adjacent surfaces a softer, creamier white.

I know I said the "best part about a white room" above, but there is another "best part..."

Your upholstery will NEVER fade!  How much more amazing can it get!!

Install white beaded board and retro appliances to create classic cottage style in the kitchen. Oil-rubbed hardware provides dramatic contrast.

To add more interest to your room, accent your white walls with some hardwood, tile flooring, and/or reclaimed wood beams and furniture...

I just want to jump into this bed and take a nap right this INSTANT!  OOoooo and the bead board walls..LOVE IT!

When you design your room around the color white it creates an amazing pallete to stand out from your gorgeous view!!

This gorgeous room is from Layla Palmer's house at The Lettered Cottage.  She took down her existing wall and uncovered this gorgeous planked wall!  Isn't she LUCKY?!!!

Have a HAPPY Thursday!  Its my Saturday! WAHOOOO for the weekend!
