Inspiration : Bathroom

I'm back.  Vacay was fab, work was busy, this weekend was beautiful.  Back to the swing of things.

I will say that the bathroom updates (and maybe a reno?) are definitely toward the bottom of the list of 'to do's', but that doesn't stop a girl from dreaming.  While eating my Kellogg's and reading the latest Crate & Barrel magazine I came across something that knocked my socks off.  Blues, grays, and whites are what I have been thinking about for the bathroom.

The first two images are from C&B's latest mag - white subway tile and gray grout looks nice, some blue walls, and a white and gray shower curtain.

The next image is Bower Power's new laundry room and they lovely blue paint - Kerry Blue by Martha Stewart.  I am always drawn to 'deep' blues but I like that the Kerry Blue keeps it 'peppy' and light.

Tucking these away in my 'idea book' for later.

Front Porch Tweaks

Our front porch is in dire shape.  It really is just blah and in need of a good update.   Exhibit A:

My love of all things nautical is definitely driving my planned tweaks and updates.  Here is what I am thinking:

BM Woodlawn Blue Door {via White+Gold}

Beaded Door Number {via Ballard Designs}

Harbor Sconce {via Restoration Hardware}

Mailbox {via Amazon}

Striped Door Mat {via Pottery Barn}
