Blue and Green Obsession

     If there is a combination of colors that has caught my eye, it is blue with green.  The earth and sky.  The ocean in the tropics.  Picture a sunny summer day when you look up to see the bluest sky at the top of the greenest treeline.  I love that (I miss that).

    Perhaps this cold winter has kindled this new color obsession of mine, but truthfully, I have always loved blue with green, green with blue.

      I could seriously paint our front door this lovely shade of blue.  That is if MR. wasn't so opposed to the Tarheels.  Whenever he sees "Carolina blue" he goes into a rant about how obnoxious Carolina fans are and how they beat Georgetown in a championship game back when.  And let's not forget when Dean Smith was the coach and they played four corners, which really wasn't basketball, but basketboring.  All of that and I just want a blue door.

      Isn't it unfortunate when sports interfere with decor? 


      If I painted our front door blue...
      I might be reminded of when Micheal Jordan scored for Carolina, then Georgetown got the ball.  Freddy Brown, a Georgetown player, accidentally passed the ball to James Worthy, a Carolina player ~ game over.  

      He'll never go for it...LOL.

      1. My two favorite colors. I would *love* to paint my front door that color but it wouldn't really match the trim very well. I am laughing at your husband story. I don't have a that problem when decorating, I'm single. hehe

      2. Two of my favorite colors I'm lucky to have a husband who lets me do whatever I think looks good---otherwise we would have REAL issues!

      3. I heart green any way you want to serve it. Usually I'm a green and red girl, but that blue door is pretty amazing.
        Hubby is a UGA fan, so I don't have decor interference!

      4. Tracy, my husband "lets" me do whatever I want too, but when it comes to our home, we both want to like it. Fare is fare.

        Carolina basketball is a bone of contention with him that we like to have fun with. When he sees light blue, he automatically thinks of UNC. Then I give him a hard time.

        It's all in good fun.
