I have always loved blue and white and until two years ago, have always decorated my homes with it with a little bit of yellow here and there and maybe a splash of red. Although I really like the colors I began decorating with a couple of years ago, I am still drawn to blue and white. The other night I was talking to my mother and told her I was going to use the blue and white in my master bedroom which I am currently remodeling. She told me she was surprised I lasted as long as I have without it!<br /><br />The tile and stove in the kitchen is to die for!
