I'm Feeling Blue Lately

That is, in design, of course! In many ways lately, I have been incorporating blue, either in small or big doses. Many shades of this color have shown up in my local and e-design projects, as well as in my own home! I thought I would dedicate this post to one of my favorite colors and why it continues to work so well in design...

With a coastal twist 

Blue patterned draperies

A statement blue sofa

Blue all over

Bits of blue sprinkled throughout

Blue as an accent

Amber B Interiors... that's me!!  :)

Subtle blue accessories


I have always been a fan of blue in all of its shades. I love that it goes with so many colors.

What's your take on the color??

Our Dining Room is Painted- Here are the Afters!

Here is a sneak peek into our dining room transformation. I am so excited to be done before the holidays. If you missed my recent post, I decided to add one more thing to my to do list and paint our dining room before company arrives!

Here is the after...




The color is Halo by Benjamin Moore and is a soft green/gray color. It's lighter and brighter and quite a change from the previous dark golden brown walls. If you're wondering why the Christmas decorations aren't up, it's because I have news! Part of this room will be on a fun web site soon and I had to take photos for the article! I think it will go live after the holidays, so no decorations for now. I will post a holiday themed room soon, when I get it all back up!

Still to do {At some point}
- Hang the curtain rods near the crown molding and install silk drapes.

I'm Feeling Blue Today...

Don't worry- I'm not feeling sad today- I'm talking about the color blue! Depending on the shade, blue can make a room feel chic, coastal, masculine, feminine, modern or traditional- it's one of those versatile colors that I love! In large and small doses, here are some wonderful blue rooms:
