Show Off Your Cottage Monday

Welcome to "SHOW OFF YOUR COTTAGE MONDAY", a blog party I host at the beginning of each week to celebrate the things we love about our homes and how we live.
The House in the Roses
Hi everybody! Are you a romantic at heart? Oh I am! I often fancy my house decorated just the way my heart dictates, but usually hit roadblocks (co-occupants) along the way. Since this is “MY” room—all mine, and I can do whatever I want here without the boys interfering, I go totally Romantic in the styling of the space. This time, I decided to decorate my little heavens in yellows and pastel blues... Don’t you just think this is the most fascinating color combination ever! Ah yes, blue is one of the most calming colors, it evoke a soothing blue sky, and yellow is the color evoked by light! And I so yearn for those two colors in my little glacial world right now!
what are you celebrating today? Take us there by linking, and please don't forget to bring your friends over by placing our little logo on your blogs and linking back!

    Cielo, your room is so pretty. It must be nice to have your own room to do with as you please! I am loving all the blue in there. I do think blue is soothing, and I am finding I am liking it more the older I get. Your skirted table is G*O*R*G*E*O*U*S :D

    I am celebrating my laundry room. It is done and organized :D I am also celebrating my family. I love them so much!

    Happy Valentine's Day, Cielo!
    xoxoxo,
    Ricki Jill

    Looks like a wonderful spot to escape the winter. I think I would hibernate there until spring.

    what a beautiful and calming room to be in and look at! I love how you combine the yellow and blue colors together, they're so lovely! I love everything, the table covers, the cushions, the cherub, the candle and the dresser with beautiful teacups, I would be in heaven if my room looks like yours!
