Decorating with Blue and Green: Harmonious Bliss

 Colours play a pivotal role in setting the mood and ambience of a space.

 


 
Combining blue and green can create a harmonious and refreshing atmosphere, evoking a sense of tranquility and connection with nature.

 


Let us explore how to tastefully decorate with blue and green, specifically by mixing green printed or patterned elements with blue pottery and boxes.  



         Green Printed or Patterned Upholstery: Start by incorporating green printed or patterned upholstery into your space. Choose a comfortable armchair or sofa upholstered in a lush green fabric with subtle prints or patterns. This will serve as the focal point of the room, creating a vibrant base for the rest of your blue and green decor.

    Cushion: Enhance the visual appeal of your seating area by adding cushions in shades of blue and green. Opt for a mix of solid-colored cushions in varying shades of blue, along with cushions featuring green prints or patterns. This combination will add depth and interest to your seating arrangement while maintaining a cohesive color scheme.

       Table Cover: To tie the room together, select a table cover that blends blue and green seamlessly. Look for a tablecloth with a pattern that combines both colors or choose a solid-colored tablecloth in either blue or green and complement it with table runners or placemats in the opposite hue. This simple addition will bring a sense of balance and unity to your space.







          Vase and Buddha Statue: Add an element of elegance and spirituality to your decor by incorporating a green vase filled with fresh blue flowers. This combination not only creates a stunning visual contrast but also symbolizes the harmonious connection between earth and water. To enhance the serene ambiance, place a small Buddha statue nearby, selecting one that features blue accents or is made from blue-hued material.

         Blue Pottery and Boxes: Incorporate blue pottery and boxes as accent pieces throughout your space. Utilize decorative blue pots or vases to display potted green plants, creating a natural touch that complements the color scheme. Place blue-hued boxes on shelves or side tables to serve as both functional storage solutions and decorative items. These small touches will contribute to the overall harmony of the room.

             Decorating with blue and green allows you to create a space that exudes tranquility and a connection to nature. By combining green and blue you can achieve a visually captivating and harmonious ambiance in your home. Remember to experiment with different shades and patterns to find the perfect balance and express your personal style.

Embrace Your 50s and Beyond with Positivity

 Next year I will complete 6 decades of my existence on this earth. I celebrated my birthday in the first week of June. So thought of penning what I think of reaching 59.

 Our society always glorifies youth, especially for women, be it in life, in magazines, in media and now in all-encompassing social media. 



       

          But you & I know of countless women, who are whole-heartedly embracing their late 50s with much grace & joy. They fully enjoy the associated perks of reaching a certain age and radiate a positive attitude towards life.

         Aging actually has quite a few benefits. With each passing year, our mind becomes more liberated, we are less bothered by others' comments and validation. We can ignore a lot of nonsense and can also protest or rebuke someone for their unacceptable behaviour.

          For many, as the fear of societal judgment diminishes or vanishes, they start reinventing themselves by pursuing new interests, hobbies and much more.
       



           Also as we age, we accumulate a wealth of experiences, knowledge and insights that shape our perspectives.
           
       Now, we invest in meaningful and authentic relations.  We enjoy a few but genuine friends and appreciate the beauty of deep connections that stand the test of time.

           So let us embrace the journey of aging with open hearts and minds, and revel in the beauty of all the wonderful things that life has to offer us.

-Do cultivate positivity and look at the brighter side of each event.
-Take the power in your hand by making choices that you love and not dictated by others.
-And don't forget to express your Gratitude for all the good things & blessings in your life.

       Do let me know about your outlook on embracing your age.
