Turquoise: A Love Affair

I've been on a turquoise kick for years now, and given these beautiful images I found on pink wallpaper's blog, I don't think I'll be shaking it any time soon...


I was on a Ft. Worth home tour a while back, and there was a pantry completely built out with this exact cabinetry...same color, vintage-looking hardware and butcher block counter top.  The walls were painted a perfectly pale shade of lime green...it looked amazing and I've thought about it many a time since then.  Don't know if I'd ever be able to commit to full-blown kitchen cabinetry in this color, but I could definitely do a pantry!  So glad I have this photo to reference for "someday".


Loving that pop of color on the door.  I wish I were more bold!  I've been planning to paint the inside of our own front door, but I'm so non-committal and scared to go big sometimes that it will probably end up being black.  Hopefully if I look at this picture enough, I'll be able to muster up the courage when I'm ready to knock that project out!

I have, too, gosh darnit! I registered for turqouise dishes when I got married for crying out loud! Turqouise has been "in" for a while now (as if I care)and chic for several years already. I dont care what the fashion trend experts say! Thank you.
