I need to start the week in a calm & peaceful frame of mind - and just gazing at these beautiful blue & white pieces certainly does it for me.

    Millie, my Mum is going to die when she sees this post! She loves blue and white china, and has some big lamps just the same as those vases. I love too of course xx

    Did you see we have been tagged by The House That A-M Built - how exciting! Thought provoking questions - should be fun!

    LOVE!! I love blue and white. In fact, I'm currently going through a blue phase in my home...the color just soothes me and looks wonderful with bright, fresh white!

    Love your blog Millie :)

    I'm not sure how I got here via few blogs, however I love the view inside The Laurel Hedge.
    I couldn't believe the blue and white images; they are my favourite colours and I adore everything you posted.

    Sad to see your fairy house go but how delightful it is going to be loved elsewhere...and I am now yearning for a bath!

    May I return again?

    Tanya, so glad you find the blue soothing too.

    Hi Jane - thank you for your lovely feedback, you are welcome back any time!

    A-M, your observations about blue & white creating an air of serenity are spot on.
