Do you like this shade of blue? What does it make you think of?
This is such a pretty shade of blue. I wonder what flavour a macaroon this colour would be.
ReplyDeleteYes, very pretty color!
ReplyDeleteI absolutely love love love duck egg blue - if it was up to me, everything in my house would be this colour! I never knew that deep orange could compliment it though - that's something I'm definitely going to have to try out!
ReplyDeleteBlueberry maybe? I'm not sure!
ReplyDeleteIt's one of my favourites.
