Inspired by Blueberries

We're not sure why, but we don't have many chipmunks at the cottage this year which means we have lots of blueberries. It is a tough call which we like more.






Aren't blue and green the best together?  I'm in love with this colour combination lately.  And I'm seeing it everywhere. 

Like in the blue of the canoe and lake against the green forest.  Does it get any more relaxing than this scene?



Or the blue and green June Hosta in my Mother's cottage garden. Such a beauty and definitely my favourite hosta? 



Or the blue and green drapes in our cottage bedroom window. The same fabric had been used for dining room drapes in our home in Nigeria when I was young and I remember them blowing against the back of my head in the wind when we ate dinner - until they were stolen one night by some thieves that is.  My Mother got more of the same fabric to replace the stolen drapes. I'm so glad she thought to bring the extra fabric home, though, as I love these drapes at the cottage when the morning light shines through them. 



And I can't leave out the blues I recently introduced into our family room that mingle well with the soft greens (you can read about it here).



Isn't blue and green the perfect summer colour combination.
