Good Blue Monday to you!! How was your weekend?? What keeps you busy?? This past week I had the flu…Boo!! It really knocked me for a loop. But I am feeling much better. And blue always makes me feel better, that’s why I’ve got the Monday Blues.
Today I am taking a little different approach to my Monday Blues. I thought it would be fun to show you a couple of the blues in our “new” office. The reveal for the office will be soon, but until then here are just a few blues that make me smile.
We say this is our office, but it is really a bedroom with one whole wall being a closet. It used to be our TV Room, but after moving a few things around we have transitioned this room into an office. The room is so much more convenient and useful like this. As you walk in the office from the living room, there is a tiny wall on the left. And my blue framed silhouettes of our kids fit this space just right.
This is the perfect home for these lovely blue frames. We had them done when all of our kids were small. The frames were black but I couldn’t resist and painted them with Turquoise Mist by Olympic. The silhouettes blend with our gallery wall now.
This candle stand also adorns the tiny wall. When I bought her she was gold. But, that didn’t last long.
I painted these jars and vase for a wedding last Summer. Tying them with twine adds texture and an aged look. They make me smile with Tiffany blue.
They are sitting on top of our bookshelf:
I bought this lovely at Target. The white back was too stark, so I added pieces of scrapbook paper to add depth and color. She looks much better, don’t you think??
You will also find another blue in our office. This thrifted shelf I found for $3. She is hanging just above our computer desk. (where I am sitting right now) It is refreshing to look up and see this delightful shelf.
Now you can see why I’ve got the Monday Blues. Gotta love me the Monday Blues.
I’ve got the blues every Monday, so come back again next week:

I love your blues! Those frames on the silhouettes are my favorite (I go ga-ga for silhouettes of kiddos)! Oh but those painted jars…so much prettiness!
Love all those blues. :) All the different shades look great together. Like Holly, I love the silhouettes! I’d be thrilled if you’d link up at this week’s Off the Hook!
Cute accents! I love that light blue color with the white :-)
Thanks Jessi!! I love when you stop by!!
