I've noticed something since I've been blogging. It seems people in the southeast, northeast and midwest like black furniture and darker colors and people in the southwest, west and northwest appear to do more with white furniture and much lighter colors. I would have thought the warm south would have liked the lighter colors since their climate is hot most of the time. Nothing good or bad about either, but it hit me some time ago when viewing the blogs of our southern sisters. Then recently I saw a blog where the woman in the midwest was answering a question as to why she did a stool in black and she said "black sells in the midwest." Just an interesting observation is all.
But I do know that all of us love white linens. So we'll look at some more today. Truthfully, I have a bib like this that I wear when I have on something I don't want to get dirty while eating.
White on white is one of my favorite decorating schemes.

Connie, I like dark furniture and live in out West. Sort of the French Country look in black. Does that make me strange? I also like white cottage look, but my nothing in my house resembles cottage chic at all...but I like it. I love white linens and lace too. Thanks for sharing. Mumzie girl out here in Cali. :)
ReplyDeleteI guess I am an exception to the rule... I live in the northeast icebox. I love light colored furniture. I think I am a summer girl even in January when the wind chill factor here is -25!!
ReplyDeleteYour white linen photos are yummy.
Thanks for sharing!!
Love,

Connie,Goodmorning.Love all these whites.I think lace pillows and lace curtains are beautiful with woodtones.Someday I would love to get all crochet lace for my front living room and dining room.I think it just looks so charming with the rustic woods of my walls.Hugs,Jennifer
ReplyDeleteHi Connie - lots of lovely white linens

I so love white, Connie. There is something fresh and clean about anything in white, especially just washed lace trimmed sheets (hanging on my line right now while I pray for the rain to hold off!)
ReplyDeleteWhen somebody ask me what my favorite color is and I say white they look at me so weird. When someone new comes in my house they have told me I need to add color, I like my color white.

Good morning Connie, I am so sorry I have missed a few of your delightful posts. I was in Atlanta after my trip to MI and time has just Left me behind in so many things. Well I am back and catching up. Congrats to Charo for winning that sweet apron. Your living room tweaking is charming. The perfection in cottage design. Lovely. Yes, white is a very beautiful look, but I am more into color. More French Country with a touch of traditional. I do admire your photos with white and ecru. The white on white chair is stunning always.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your many visits, I do enjoy them very much.
Have a lovely day.
Hugs, Jeanne
When I see a lot of white, I always think of Nantucket. I like light wood, myself.
ReplyDeleteGreat photos Connie, thanks for sharing.

It's funny you mentioned the colors, etc. I've noticed it too. But when I see the whites I love it just as much as I do the darks!
ReplyDeleteEnjoy your weekend!

Hi Connie,
ReplyDeleteYour white linen images are so pretty. That chair IS gorgeous! Sometimes I think I need two or maybe three houses, because I love whites and darks. I would love to have an all white house, and yet I love too many colors to go with just white. But you are right about everyone loving white linens. So fresh! Thank you for bringing us these pretties.
Hugs,
June
I love the white furniture and linen as well! The random thought at the end of your post is one I can relate to as well!
ReplyDeleteHugs and glitter,
Patti

ReplyDeleteHow have you been??? The weather is getting pretty chilly here, we may get flurries tonite, can you believe that????
Hugs!

Hi Connie, I was just thinking of you and took a break to come visit and there you were visiting me.
ReplyDeleteI love these whites and had a room once in another house with all white in a bedroom. It was dreamy. I love the pillows and they remind me of candlewick style designs. I used to do a lot of that.
This is beautiful!
Hugs, Celestina Marie
Connie, There is no guessing as to what colors we like no is there?
ReplyDeleteI adore crisp white linens too. I thought those pillows were on your bed! lol
