Inspo Fridays: June's Colour of the Month

June 11, 2021

How lovely has it been to look up at the clear, blue sky on your quarantine walks lately? (This especially applies to my fellow Ontarians who are *just* getting out of lockdown today, woohoo!) The sky’s dreamy blue hue inspired the Refuge colour of the month - Angelite. It got its name from the periwinkle-coloured stone that’s said to help you out of any blocks in creativity or honesty as well as promoting communication. Not a bad stone to keep by your bed! If crystals aren’t your vibe but you love the colour, keep scrolling to see how you can incorporate Angelite into your home.

Open Up!

If you read our blog about May’s Colour of the Month, you’ll know I’m an advocate for colourful front doors. Jennifer at @farmhousewifey got the memo! Her gorgeous French double doors allow the white trim and planters to pop against the blue and grey. This front porch says “bonjour!” and “did you remember the wine?"

Would you look at that arch?! Heather (@heatherchadduck) paired her blue door with a sweet pineapple door knocker to add extra charm to an already lovely entryway. It’s a simple space- but details like the knocker and the herringbone brick step is telling of the gorgeous home inside.

Making Laundry Fun!

@robinsonhome followed their client’s request for a functional laundry room (including a laundry chute from their kids’ bedroom!!) and made it beautiful with a soft blue paint on the cabinets. What a dream! To see more of this space, check out their blog here.

Built-In Blues

Do you have a built-in in your living room? Why not give it some colour! Melanie at @melaniegowendesign painted this unit a beachy blue making the space even cozier. Paired with bamboo chairs and the ever-so-trendy “The Frame TV” by Samsung, this place is ready for summer movie nights.

It’s said that homes that have blue rooms sell higher than their asking price… So if this inspo blog wasn’t enough incentive to grab a can of Angelite, maybe that will be! I plan on using Angelite on a small hutch my roommate picked up at the Grimsby ReStore and I can’t WAIT to see how it turns out! Does blue fit into your colour scheme? Let me know!
