Is there any color that signals that spring is here better than bright lemon yellow?
It is especially beautiful when paired with blue and white.

This color combination in my home is an old friend that makes an appearance in one way or another this time of year.
So when it was time to freshen things up for spring, yellow was the perfect choice for the kitchen.
Plus , how could I resist when I found these kitchen towels?

Isn’t that what the rebirth of spring promises?
We are all, with faith and grace and humor , making lemonade in one way or another.
Isn’t that wonderful?
Isn’t that wonderful?
That is something that happens during the spring too-
we all begin to think we can do this thing- whatever it may be.
I believe that not only can we do it, but we can do it well, or at least with a smile on our face, no matter how wobbly .
I think of yellow as the smiling color.
And you? What is your favorite color this spring?
I hope your lemons are turning into lemonade too.

Love all your punches of yellow!! Have a great week.
ReplyDeleteI love your yellows added to your color scheme. Yellow makes me happy, too!
ReplyDeleteGood Morning Sweet Laura,
ReplyDeleteI agree with you, yellow just has a wonderful way of making everything a little happier.
Loving how you combine blue and yellow together!
Happy Monday too!
Good Morning Laura. The pops of yellow in your bright blue and white kitchen are perfect! I just love how welcoming your space is. Having a soft place to sit in the kitchen probably makes all the difference and encourages others to join you. Even if they are just sitting. :)
ReplyDeleteI'd love to hang out in your kitchen with you.
Beautiful yellow flowers, my favourite!
ReplyDeleteHave a nice week
Yellow does it for me too:) Makes me smile! I have a bouquet of yellow daffodils on my kitchen table right now! Have a blessed day dear Laura, HUGS!
ReplyDeleteYour home looks so happy with the touches of yellow. Beautiful.
ReplyDeleteYellow and blue is one of my favorite color pairings too. Love those towels!
ReplyDeleteIn my neck of the woods -- MSU Spartan Green and White -- too much blue and yellow (maise, gold) can be trouble! It's the down-the-road U of M rivals! Not for me! I love those colors, and they always make me smile! They look terrific in your home!
ReplyDeleteBright and cheerful...your home is a Spring delight
ReplyDeleteLove the combination of blue and yellow! So Springy!!
ReplyDeleteJudy
I also love the combination of blue and yellow, if blue is so sober and elegant, yellow gives that touch of cheerfulness which 'makes' Spring !
ReplyDeleteThank you for sharing thses stunning photographs of your home with us, darling Laura !
Hope your week is off to a great start, I wish you most wonderful days to come,
with love and thankfulness
Dany

Shelia ;)
I love this post, Laura. The blue and yellow is so refreshing!
ReplyDeleteKaren
♥ the blue, white and yellow, Laura...it is definitely a sign of spring. My favorites for spring are aqua and lime...not much of either in nature, though.
ReplyDeleteYour yellow is perfect. I haven't chosen a color for spring, yet. Hmmm, wonder what it will be?
ReplyDelete"The smiling colour" -- love it!
ReplyDeleteI love the yellow! Especially the tulips. And I love lemonade! And I love you! Have a great week!
ReplyDeleteJB
I thought I was over blue until I saw the new Pier 1 catalog...it is just as beautiful as ever and I want more!!!
ReplyDeleteLaura,
ReplyDeleteI love the message of your towels and practice it, well let's just say I really inspire to! Your house welcomes in its bright and pretty Blue's and Yellows. Enjoyed the message of your post and seeing more of your lovely home.

Yellow is such a happy color and looks great in your spaces with the blue! My happy color is lime green. Makes me smile every time!
ReplyDeleteYellow is the perfect spring color and I am a big fan of blue and yellow. Yours blue and white mixed with the yellow is my idea of perfection and the reference of making Lemonade is perfect for spring renewal. I came here from Poofing the Pillows and am so glad I did.
ReplyDeleteLaura, I love blue and white porcelain, and yellow (my favorite color) is the perfect accent for it. I think I'd feel right at home there!
ReplyDeleteI adore your Spring kitchen,Laura! Blue and yellow are such a wonderful combo, and you certainly do have quite the collection of blue and white pieces....WOW!
ReplyDeleteWarm hugs,
Carol
How beautiful! Blue and yellow are such pretty colors together!
ReplyDeleteLaura, everything is so fresh and charming. Love the added touch of yellow. Blue and yellow go so well together. You have a lovely home.
ReplyDeleteHi, hopped over from Staceys. Love the pops of yellow for spring. I usually decorate more with pastels until May when my yellows come out. Next week I am hosting a baby shower and her colors are navy and mustard so I pulled out my blue and whites today and a bit of mustard. Kind of a fun change.
ReplyDeletehugs,
Jann
Yellow IS such a happy color and it plays so well with blue and white! But who doesn't play well with blue and white? ;-)
ReplyDeleteThis makes me want to run out shopping for blue white and yellow! So bright and fresh for spring and summer!
ReplyDeleteJenna
I love blue and white ~ and blue and white and yellow is just perfection!
ReplyDeleteBig Texas Hugs,
Susan and Bentley
I have always loved blue & yellow together too! My kitchen used to be yellow with blue touches, but now it's blue with white touches ;) Great kitchen towels. You have a lovely home Laura.
ReplyDeleteWendy
