It seems that everywhere we turn this summer, we see blue – from the covers of home decor magazines, to the new collections presented at the Atlanta Gift Show and the nautical-themed fashions on the street.

Is the current economy inspiring these blues or does relaxed summer living under sunny skies by the ocean, lake or pool draw us to this favorite color?

Blue is calming yet refreshing, and with so many shades from peacock to periwinkle, this color is a perfect complement to white, green and brown. Chase away the summer blues with these wonderful accents!
