Close Call

Dear Navy,

Several times during my years on this earth you have threatened gray to move into my #1 favorite color space.  It is a close race but this picture might put you in the lead.

I love that image. Photos like this make my fear of doing colored cabinets quickly fade!

What a beautiful space! I'm a huge fan of navy, because I think it goes great with pink. :)

Stunning space! I'd love to cook in that kitchen, it looks warm and cozy. I need to convincing with navy, I adore the color! Have a great weekend.

Love that kitchen! It makes me wonder why so many of us are afraid of color when it can look that good. Thanks for sharing.

What a fantastic kitchen. If this were mine I probably would not want to go out to dinner ever.

Navy is my fav. :) My living room is navy, white, and beige and I'm trying to bring in some accent colors now, but everything I gravitate to is just straight up NAVY!

That is beautiful. Oh, to have such a lovely space in one's house!

I love it! Good thing grey and navy go great together.. I find myself in the same boat. I've actually been contemplating navy cabinetry in just part of our kitchen.. I think I'll go stare at this photo for awhile longer now :)

I've used this exact color, it's Farrow & Ball, name is escaping me at the present...but it's so good! Try it, you will love. It's perfect for a library!

Pretty sure it's Hague Blue by Farrow and Ball. My husband would be so glad you're calling it navy. We're in the process of painting our basement this color right now (Sherwin Williams color-matched the F&B color for us). I was calling it a dark peacock blue which he wasn't going for - he was fine as long as I called it navy! It is beautiful!
