Sometimes it doesn’t take much to make a lovely and comfortable living space. In this case, some simple lawn sale furniture was transformed with white and blue paint into the perfect accessories for this cheerful bedroom in a coastal Maine summer cottage. The bright white walls and floor make the space seem larger than it is and the accent of blue is a perfect contrast. A modest table lamp, some seashells and a framed bird print complete the package. Can’t you just imagine the salty summer breezes blowing through the windows?
