Bits of Inspiration: Cobalt Blue

 How often do you see an item and for whatever reason you just can’t seem to get that item out of your mind.  My latest “mind bend” is the result of one of Target’s latest home decor collections and this cobalt blue lamp.

Every time I see the ad on tv showcasing this lamp and that blue paisley pillow, I just want to jump through the screen and grab them up.

I don’t exactly know why I’m loving Cobalt Blue these days, because it’s not a color that I typically wear or decorate with.

  Maybe it’s because I recently flipped through one of my favorite design books, by one of my design idols, and was reminded of the refreshingly crisp and stylish look that blue and white always creates.

Or maybe it’s because of the gorgeous cobalt blue fashions I’m seeing in magazines and on the runways.

Or maybe it has something to do with all the attention on this upcoming event.

Whatever is fueling my obsession for blue and white, has brought a burst of energy to my design perspective.  I hope that one day soon, I’ll have the opportunity to design and blue and white space and turn my bits of inspiration into reality.  Until then, here’s a design board I created inspired by Cobalt and White.

    My favorite for decorating has been blue and white for a long time now. I’ve discovered that I like blue on white better than white on blue. I like the clean feel a white background gives. I love that lamp!! Maybe they will go on sale soon. We can hope!

    The lamp was available for a VERY short time. I think there may have been a quality issue with them. I looked all over as soon as I saw this add – and they were already gone in stores and on line. I found one Target that had it – and the ONE they had was broken. They never got them in again. Pier I has something similar now, but it’s not quite the same.

      Hi,
      This lamp came out last year at Target and is probably no longer available. I’d check their website and also google Sabrina Soto lamps for Target and see if anything pops up.
