Rose Quartz & Serenity Blue

Leave a Comment

Joined together Rose Quartz and Serenity Blue (Pantone’s Color of the Year – Times Two) demonstrates an inherent balance between the warmer embracing rose quartz to the cooler tranquil serenity blue, reflecting connection and wellness, as well as a soothing sense of order and peace.  And on Nantucket – we are all about connecting with others and finding peace in our everyday lives.

So then I started thinking about how that would actually translate to modern home décor, and the answer—much to my surprise—was, amazingly well. Since rose quartz is a pretty pale pink, it lends itself to throw pillows, linens, wall colors, glassware, and even accent chairs, if you want to fully commit to living with one of the “It” colors of 2016.  Here is just a few of our favorite looks:

Linen is naturally cool, comfortable and breathable and becomes even more supple the longer you use it.  It’s luxurious look is one of our favorites.  If you are looking to add a pop of color to your room just add a few throw pillows in a refreshing green or blue.

Octopus Serving Pedestal

It’s no surprise that octopus designs are making a big splash in home décor and this platter turns summertime foods into centerpieces. Which is great for entertaining friends and family. Who wouldn’t enjoy a Blue Independence cocktail on a hot summers day? Unfortunately, the Pottery Barn serving pedestal was so popular this summer that it is sold out.  Pottery Barn does have a few more Octopus Drink Dispenser Stand which are on sale now (until inventory is depleted).  So if you are doing any last minute entertaining you may want to get one now.

Nantucket is known for it’s beautiful flower gardens and one of the most popular must-have plants for your garden is the blue hydrangea. Who doesn’t love big blue flowers? These versatile shrubs produce giant ball-shape flowers that look stunning in landscapes surrounding your home and make gorgeous bouquets.
