SQUEEZE OF LIME

Doesn't this look absolutely perfect?  Casual lime green curtains waving in a gentle breeze, bright hydrangea peeking over the ledge and two sweet butterfly chairs flanking a simple white table on a summer porch.  The colorful vignette is all about laid back summer comfort with a chic twist of color.  I'm taken with the lime green gingham-the traditional pattern is reminiscent of past summers (tablecloths, sundresses!) and yet so modern in bright green.  I've decided to take the plunge and add a twist of lime to my summer color scape. Scalamandre's Island Cloth Collection is awash in punchy lime green, perfect for an outdoor accent chair or fun pillows and made of sun and mildew resistant fabric.  I'm leaning towards the Galapagos turtle-I think the print would be fantastic paired with my traditional navy cushions.  Whats your favorite summer color?

Love lime green, love that porch, and LOVE that last print before the gingham! You have some gorgeous finds. My summer decorating is all about lime green, turquoise and white.
