Now I'm landlocked in Atlanta but all of my porch ceilings are blue as well as my eating area ceiling and my Master Bathroom ceiling.

I always thought this prevented birds from nesting there because they confused the blue ceilings with the sky. I adore the Haint blue color in the first photograph, and the fact that the wicker chair and ottoman are painted the same color. I find these soft monochromatic color schemes soothing and calming and easy to live with.<br /><br />I love reading your blog, Beth, especially in these stressful times.

The Ben Moore Aura paint the painters used looks as perfect as the day they applied it. The Palladian Blue color hasn't faded, yellowed, or changed in any way. I think it would be perfect for a ceiling!
