This week has been all about lace fabrics!
I like lace!
And while many think of it as something for old ladies
or Victorian settings,
I beg to differ!
It Is All About Lace Curtain Fabrics
Tan Fabrics- It Is All About Neutrals!
The color of the week this week is tan…
not brown, not beige, tan.
Tans can be warm or cool,
moving along the color spectrum from more blue to more yellow.

As that is usually the warmest part of the day,
I headed down to Pemaquid beach around 1 pm.
