Sacre Bleu!

The month has gotten the best of me…too.  But just hot enough to grow some awesome INDIGO.

Yesterday I picked a couple of pounds of leaves from my garden and made a batch..

It starts out green,

but there is blue in those leaves….

Sacre bleu!

What To Do With Blue

The Roy B Giv search continues with our hosts,  Jennifer Coyne Qudeen and Julie B. Booth.  This month, BLUE is at the top of the color heap.   This month I present useful applications for this color, favored for it’s calming nature.  (All work by poster)
