Chambray Blue

Chambray blue is a delicate gray-blue color with the strength of denim and the softness of a favorite vintage tee at the same time. Chambray gets its name from the plain woven fabric that mimics a lightweight denim. Because the fabric chambray is relaxed, chambray blue is often used to evoke peace and tranquility in a home. When you use chambray blue in paint, on fabrics, or as accents throughout the home, you're saying this home is inviting, warm, and well-lived in, much like your favorite chambray shirt. These are all good traits to convey in a home. Chambray blue can help you achieve just about any style you desire. For instance, if you want to achieve a more elegant look, pair chambray blue with white, cream, and light gray. Add sparkly accents, such as chandeliers or mirrored furniture. If garden chic is what you're going for, layer colorful floral prints atop a chambray comforter, or offset a chambray blue sofa with vibrant drapes in pink, teal, or yellow. For more of a rustic setting, use chambray with a natural wood tone. When you incorporate soft pink into a room with a lot of chambray blue, you can achieve a delicate feminine look. Chambray blue is a very versatile color. Play with it and other colors in your home to obtain the style you desire.
