Bring new life to your dark blue walls with a raffia-edged mirror: <\/strong>For the ultimate finishing touch, try beautifying your cobalt or royal blue walls with a large, decorative mirror trimmed with tan raffia.

Use raffia mats to contrast against your blue and white living room: <\/strong>To instantly revamp your living room, turn to raffia mats placed on end tables. Arrange a series of blue and white patterned accent pillows on a basic beige couch, and add a simple light wooden coffee table. For a finishing touch, use a blue and white striped area rug, white lampshades and ivory painted windows to illuminate the room.<\/p>\n
