Tybee Tints: Looking For Something In Blue

Leave a Comment / CandyLand of Cottages / David Barwick

We love the coastal colors of our Mermaid Cottages and they each have special and unique Tybee tints. Looking for something in blue? Well, on Tybee Island there’s the sky. The ocean. The blue-gray of the dolphins who frolic and thrive. Then, there are the blues of our cottages, their exterior trims, their shutters, their doors and their pops of blues throughout the interiors. Whatever shade gives you calm and peace and that beachy vibe, you’ll find them all here.
