Moving...again...

Ok, I'm not actually moving until this summer.  BUT, I like to be prepared.

I've spent the last year accumulating teal, blue and green accessories, and they are here to stay!  For the next year or so anyway...I have a short attention span.  And after years of male roommates and their cliched love of dark brown furniture, I'm lightening things up.

I really want a light gray sofa and it needs to be feminine.  I'm craving some femininity.  The current front runner is American Furniture Warehouse's Camille Graphite Sofa.  Paired with two white durahide tub chairs, AFW also.  Durahide is key for white furniture for me.  As anal retentive as I am, I manage to still be messy.  The TV stand is actually a dresser from Ikea.  I'll either leave it gray or paint it white.  Decisions decisions.  I'm thinking I'll cut off the drawer face and reattach it with hinges.  Then I can hide the DVD player and cable box, but flip the face down when I need to use them.  And of course, they'll still pull out for access because it's a drawer.  I'm utterly pleased with this idea.


















The rug was just a fun color and I love it!  On it will be a coffee table just like this one.  I can't wait to make this!  The green will be perfect and I love doors!  It'll match a bunch of blue and green door artwork that I have.

These curtains may be completely over the top...but I'm really hoping once I move and see it all together that they're not.  I keep visiting them online and want to buy them!!  But patience and prudence have won out so far.  They could be magical for my navy and white spare room...but I digress.

I can't wait to decorate for myself.  Just me.  No male roommate banning flowers, disdaining anything pink, or raising their eyebrows when I come home with a new vase or set of candlesticks.  I'm kinda feeling like that zip-lining pig commercial.  Weeee weee weeeeeeee!  Pure adrenaline!  :)

Echelon Home Bedding Love

How much do I love this duvet cover by Echelon Home?  SO MUCH!
  Echelon Quatrefoil Duvet Cover Set
This color is "Peacock" and it also comes in "Midnight"...which would be perfect for my spare room!
Echelon Quatrefoil Duvet Cover Set

It's available on Amazon and for a pretty reasonable price.  Reasonable to me means under $100.  However, I have a boy currently living in my spare room, so now isn't the time to invest in white bedding!  Why don't they appreciate all these little decorative details?
