Paint Colors
So, I may have been scoping out real estate in the Philadelphia area yesterday…if I had a job I would be so ready to move on. I guess I’m not surprised–in high school I was ready to move on like junior year, and in college I was always dreaming about the future (though I was quite sad to leave the place in the end…). I have grand visions of how I’ll set things up that I realize I will not be able to afford, at least for a few years until I pay off all the student loans I’ve just taken out!!! My my my, I don’t like this whole loan business at all. Ah well, I can still dream! I really like these paint color ideas
Around the House
This is what I’d like to see when I walked around my house…
1. DIY projects!
2. clocks that pop!!!
3. midcentury modern furniture
4. shocks of color
5. old-fashioned shapes mixed with modern prints
6. unique accessories
7. a statement chandelier
8. photo montages
9. a side table desk
10. fun chairs
Fall
Now that I’m getting over my cold, I’ve decided to embrace the season which is usually my least favorite of seasons. There is something special about warm apple cider, homemade pasta, and snuggling up to read good books (I’m currently reading Jane Eyre), which invigorates me. Here are a few things I’ve found inspiring lately.
1. Daydreaming of walks, hand-in-hand, through expansive old farms at sunset.
2. These cute DIY winter votives (they remind me of a more grown-up room 10!)
3. Christmas shopping for those I love (possible to buy all handmade this year? I’d like to try.)
4. Warm, simple, feminine frocks.
5. Pretty bedrooms with bright orange, lime, olive, and white hues.
6. Writing notes to friends on cute stationary (wouldn’t this forest scene also look great on a mantle?)
7. Blue roses (newly developed by scientists)–how gorgeous!
Interiors!
This is a mega post to clear off a lot of the pics I have saved to the desktop. Right now they’re threatening to go off the page if I add any more! I’ve already had to dock my post it notes halfway off the screen… Anyway, I’ve come across a LOT of pretty interiors over the past…uh, several weeks…so now I’ll finally share them with you!
I love this shade of yellow, the built-in console, and the picture layout!
Such a calming bathroom.
Wow! What a terrace!
I like this idea of an island kitchen table…and I like the oval shape.
Similarly, really like this island desk setup with the consoles flanking both sides.
Mostly for this hutch.
More orange!
I love that coffee table.
Talk about symmetry! And a really pretty gray paint.
I really like this shade of green, and the way they mixed with white walls.
I am absolutely in love with the furniture pieces in the next two photos.
I love the color scheme of this room!!
Pretty chandelier.
Yeah…I could love here.
I like the idea of plant art in the kitchen.
More ceiling detail and suspended staircase.
This reminds me of the fireplace at Grandma and Poppa’s old house.
I like this end of the aisle bookcase idea!
I love the light and use of color!
A little overwhelming, no?
WOW! Awesome skylights form floor planks on this awesome terrace!
Cool shelving unit and chair…
Party garland!
Beautiful Oasis
Isn’t this house so bright and calming? I really enjoy it.
TOO Much Design
This is an example of when a designer just can’t contain themselves. Walking into this room makes me nervous and I could never sit down and ruin the symmetry of everything and really if anything else enters the room I would go crazy of busyness!!! Whew, no.
So Much Sitting on My Desktop
I apologize for the delay in updating this week… Unlike every other blogger, I seem to take the weeks off and pile all of my posts into the weekend haha!! I thought about updating a lot yesterday, since Whirlpool was off work and I was lazing around the house reading, but alas, I got much too caught up in Pride and Prejudice Anyway, back to the post at hand–LOTS of interiors I’ve come across recently. This first one I just love: (1) the gray, black, and yellow color scheme, (2) the louis XIV armchair, (3) those cute stainless steel vases I’m seeing everywhere these days…
Haha, this style was called “mod victorian” on the site…what do you think? I like the desk a lot, and the screen…prob would never have those walls though. But I kind of like the idea of defining a room with a big circular rug like that. 
A pretty, pretty bedroom. I could definitely live here. I love all the white (lately I’ve become obsessed with white beds!! And you really don’t need to worry that much about them getting dirty because you can always bleach them!!). But it just looks so light and crisp. I really like that color blue, and the painted stripes along the wall and ceiling are really fun… And I’m pretty much in love with shag carpets, and (velvet?) chaises. I even like that red chandelier!!! And of course who could say no to a bedroom with double doors leading out into the garden–yes please 
I liked this room…it looked very cozy. I especially like that striped body pillow, the brown chair, and those yellow accents in the back! I’d like to see an end table that was white and yellow instead of black…and I like the vase!
I pretty much only saved this for the mosaic table…which I actually COULD see having in my own home. But those bookshelves aren’t bad either. I really need a new shelf!! My books are taking over the apartment!!!!
Cute living room. I like all the light and the curtains (prob should get some curtains for our living area…will look into that when we go to IKEA), and the white, orange, and green color scheme is really nice and relaxing.
And finally…this home is in the shape of a half circle, which I find kind of amazing. The architecture of this house is really amazing, and I love those wood and white divider wall things, and the detail on the ceiling. And that fireplace!
This is a Restaurant?
Awesome!
