Get with the GREY

All the newly renovated homes are jumping on the GREY bandwagon. If you feel like getting with this cool tone, I've got some great ideas for you! Flooring is one of the biggest changes people are making, and when you can't do a dark wood in AZ, why not try a grey laminate - easy to install and easy to clean! If you can't make any huge changes, Restoration Hardware has some beautiful grey fabric choices on many incredible sofas, or splurge on a silk and wool rug from ABC Home (my favorite place for rugs!).  My two favorites though are the grey and white marble wallpaper and the backsplash.  This tile would be gorgeous in a kitchen or a bath, and it's from your local Home Depot. Are you feeling the grey?

Decor Wishes

I have 2 things I want to do to my apartment - make it a little less girly yet a little more accessorized....are those achievable at the same time?! Well, I would settle for the latter =)

Wishing these were in my house now...

I know one day my pink chair and floral painting will have to (hopefully) trade places with a handsome man.  In that case, I better brush up on my decorating for the sexes....

So ME Room

If only I could change my room to be more like this! I love these colors, patterns, mixture of modern and vintage, neon lights, and rich wood.  Not to mention the $1k cashmere throw blanket...oh me oh my.  It's also the bedroom to this living room....and not even on purpose!

Cheaper Chic

Realizing that I usually post quite expensive furniture rooms, I attempted to design one that is a little more affordable.   I wanted it to be classic, fresh, but still chic!  I personally shop at West Elm, Pier 1, Z Gallerie, and Cost Plus, so I am happy to use the stores that I know and love.
