I've been in my new home for a few months now and while its pretty exciting I'm also a bit all over the place with how I want my home to look. However, I know for sure how I want it to feel...comfortable, airy, warm, modern and clean with a little bohemian flair and dope art work on the walls. Oh, and a touch of pink but not too girly! See my crazy dilemma?
Overall, I just want it to feel like me. While I can appreciate a beautifully decorated home I love walking into someone's space and it feeling just like them! After all, it's the details that can bring character into a home and I'm ALL about the details honey! Another MAJOR thing for me and in some ways a challenge is resisting the urge to donate my old, existing furniture and just starting anew!
ME: Throw everything away and start over!
BANK ACCOUNT & NEW MORTGAGE: Girl please!(Laughs all disrespectful-like at my hopes and dreams)
Sooo...while I don't totally hate the furniture that came with me from all my apartment living. There are a few things I plan to bring into the mix just to freshen things up a bit.
1) Starting With... FRINGE!!!
Lately, I've been drawn to all things fringe. Especially rugs and pillows. Switching out pillows and adding a cool rug is the easiest way to give a room a new look. In my case, I plan on keeping my couch but pretty much replacing everything else so I'm starting with recovering some of the existing pillows and adding a few new ones. I've been eyeing a few in which I'll be sharing with you in a later post!

2) Bring in some...WARM TONES!!!
First off, the walls in my house are ALL grey. Seee!
3) Plants, Greenery, Nature!!!
My rule for decor is to always have something live in the house so one of my goals is to become a serious plant mama this year! I'm not sure if I have a green thumb but believe I have one deep down somewhere. With a little trial and error mixed with some google I think I can manage to figure this thing out!
Plants are always a great finishing touch to a room! Not only are they pretty visually but they have some pretty cool health benefits like reducing stress and improving productivity. Who doesn't need that??? Amen!
So, I expect to be plant shopping and I will most likely add a mix of live and faux plants

Part of my Living Room
I think bringing in some brown and rust tones will warm up the place and take away some of the coolness in the grey walls. Of course, mixing in some patterns and textures which instantly creates interest...
