an eye for design

everyone says that once you have a house, you always have a "project" to work on.  well, i'm looking forward to it.  i LOVE to decorate!  decorating my classroom is probably what i like most about teaching.  i can't wait to have a whole house to design!  i don't want to rush into anything or try to decorate it all at once.  i want to take my time and make sure it comes together room by room.  i have lots of ideas and have already bought a few things.  johnathan and i registered for some other things that will help to make everything come together.  while we're waiting to move in, here are some inspiration rooms that i've found online that i really like!

i like how cozy this living room is.  i also really like the calming, beachy colors.

i like the dark wood furniture and the pops of color.

this room is cozy too.  i like the coffee table and end table.

i like these couches.  they are similar to what johnathan and i found.  i also like the different patterns in the pillows and rug.  the bookshelf is cute too.

i like how clean and pretty this living room is.  the pillows are fun and the whole thing just feels calming!

i like this kitchen because it has light green and our kitchen has light green too.  i also like the white accents.  i've bought a few white things for our kitchen and we've registered for a few too.

this is actually the table we bought for the kitchen!!  i like that it's countertop height.  it'll be fun to sit at!

i found this shower curtain at bed bath and beyond and loved it so much that my mom went ahead and bought it for us.  i then began the search for some matching bedding!

after lots of googling and ordering a different bedding set, i finally found the matching bedding!  i love it so much and can't wait to use it!  if you know me then you know how much i love my bedding!  johnathan hates all the pillows......

i'm not a green person but for some reason i loved this bedding the first time i saw it online!  maybe cause it's steve madden (and i love his shoes).  anyway, i couldn't stop looking at it.  i had to buy it.  so if you want to come visit, this is what you'll be sleeping on!  i love it so much that i may have to sleep in there myself!  :)

i really like this guest bathroom.  while we won't have lavendar walls, i do think it's pretty.  our guest bath will have some lavendar in it though!
