Orange chevron table success.
Other decorating projects...
uhhh...
I have lost direction.
So this blog's main intention is to get me back on track.
I have a lot more I want to do but when I'm out & about shopping at stores I get really distracted.
& I am like ohh this is neat, oh this is neat too??
Hmm, then I end up with junk that I end up returning.
So I really need focus.
By the way, I got so desperate to blog that I am sitting by the pool right now at 11:15 pm & blogging.
I was in the clubhouse but it was way too cold & I am sick of air conditioning.
So instead I am going to get eaten alive again.
Whatever, blogging is therapeutic & so worth it to me right now!
What I still need want to do:
1. More decorative objects for my bookshelf
{Note: I love this! I know this is originally for a wedding by Martha Stewart but I think it would be super cute to have a few of these on my bookshelf!!! I like how her website has all the directions on how to do this... this is definitely on my to-do list!!! The candlesticks themselves are from Woodcrafter, & then they are painted with Montana Gold Spray paint which can be bought from Dick Blick. Easy enough!!! & another project that is relatively cheap!} |
2. More orange accents
So the orange chevron nightstand turned out amazingly!
But other than that orange all I have are 2 vases with orange flowers.
Which, don't get me wrong, are great accents but it is just not enough for my liking!
So I have a few ideas in mind:
{Note: how amazing would this be!? This picture frame is by Campbell & Co. It would correspond to the orange chevron night stand... & it's only $10. I think this is something I'm going to buy FORSURE as in probably I'll buy it tomorrow. Sorry checking account. I'll make up for it someday when I am racking in the dough ;) This shop is awesome though, they have the cutest rings that are only $5! I might have to purchase one of those too.. & they even have orange chevron coasters. It's love at first sight} |
{Note: these orange pillows are from Festive Home Decor & they are an amazing Etsy vendor! I bought some chevron print pillows from them & I am just obsessed with all their designs! I would highly recommend checking out their shop. Especially because not only do they have some of the best designs I've ever seen, but they are so affordable!!} |
3. Revamp my dresser
I know my dresser is brand new & all, but it is by far the boring-est thing ever to look at.
It's just plain white & has nothing special about it.
& after seeing this I am slightly obsessed & drooling...
{Note: these art project pictures are from Ohdeedoh & I am just drooling at how awesome it turned out & really am going to attempt something like this because I love this look! It is done using something called O'verlays by Danika Cheryle. The best part about them is they are affordable!!! Ahhhh!!!!! But seriously I am obsessed.}
4. More wall decor
One idea I have is using magazines & artsy pictures that I like & getting a bunch of them & then getting a bunch of white or black frames & framing them to make something like this:
{Note: this picture is from NL Designs. & let me tell you, once I found this girl's blog I was hooked. Not only is her name also Nicole, although she spells it Nichole... but she has incredible style! I love everything on her site!! And I definitely envy her living space & some of her work. She is an inspiration & I would recommend checking out her site!} |
{Note: these are from Target! They are super fun... I wonder if this would be an easy DIY project?} |
