#4:

pink living room updates...

here's what i have worked out so far:

 

i want this pink to be warm and subtle.

but still pink.

i want it to feel primarily traditional with minimal clean lines.

(???!!!)

the room is small and it gets tons of light. 

the sofa is warm white.

getting 2 (really long) bolsters made with camel silk velvet with pink velvet trim, for the back of the sofa.

i want that west elm rug in every room in my house but i will settle for the living room.

i will fashion some art that is moody and dark. or maybe more color.

not sure yet.

there is a tall antique tea table that the lamp goes on that i am going to either paint or do something fun to.

there is also a mid century/asian-y chair and ottoman that i want to recover.

that is where i am stuck.

i am feeling olive green but not sure..

i need more pattern..but i am not sure which.

 

 

tell me what to do.

 

 

 

some things i find awesome..

 

fuck yeah unicorn heads!

 

 

this dad-blern chicken coop has me craigslisting chickens.

 

 

wow.

 

 

the collecting of the things.

 

 

for my next trick i will wrap a canvas in aluminum foil and paint over it.

 

 

 

and finally...

 

 

i find this very very awesome.
