I know that I haven't posted too much the past few weeks, but I promise there is a reason to this madness! I've been working on two projects that you will see very soon (hopefully!) and school work has become insane as midterms approach.. and I've been getting more hours at work, which is a blessing but I've been left with virtually no blog time! Plus.. having a big scrape and huge bump on my nose along with countless bruises and scratches isn't very inspiring to get up and take pretty outfit pictures. But I am doing much better & thank you so much for all of your "get well" wishes! Alas... here are some photos that are giving me some really great, unique ideas for decorating our future place & what we will be looking for!
The last picture is the one that most reminds me of Patrick and I's future apartment. I feel like it has all of the elements we want. First of all, what won him over with this picture is the guitar hanging on the wall. He probably has some critique to say about it, like "Too bad it's not a Martin D-35 with a sunburst finishing..." I don't even know what that means. Anyways.. I love how it's a nice combination of modern and vintage, which I feel describes us to a tee. The books are a necessity, and if you noticed beautiful books and bookshelves were in a few of these photos. Yesterday I discovered an amazing antique mall practically in my backyard (how did I never know about this???) and there was a vendor with the most beautiful vintage books that I will have to start buying little by little to fill tons of bookshelves!

Love these photos! Especially the one with the pictures hanging on the wall...the owl and butterflies are my favorite, and the wallpaper is amazing! I can't wait to see your future place, I can only imagine how awesome it's going to look :)
ReplyDeleteThis is a great post. I love these kinds of photos, I considered pursuing a career in interior design. I totally agree on the mix of modern and vintage - that's my favorite kind of look!
ReplyDeleteI love the last picture too!! Exposed bricks are so much fun to have an apartment. Looking forward to some yummy Pho!!
ReplyDeleteOooh, I want to live in that kitchen (2nd to last picture)! It's exciting that you'll have a new place to decorate with what you two want!

Ah, a girl after my own heart. Our next house will have built in bookshelves. I've told my husband this. TOLD. I'm tired of my crappy 18 million Target ones that just break after two years. I love all these photos!

the picture with the 3 book shelves are amazing. its exciting you can plan to decorate your own place!
ReplyDeleteThese inspiration picture are so pretty! I'm totally crushing with the style you are going for with your new place! :) Seriously those bookshelves inspiration are nice... Django and I place is filled with bookshelves but maybe not in a good way... they are too much overcrowded with book and gadget.
