most of my house was inspired by trying to make my hubby feel part of the home & trying to keep me here as well. He hated my black. So we are going with nature which we both love. Expect the kitchen. Since I'm in it more I kept a dark color without it being black. I get alot of ideas from HGTV. Most I can't afford now but they are great thoughts for later.

I was inspired by whatever happened to be given to me.
My mom was a huge help and is responsible for almost every piece of furniture we have. Since my hubby and I were so young when we got married, we didn't want to start out on the wrong foot by getting in debt and buying everything that we wanted. If it's really important to us, we will get is someday when we can afford it without debt. That's my philosophy. ![]() Anyway, we've made do with what we have and I think it looks pretty nice. We will add more and more of our own personal touch as our financial situation allows, but I refuse to go into debt just to look pretty. But when we do buy all of our own new stuff, nature will definitely be a big inspiration to me. I love the earthy but sophisticated look.

i was inspired but statues and michelangelo so when i was building our house i saved and saved and saved and so i know how large statues of david and venus and aphrodite which is the same as venus or something like that
didnt study it just liked it and then i did like whitewash or antique looking furniture and entertainment center and then i boughtmyhubs and big screen just for him. my bedroom i wanted a more bed & breakfast feel when we first moved in i did a sexy leopard marilyn monre type them and i really liked it but when i boughtmy new bed i couldnt find any covers to go on it in leopard so i singled out some beachy looking ocean bed & breakfast type thing and went with it but i really need a color to paint it though, i want a light yellow but i dont have any yellow in my bed covers but i think that it may help or it may hurt not to sure yet but my daughter is a twin so she still shares a room with her brother but their big brother did race cars and that was before disney cars came out so now he wants to do his room in cars the movie but im like nah but i am thinking of painting his bed a dark blue color and going with that theme like a boys sports theme or something i dont know though there are so many colors i can paint it i also like orange but not many kids want an orange room so im thinking maybe like a beachy blue. that way i can work with it. but well see ill post pics whenevre i get it done, |
