Oh, How Pinteresting Wednesday!

Yeah. I'm still just as obsessed with Pinterest. When I get some time (oh, and money!) I really want to re-do my living room. Currently, the accent colors are rust orange and dark red. I'm wanting something lighter and fresher. I just need to swap out the accessories and mantel decor mostly.

Here are some pins that are inspiring me!

I love the beachy feel and the pale aqua, green and white. Can't wait to get working on it! I love Pinterest for projects like this. In the past I would make word documents with inspiration photos or have bookmarks everywhere. This is so much better and so much more fun!

What are you pinning? Are you obsessed like me?!

Decorating for fall

I got the urge to decorate this weekend - so I bought a few new accessories and knick knacks to make my house feel a little more like fall.

I focused mostly on the mantle - I bought some leaves and berries swag for $5, some fake pumpkins for $3 and added those to some other things I had around the house already.

It's still not perfect, but I'm going to look for some other things this week - I might change things up and use a couple of lanterns like these:



And I'd love to create a garland to drape underneath the mantle like these beauties:


from Stop Staring and Start Sewing


from Taylor Design


from all sorts

I'm thinking this might be a good project for this coming weekend!

Stay tuned for more fall decorations - the dining room centerpiece is still in progress!
