Animal Instincts

I am contemplating giving my apartment a little refresh. Now that my wedding is a distant memory...I can't believe I'll be married 6 months this weekend!...and spring is coming, I feel like the time has come for a a re-decorating project.

I'm loving the idea of incorporating a little animal print somewhere. I adore animal print and right now the only home decor element I have is a little throw pillow for one of my chairs. I'm definitly loving the idea of a throw rug or maybe a chair.


And I'm really liking the look of mixing color pieces or accents with animal print to brighten the whole thing up and not having it be so monochromatic. I think it's a more modern approach.

White Out

In anticipation of a yet another forecasted blizzard tomorrow (yeah let's see if this one really happens...) I've been dreaming of this comfy cozy and warm white washed room. I'd love to spend tomorrow snuggled in one of the sheepskin blankies in front of the fireplace. It would be a perfect mid-week escape.
