Shopping Trip Inspiration

Here is a little Shabby Chic inspiration from Angel's Antiques in Opelika, AL...

And then there is this cabinet. It's so much sweeter in person. If only I had $295 to splurge with.
* Please excuse the phone photos. It's easier to lug around.

Master.

...Bedroom, that is.
Our bedroom is pretty close to the light grey shade below AND...
We have a vaulted ceiling too! I would really like to darken the wall in the peak.

found @ AptTherapy

and put the bed against that wall like so...

found @ Life in the Fun Lane

& there is just something about this nursery. I can't put my finger on it. I sure do like it though.

Hello Style Files!

Style-Files...How have I gone so long without discovering it!?Love this coffee table...I found a more industrial version in real life. I wish I would have captured a photo of it. The star & moss arrangement are great touches. Love the wide-planked dark floor & that dresser!

What's not to love about this room!? The chairs, light fixtures, photographs, blue hallway..sweet.

Great collage of items. Frame, on top of frame, on top of frame!

small progress.

I stalked this shelf at the local antique mall for quite awhile. I was in love & secretly wishing the booth would be marked down because it was a little pricey. One day I splurged. I overly dramatically thought I could not live without it. Why I wanted so badly, besides its good looks....I had this daydream of Christmas stockings dangling from the hooks and a sweet wreath above. It was my 'mantle.'

These are my own photographs that I had printed as 8x10s and framed them in clearance frames from Target. I'm thinking these will go at the bottom of our stairs, but not quite sure yet.
I also hung blinds. I found a treasure of a trunk where I bought the shelf+hooks. The lady setting up the booth said she had too much stuff and she'd make me a deal. Coffee table/treasure trunk for $55! Score. We purchased an Ikea dresser that has been haunting my To Do list. Funny thing, taming my laundry is also on there.
