Let's Talk Blinds

We moved into our house last April and still have not gotten any blinds installed at our house. We only have the temporary blinds and they look horrible. 100% of the reason we don't have blinds is because i really want plantation shutters. I have had my heart set on them but they cost a fortune so i've been dragging my feet on getting a quote. I finally got a quote on them the other day and i can do our house 4 times in faux wood plain blinds for the price of plantation shutters. This alone makes me want to go with plain but i still haven't made up my mind. It doesn't help that i am super indecisive either. The main reason i am hesitant is because i have one domed window and it would look ridiculous with square blinds in the window. Plantation shutters would be custom fit to the window so i wouldn't need to have drapes around that one window if i didn't want. Which of course, i don't. It couldn't be that easy could it?

Practice arrangement

I have needed to get flowers for my urn i got from my personal trainer for one of my wedding presents. Well, i finally went to my local Hobby Lobby (only because i had a coupon for 40% off all Wilton products). While walking in, i saw the HUGE selection of flowers they had. I chose dark red and ivory. The colors go well in our bedroom. I'm proud of how it came out! Now i can't stop looking for things to spruce up and decorate.

Fabrics and Canvas Love

My favorite type of art is stretched canvas so, I decided to cover some stretched canvas with fabric for art in two of my rooms in my house. The black, white, and pink fabric i will use in my workout room and the blue, green, and brown fabrics will go in my guest bedroom. I love colorful patterns. They came out much better than i thought they would. Now if i can hang them on the wall!
