TODAYS COLOR: GREEN

I miss owning a house and being able to paint my walls! We may or may not be buying a house in the next 6 months. We are undecided, but when I think about painting rooms bright colors.....I want one. I missed doing these Today's Color post! So here is one with some fun GREEN rooms!!!

Inspiration: IKEA Display Bedroom

Last month when we went to IKEA I fell in love with this display bedroom. I love the colors and furnishings! Have you heard of Chip It? This actually was the first time I used it.
I am very surprised that there was no purple in the chips! Isn't this light fixture awesome? You can check it out {HERE}.
I love well decorated IKEA displays. This color scheme is amazing!
Hopefully they have some new displays next time I go!

Design Board - My Guest Bedroom {think green}

I have been dreaming up a design for My Guest Bedroom. I want to buy most of my stuff from antique shops and thrift stores. (minus the mattress and bedding. Gross.) I am not against buying a cool vintage bedspread or blanket if it's clean. I am obsessed with the color green {today} and being GREEN. I thought it would be cute and fun to kinda have that theme in the guest bedroom...
The bed frame is from IKEA. The pillow is from JcPenney. Everything else is just things I found doing google image searches for vintage items and earth related artwork. The bedding is from Macy's....
I love the crisp clean look of this bedding. I think it would be perfect to balance out all the bright accessories I would like to put into the room. The price on the other hand, NO!!! I could never spend that much on bedding. I am not wired that way. I think it's an easy look and style to duplicate on a shoe string budget. (It's just white!) I am sure I can find something at Ross, TJ Maxx or Home Goods. I decided that my vintage green curtains were a great inspiration piece for my design. Green looks good with so many colors, but I lean towards adding pops of yellow and aquas to the room. I think the color scheme will go well with vintage accessories and furniture.

1 2 3I am sure kelly green and yellow is out of style this year. Seems like last year that is all you saw everywhere. Well lucky for me I don't follow design trends,...I follow what my heart desires. (You should 2!) As much as I want to stick to only shopping for things at thrift stores, I am sure I will find some cute little ceramic owl on a clearance rack at Pier 1! With all this said, I am going shopping today. The sun is out and it's way to nice to sit inside on my computer.

LIME GREEN BATHROOMS

Something happened to me in the last week. I fell in love with the color green. Now don't get me wrong, lime green has always been a color close to my heart!!! Suddenly though I find myself wanting to redecorate my apartment bathroom with it! Here are some bathrooms that I find inspiring....

I found this Trellis patterned shower curtain and think I may like it for my bathroom. Of course I would get green bath towels. The vase I just like, but since it is kelly green I don't think it would work. I would love to paint my bathroom a bright shade of lime green, but I don't feel like having to paint it back with it is time to move!
