Bedroom Update!

Some major changes have been happening around here lately.  We have gone from this:

To this!

Please pardon the camera.  Unfortunately, the best camera we own is an iPhone.  The rug came from Urban Outfitters and the chevron pillows came from Joss and Main from the most recent "Pillows Under $50" sale.  The "Hello Sexy" pillow was purchased at a local store called Feathernesters.  I highly recommend stopping by if you are in the Richmond area.  The patchwork quilt in the first picture was actually a wedding gift to my parents and my mom gave it to me a long time ago.  

We got rid of the chest at the end of the bed because all it did was encourage us not to put clothes away.   Also, we decided to live with the pink striped bed skirt for now since we are going to eventually upgrade to a queen-size bed.  

I'm thinking about painting my bedside table navy, possibly with chalk paint.  I like what I've seen so far in other people's projects and it might be perfect for the look I want.  I also have to paint the walls and put up some art because the walls are in need of some serious TLC.  

In the meantime, Billy is throughly enjoying the newly decorated bedroom: 

The Pillows Are Here!

I made my first purchase from Joss and Main last week.  These fabulous pillows!

Here is how they look on the couch.  I love how they pick up the orange in the picture above the couch.

We still need to find some simple green pillows and maybe one other pillow.  I love how they pick up the orange in the picture above the couch.

I was thinking about putting one of the pillows on the red leather chair.

Here is what the chair looks like now.

It has the bargain pillow I got from Garden Ridge the other week on it right now.  The green pillow at the back matches the green striped chair and helps pull the room together.

And here it is with the new pillow on it.

I think there is too much going on in the picture with the new pillow.  I'll have to try it in a few more places(meaning on the only other chair in the room) before I can be sure I want both pillows on the couch.
