I immediately decided to focus on the room that is normally neglected in any home, the master bedroom. Originally I had visions of neutrals-navy blues, taupes, and creams, but then I remembered, we're in our early twenties! We should be bold and daring
He requested the following:
- Burnt Orange
- Blues-Gray blues
- Chocolate Brown
- Gold
- Kelly Green
Um...sure! Well, he requested "green", not kelly green, but when I showed him that "green" included chartreuse, he specified the "regular green" which I take to mean Kelly green, since it's my favorite green!
Anyway....to get back on track...here's the plan:
-As soon as I looked over his list, the Celerie Kemble Hot House fabric in the Spark colorway popped into my mind. He signed off (thankfully...that fabric ain't cheap!) and my little brain got to work.
-I'm thinking a soft, blue-ish green-ish gray for the walls, along the lines of Sherwin William's Silvermist (SW 7621). We had a similar color in our base house's living room, and it's beautiful!
-I'd like to work with our existing furniture, so we're just going to give everything a nice deep stain, most likely Minwax's Bombay Mahogany. I was hoping these pulls would work, but after seeing them in person, they might be too shiny. But never fear, Martha has other pieces in her collection that might do the trick!
-I hope to keep the bedding simple with solid sheets from BB&B, and this classic duvet from Pottery Barn.
-I stumbled upon these great panels while browsing for window treatments for my office. I love the stone-y blue! (Oh yes, stone-y is a word)
-For accessories, I'm thinking these yummy pillows in paprika, these from AllModern.com and two of the sweet little lamps from IKEA. I'm also eye-ing this sassy mirror from Zgallerie that'd be perfect over our bed!
-And I'm still on the lookout for a good chair, so let me know if you see anything!
So what do you think? Totally your taste? Or too wild for you to sleep at night? Let me know what you think! And of course, I'll do my very best to document the process!
