finally .friday.

so will and i are in the process of making his house "home". right now we are conquering the guest room. the walls are tan colored and i bought these two FABULOUS bedside tables that are a light blue distressed color- at the time i had no idea what i wanted the room to look like but the deal was too good to pass up. $80 for two tables. now that is something in my budget. they came from an antique mall on highway 51, not quite the antique prices i am used to- lets just say i am officially .obsessed.

my amazing parents have been so generous in letting us take some old furniture, bedding, and what not off of their hands- so i have a fun white matelasse that is now on the bed in the room. the bed actually butts up to a window... something i originally was SO against. but lately i have decided that the window kind of makes a pretty headboard- the window is just in desperate need of draperies! but i did come across some bedrooms that i love with beds in front of windows, so for now i am ok with it...

i love this second one, makes me want to jump in bed right now!

so once i got over the bed in front of the window dilemma, i came across some rooms with white bedding that i LOVE. which one is your favorite?? (images courtesy of elle decor and house beautiful)





i am particularly excited about the third picture. my current DIY project (that is sitting in will's garage untouched...oops) is turning some doors into a headboard. now i know, later on in 25 years when i have lil' ones, i can undo the queen headboard and make matching twins! its like a two for one and i didn't even know it .lucky. me

the fourth picture has some b.e.a.utiful blue and tan fabrics that i think would look really nice in the room. after seeing all these i may have to add a touch of green to the room as well.

on a final note- i am .super. excited for the weekend. i am so blessed to be marrying into a family that i love like i do. we are having our "delta engagement party weekend" including family lunch tomorrow, friend party tomorrow night, and brunch sunday afternoon. i am so excited i can hardly stand it. will update everyone on the festivities...

ps- day five of insanity- i really am .insane. to be doing this.

have a lovely weekend!
