My friend Shannon is a wealth of knowledge when it comes to creating a well-appointed home. (I'm going to see if she'll let me do a home tour of her place on this blog...y'all would die. Amazing.) With her help, I've been able to choose and purchase pieces that I'm so excited to put in our new house!
I thought I'd show you what we've bought so far, as well as the paint colors used in the house and an inspiration board to give you an idea of accent pieces I'll be pulling in to create a finished look.
I've posted a few sneak peek photos on my Instagram account throughout the previous month (username is ablondeambition), so check it out if you want to see a snip-it of our home!
We get to occupy next week and I couldn't be more ready.

these pieces are all so beautiful. I have NO decorating skills at all, I enlist the help of a friend as well
ReplyDeleteWe have similar tastes...whites with pops of metallic and also in the woods. ALthough I live in a baby apartment in Chicago. I like decorating. It's one more extension of creativity and I love buying pieces and then adding a special touch to make them exactly what I need them to be (DIY in a non holly hobby way) :) I can't wait to see your place done up!
ReplyDeleteYes to all of this! We would have made great roommates ; )
DeleteBeautiful! I love everything you've picked. Joss & Main is always my go to for unique pieces, but looks like you've already discovered that :) Can't wait to see how it all turns out.
ReplyDeleteI used collonnade grey in my first home and absolutely loved it. It is the perfect shade! Can't wait to see it in your new place!
ReplyDeleteSo glad you liked it! I loved how it was enough color to give the room some depth, but light enough to keep it from being drab!
ReplyDeletecute color choices!! i think everything works together. have you looked on Houzz? there's LOTS of great house inspiration there. xo jillian - cornflake dreams
ReplyDeleteLove all of these! Where did you get that pendant light?
ReplyDeleteSaving this post because I'm the exact same way!! I know what I want but I have a hard time with the execution. We are moving over Labor Day though so I'm going to have to get my act together! Love everything here!
ReplyDeletei have found some great pieces from hobby lobby, and i always get it for 50% off. [score] oh, and tj maxx has some great pieces for affordable prices, too. :) i love decorating!
ReplyDeleteI am the exact same way -- see lots of inspirational ideas I love, but when it comes to deciding on something for my house, I feel overwhelmed with options! So glad you have a good friend to guide your steps. :) I love the ideas you are considering!
ReplyDeleteI love the pieces that you've purchased so far! You are going to have such a lovely space :)

I love all of the white! I really love incorporating white into rooms. I also love the grey walls.
ReplyDeleteLOVE the style you are going with. It is going to look so chic! I like shopping for decor at Homegoods/Marshalls/TJ. If you are shopping for lamps, pictures for walls, rugs, tablecloths, vases, etc-- that's your place. I buy my towels at Sam's (best price for full, soft, fluffy towels). Also Target and Ikea have really chic pieces at affordable prices. And you won't be so bummed out when a baby gets it dirty. :-) Good luck can't wait to see the move in reveal!
