Home office

Photobucket
I have decided to totally start decorating the house. It's a starter house for us so I don't want to spend a lot of money on it but I don't want the house to be so boring or dull, especially since I'm pregnant now, I really don't want it to be simple/boring with a baby on the way/here, I want it to be a beautiful place to come home to. So we started in Bliss's room it's still not done but I have a feeling that It will take a lot longer before it's finish & that's perfectly okay with me, because I want it to be perfect.
Our House is a 4 bedroom house, Master Bedroom, Bliss's Room and Two extra rooms that are full of boxes that belong to my dad because they are building their house still, which is hopefully going to be done by the end of the month & I can start decorating those rooms. I have decided that I'm going to turn the two rooms into Bliss's Playroom and My own office.
I have NO idea's for her playroom but I do have some Inspirations for my office, and I am so anxious to start. 
Heres a few of my inspirations.

A beautiful end to the weekend.

Photobucket 
Saturday Jerry & I went shopping about town for stuff for Bliss's room but didn't really find anything or that stood out except for the most perfect Curtain Rod from Hobby Lobby, but while we were at Target I came across a canopy for our porch that we just built but we weren't sure if it would fit or not so we left without it sadly, so we went home & this morning I got up and went measured and it would fit but it would definitely be a tight fit so we decided to go ahead and get it and if it didn't fit that we could put it in the back yard by the pool.
So I left and went to target get there and it wasn't there, they were sold out!! I was heart broken but I'm defiantly going to keep a look out for another one! So I ended up getting another Umbrella for the table because ours had broke in one of the horrible storms this year. While I was at Target Jerry put the second coat of paint for Bliss's room and I was praying that it turns out like what we were hoping for. On the way home I texted my friend Liz who's doing my bedding and she said she was going to head over because she finished Bliss's bedding and Curtains; Can we say YAY!!! She came over and I was utterly shocked at how wonderful it turned out.
Her beautiful Curtain Rod & Curtains & you can also see the color of the paint! 

Her fabulous Bedding! 
 

I couldn't be more happy with bedding and curtains; I think that they came out BEAUTIFULLY! 

To continue with my day Jerry also decided that we need to paint the shutters of our house because they are an awful faded green and I have always wanted black shutters and a front black door.
Before
After
I think it looks so much better!!

Darlings Nursery

Photobucket

Well we have finally decided on the nursery. I know, I know it only took 6 & half months and trust me it was freaking me out; because I'm the type of person that wants it done ASAP, but I have come to realize that the baby nursery is going to take longer cause there are so many little pieces that are going to pull it together.

We went to Lowes looking for a grey paint color because we weren't having any luck finding any metallic paint colors like we had wanted.  We were looking and I lucky came across Valspar Signature colors Brilliant Metals!! I was so happy when I came across it in the store that I was hopping up and down! lol
We were stuck between these two colors but I was nervous that the darker color was going to be to harsh with the black furniture, so we agreed on Simple Shimmer. Its a two coat paint process Jerry has painted the first coat which is like the main color and this weekend he is going to put the metallic look on; I am so excited to see how it turns out!! 

I have been looking a lot on Esty.com and I have to say that I am in LOVE with the owl themes. I have found the most percious owl lamp that is the perfect pink for her room that I'm going to buy. So her room is themed as: 
  • Snow Leopard print
  • Owls 
  • Colors: Pink, Silver, Black and White.

 I'm hoping it doesn't look weird being Snow Leopard & Owls, but the only thing that is really Leopard is the bedding. My Wonderful friend Liz is doing my bedding and she sent me pics the other day and all I can say is that it looks wonderful!! 
Here's a sneak peak. (These are taken on her sons bed)
This is the inside of my bump with the Pink Minky and black lace. (the brown sheet doesn't go with Bliss's bedding it will be a velvet pink like the bows on the next picture.)
The Outside of my Bumper; Snow Leopard with black lace. I love love my velvet pink bows, I think it ties it together beautifully!
& Here's her Bed Skirt. : ]

 I think Liz has done a fablous job she also is doing my curtains in the Velvet Pink Bows and they will look like this:

Last but not least my fabulous grandmother found me a dresser that I've wanted for her room.

Jerry is going to paint it black for me and where its gold paint it either Pink or Silver. I think its going to look so pretty!! Im so anxious to see how it turns out.

Well Im off to bed; in till next time! 
xoxo
