Grown Up Stuff

I finally found my bed set.  Only been in the house two years, and have had the bed for a couple months.  I had been looking for awhile, but couldn't find exactly what I wanted.  I knew I wanted something blue/purple-ish, and no brown or red.  There is enough brown in this house, I wanted color and I wanted bright!  Most of the blue bedding I saw had brown in it or I didn't like the design - flowery crap.  Not really my style.  Finally searching some images, one caught my eye.  And the fact that it was on sale, I purchased it instantly.  It very simple, but totally my style.  The other awesome thing is it is a coverlet, more of a light weight blanket.  Here in Texas, we don't need the super thick comforters.

 

 

I only ordered the coverlet and none of the extra stuff, just to be sure I liked it, which I did.  So I went back and ordered the pillow shams.  Next up, is a gray bed skirt and some gray sheets.  Then some throw pillows - gray with teal and purple.

 

I also need to buy new curtains and I'm debating painting the walls.  Even just a light gray, maybe an accent wall, who knows.  But I am getting there!  Might be next year by the time it gets done, but the rooms are actually looking like they are supposed to.

 

The only thing left on my list is patio furniture.  And much like the bedding, I am ready to buy as soon as I find something I like!
