Shabby meets Cottage
Tuesday, December 28, 2010
Forget the 15 bridal magazines that I've subscribed to; just give me some shabby chic meets cottage interior design magazines. I've been spending 4 of the last 7 days in Barnes and Noble and let me tell you, this place sucks you in like some kind of vortex. Even though I've got my nose in a series right now, I just have an impulse to buy more books. I don't like to borrow or rent books . . . there is something about the smell of a brand new book and to know it's only yours makes it that much better.
Anyway . . . where was I? Oh! Interior design magazines. Yes. I. Love. Them. I forewarned Josh in a nice way. I said, hey babe, when you're done playing your video game, can you come look at these magazines to see what I really like and what you're getting into? He never came. I took that as a sign of "Honey, I trust you." Score! :) I have finally nailed the look that I am going for. That shabby chic meets warm cottage. Think it can't happen? Oh, it can. Just you watch! ;) I even convinced him that as long as I can gather things from thrift stores, antique shops, and barn sales, he won't have to spend much money on "real" furniture. Again, he didn't respond so I took that as a big "Yes! You're too cool and I love that you save us money all the time!" *clears throat and bats eyelashes* ;)
I will have to post some photos of what I'm talking about another time!
