Speaking of decorating, it is the thing that fills my days. I spend hours online everyday searching for the perfect rug(which I found) or the perfect couch(which I bought!!) or the perfect ceramic elephant(which I hope exists.) I've become obsessed with making things pretty. ThisYoungHouse.com and Ree over at the Pioneer Woman fill my mornings with "pretty." It's sad. When I discovered Ree I spent 1 whole week reading every post ever written on that site. And yesterday, I had to physically stop myself from reading every post in the archives of TYH past last June.
I've always known how to put together an outfit, but the task of putting together a whole room was always overwhelmingly daunting to me. I used to buy things that went together whether I truly liked them or not...and I ended up hating everything. Now I buy only what I love and have to trust that somehow things will work. And they always do. My apartment is starting to fill up with pieces that truly make me happy, make me smile when I see them.
But still I wish there were a little more pink. Darn Boy!
