{ pick one }

I spent some time today online looking for fabrics for the "apartment".

I found lots and lots of lovely fabrics, and I'll share some others I loved with you in another post.

I asked Miss "P" which ones she liked best, and she chose the ones featured below in the photos.

I took my original image, and altered it in Photoshop to create a visual for myself...

a little road map if you will... I want to spend time planning so when I get ready to do the work

there will be no questions as to what I'm going to do.

I'm very visual, so this will help me in my decision making process.

Can't say for sure it will look exactly like either one of these,  I could change some things,

but this is the general direction so far.  I always start out with a fabric choice first,

This gives me a good start in the right direction.

::  OPTION ONE ::

{ soothing & sophisticated }

Wall colors are not exact, but may be something similar.

The sofa is actually a little more light blue and pretty in person, so the fabrics should work well.

I'm trying not to use anything too cutesy, because I want this to last a few years,

and we are getting into the preteen years soon.

The artwork on the walls is by Marisol Spoon, I adore her work,

and each of these prints has a little animal perched upon a lovely little girl.

We are still working with an animal theme, though more woodland than domestic.

The paint by numbers are still an option as well because we have them, but I really love these.

:: OPTION TWO ::

{ fun & funky }

{ the middle pillow fabric is Mocca by Alexander Henry, 

the other two pillows are Sunny Ta-Dot by Michael Miller,

and the lamp shade fabric is Lotus by Amy Butler }

This option is all about color and fabric...fun & funky...

Soooo,  WHICH ONE DO YOU LIKE??

Inquiring minds want to know...
