Peep Show

I really didn't give much thought to decorating until I had a place to call my own. I figured it was a waste of time and money when I'd just be moving in a year anyway, and there was no guarantee that the decor I bought would fit into my next dwelling....

So when I moved into our house, I sort of became this kid in a candy shop. And though I didn't have the classic reason to nest... Nest I did.

Our living room was my first big project. I had this 'uge wall to fill up above my couch, and it sat vacant for months. My original thought was to put a big art piece up, but I was never satisfied with what I found. (Me never satisfied? Wha?) ...And in a stroke of luck, while my parents were up visiting, my mom took me into a Z Gallerie to browse the art section. I fell for this botanical silhouette piece that she snuck up to the register and surprised me with as a house warming gift... Little did she know at the time that the painting would be my inspiration for that 'uge space.

I soon found a sister painting and some awesome shelves and the rest is history... And probably my favorite wall in the house.
Thanks, The Mama. And just so you know... You're my inspiration for a lot more than just a wall.

P.S. L ~ I know you love the pillow chop.
