#34 "wow" board

So all the inspiration that I've been gathering over the past several months has snowballed into the mother of all inspiration boards...inspiration boards within an inspiration board!

It has really taken shape, I think; without being too matchy-matchy. I'll be sticking with this color palette because I think it's the perfect blend of romantic and rustic. Think chalkboards with hints of lessons learned still visible, a typewriter sends well wishes and honors a great grumpy old man, lace and silver add elegance, while garlands of eucalyptus, collected artifacts and rustic woods enhance the homey, down-to-earth feel...eh, eh? Creamy peaches, girly pinks, and cool refreshing blues celebrate a casual summer in Saint Louis.

So without any MORE ado...the "wow too much stuff" board!

#29 color redux, part two

So I always write my posts and then post pictures, but for some reason Explorer (which I never use but Firefox is being a little bitch!) doesn't want to cut and paste pictures...so here you go...my early? yet late Christmas gift to you! Enjoy!

So a couple of posts back, I was lamenting to all 9! of you about how I was unstatisfied with my color scheme, etc, etc. Well, I've revised it yet again! Yay! Oh brother!

Here I was going for a blending of more soft romantic colors I've been loving lately (i.e.-creams and peaches, light pinks...cough, Style Me Pretty) and the some of the bolder colors that I think reflect my personality (i.e.-loud and punchy, lol!). I think this "flavor" board sums it up pretty nicely, and considering I just spent 2 hours hemming and hawing with our potential florist about what style I was going for I think this board is right on time! Now I don't have to look like a neurotic, crazy person, I can just say...that...right there is what I want!
