It's pretty pathetic that I have yet to cross off more than one thing on my summer bucket list this year. I'm sad and embarrassed. Since tomorrow is my birthday, I am planning to pick up some spirits in order to develop my signature summer drink. The instagram wall idea has really got me thinking about decor.
Our poor little living room is pathetic. We have old, hand-me-down furniture. It's really a beautiful room though. It's the room that we and guests spend the most time. It is the first room that I really want to invest in decorating. The walls were already painted when we moved in, and I love the color. A grayish-blue with white trim. I've been fervently debating decor ideas and have a pretty clear idea of what I want.
We have three large windows on the back wall, and they're currently holding these terrible red, suede curtains (what can I say? They came with the house, and we're cheap). I adore these simple but chic curtains. I think they'll pair perfect with the grey couch.
Obviously this rug is going to tie the curtains in together. Perfection.
Then it's the deer head (but I promise it would be all white) that would be the focus of the gallery wall that meets your eye when you walk in the door. It would be surrounded by instagram pics and fun printables and other Pinterest DIY ideas.
First priority is the couch & coffee table...

I was going to say you can have my deer head, but he is definitely not all white. And my husband would kill me if I ever gave him away...like legit we probably wouldn't be married anymore.
Girl, you have got some seriously sweet style sense. I love your whole plan! Have you browsed Etsy for a fake deer mount? I actually really love the antelope or whatever it is in that last pic. Surprisingly chic and a little bit exotic.
All this seriously makes me want to redecorate my whole place. Ugh. My wallet does NOT thank you - but I do, lol

I love all of your ideas. Check Rooms to Go too for couches. I bought a nice on there with a chair and ottoman and they're still serving me well. They have good prices and no interest financing where you can pay it in smaller amounts monthly and not have to pay the interest if you pay it off before 12 or 24 months. That's what I did when I first furnished by apartment. And now they're in our house and look great. And the antlers and instagram prints is a great idea too. I can't wait to see your upgrades.
I'm loving lucite, too! I saw Joss & Main had lots of lucite tables and coffee tables on sale this week, but I am so pathetically broke that I couldn't buy any of it.
Girl. You are going to rock that living room. Even with the deer head, but good choice with the all white. I'm excited to see the progress!
