It’s the little things that make me wish it was April 1. Right now. Not because I have a really good April Fool’s. But to get my ass into that apartment. Pronto.
No worries – I am so inspired by my new blogs that I stalk, that I’ll so be posting pictures. Yes, there will be photos of this journey. And we start with this photo debate.
Currently, my comforter set is a brown background with rose colored squiggles and flowers doodled on it. I say doodled because it’s the best description. Cowboy says its pink and not rose; and even it were rose, he is not sleeping in a girly bed. OK – I found that puppy at TJ Maxx and I can never, ever find anything at TJ Maxx.! I got over that initial shocker and saw the bright side: brand new bed linens, oh my, can you imagine anything more fun that that?
I should also let you know, that I am a super freak and love the smell of new bath/bed linens. Love it! I’ve been on the hunt for the perfect bed. I have a king size bed making it a nightmare to shop for these things at Marshalls, Ross or TJ Maxx. They never seem to have anything cute in my size. Leading me straight to the full price stores and as you can imagine, a pain in my wallet. King size = $100 plus. Always.
I started my search at my fave, Target. I found the first picture below. It’s cream and orange. And has cute little birdies on it and a design Cowboy is down for. Then there is the picture below it, from Pillows & Throws. It’s grey and orange – from the website’s description those are woodland animals in the design. Cowboy likes this one as well.
Why all the orange? My bathroom color scheme is currently orange and chocolate. I get great compliments on it. The best part, in my opinion, are the accessories: I found cream color with orange coral designed toothbrush holder, soap dish and pump dispenser at 80% off at Stein Mart a few years back. I love them and I’m keeping them. I always wanted my bedroom and bathroom to kind of go hand in hand. I didn’t want it to seem like you walk into a completely different room. I’m keeping the orange in the bathroom.
There we have it, installation for the move in/decorating.

The first one is really pretty. It has a bit of an Asian flare. The second one is hard to see.
May I suggest you also try JC Penny's, Overstock.com and Smartbargins.com.
They have good prices!!
The bedding is not something I would go for personally, but I'm sure you'll be able to pull it off just perfectly. Plus, as soon as I saw it I thought your bathroom.
