Reunited and it feels so GOOD!

  i know, its been awhile....but i've been crazy busy.  the wedding, trip to rhode island then i had to work in north carolina and now we're off back and forth to savannah to meet painters and prep our house for MOVE IN!  i will def. do a post about the wedding after this...but in the front of my mind is house decor.  so i'm jumping right in.  we're going to start by painting the kitchen/breakfast nook, dining room and office.  the office we already know....greyish blue with a black desk for brett and all his army medals framed on the walls.
 Office inspiration.









even though we decided not to tackle the master yet, i found a picture that i LOVE.  we have a sleigh bed in dark brown so it won't be a direct translation but inspiration.

bedroom.







 living room inspiration.  we're keeping the walls their color of
vanilla-y beige. and our couches are mocha beige like this but a smidge darker so its doable.








i'm LOVING this dining table.  our floors are brown hardwood and kitchen cabinets are dark cherry wood so i wanted to break up the darkness.  i think this is PERFECTIONNNNNNN!  my friend megan has a store in BR and she refinishes furniture.  she has these four dining chairs that she said she would recover them when i decided what i'm doing with the room.  possible wall color is peacock blue/tealish????  i tend to gravitate towards cooler colors...why is that? maybe b/c I'M so COOOOL!?!?!!   hahaha jk

For the kitchen/nook, i'm thinking a soft-ish grey....i don't know why. i just can't come up with another color that i'm ok with painting it.  hmmmmmm.......


ok and here are some items i'd like to incorporate somewhere in the house...i just love them :)












is that ok?    k, just checkin'.   i'm got to be sure to not to get TOO girly (which isn't me) but rather too Anthropologie b/c that's not brett.  it is OUR house....i guess.  the tough part is implementing all these ideas.  any help???
but do you know what's keeping me up at night.....BLINDS!  i don't know which kind of blind to put in each room....i know its bizarre but new construction doesn't come with any so we have to get them all.
here's the link to all the house pics on kodak if anyone wants to check it out!
