Update on my loft

I got the new desk put together and curtains hung.  My curtains are my inspiration for the room, but once I got them up and lived with them for a week or two, I'm not sure that is what I want in that room.  They just put off the wrong vibe for that room.  So, now I'm not sure how I want to decorate that room.  Ugg.  On the other hand I love the desk!  It will be great with whatever I do.

My garage is is filled with DI finds that are ready to be refinished.  I just need my back to heal up so I can get back to work.  They have been sitting there for two weeks, ugg.  But now that my color scheme will change I will need to go back to Home-Depot for different paint.

For the new color pallet I'm thinking about a crisp light blue with a soft light green.  My walls a taupe with a golden under hue and the desk is a coffee color, that will work right?  Anyway, I will post a picture of the room with the curtains when my camera is finished charging, I would love some advice!  So, please feel free to dispense any pearls of wisdom on this humble first time decorator.

If you have seen this website then you will already know of its awesomeness but if not, behold the greatest DYI blog for custom furniture: http://knockoffwood.blogspot.com/

Knock Off Wood

I LOVE this site and I can't wait to put some of these together!  We gave our old downstairs TV to Clay, my brother, so now there is a 'media' type nook/pop out in my living room.  We are going to build cabinets and shelves Ana from Knock Off Wood has a great plan that will fit our space.  Just another project to add to my list, sigh!
