I decided I was going to go all out this time. When we got out first apartment I contemplated painting- I hate boring walls. Which is probably why I have thousands of things on my walls now. I decided against painting because 1. I had so much stuff on my walls I didn't feel like taking it all down and having to find the existing holes. Lazy me I guess. & 2. I couldn't figure out how I would paint that apartment. I have decided that I WILL in fact paint this new apartment.
So the thing that I really like about our complex, is that we don't have white walls. All of the walls are like a light beige. You can tell they aren't white, and they make the place feel warm. So I don't have to paint all the walls, I am just going to do accent walls.
Living Room/ Kitchen- So our living room and kitchen have a Black, Red, Brown thing going on. I have red accents everywhere but our furniture is black and brown. We love the colors, and it feels very warm. Our Kitchen has an Italian theme going on with it. I love it. So I was thinking I would do the Back wall, the entire wall dark red. I have a big black framed mirror that I will be hanging on it, and some pictures, so I think it will look really awesome (: I also might use that same red in one of the walls in the kitchen. I am a little weary about painting the kitchen, but we will see when the time comes.
I have all the décor for my living room that I want, I just need to find new curtains and the living room and kitchen will be done!
Bedroom- Right now, in our current apartment, our bedroom is a huge freaking mess. I hate it. I never show our guests our bedroom. Our room is too small for our king bed and we have stuff everywhere. So I am cleaning it out this week. Our new apartment has a huge master bedroom. I am going to focus on our bedroom this time and have come up with a color scheme. I am going to go with a gray, tan, and white. I found this awesome gray and tan bedding set on Kohls.com that I think I am going to order. Then for the accent wall, I want to do gray stripes over the existing beige walls. and then Paint one other wall in the bedroom solid gray. Then over time I will get a lot of white accents to put on the built in shelves in the bedroom, Maybe Find a white Clock, and an all white scentsy. So when I say gray, I mean more like a silver/bluish gray. So its pretty and light, not drabby. We have a sliding glass door in our bedroom so one of my priorities is to get curtains up as soon as possible. I know that funds will not allow me to get all of this stuff done in one weekend, but I hope I can get it all done sooner rather than later!
Right now we have an ugly wooden dresser. Lol I would like to get rid of it, or paint it white. I don't know what my husband will say about that yet.
Bathrooms- I haven't really come up with anything yet. I need to go buy new shower curtains for BOTH bathrooms. Our cat has completely messed up the one we have now. I'd like to come up with a whole new theme or color idea for our master bathroom and I'll put our current bathroom things in the guest bathroom. We will see how much money I am able to spend on all of it.
